he was not likely to start but he was in a 3-way battle for the starting LT position with 2024 starting RT Evan Link (RS Soph.) and RS Fr. Blake Frazier- but 5* true frosh LT Andrew Babalola has suffered an undisclosed injury in camp and will redshirt. WOTS is ACL/knee - but Michigan coaches are extremely tight lipped about injuries.
Babalola is a freak of nature with imposing size but very new to the game football- just started playing in HS as a JR- probably should've redshirted regardless but the injury sucks and will slow his development a bit.
My hope was always that RS Fr. Blake Frazier seizes the LT job- he dealt with some injuries last year and hasn't quite cracked 300 lbs yet- might still be a year away.
