Michigan Tuesday: Iggy Named Freshman of The Year

Iggy was named the Big Ten Freshman of the year.  First honor for a Wolverine since Trey Burke in 2011 - 2012.   The rest of Michigan starters made an All Big Ten Team or honorable mentioned.

• Devin Funchess is going to Indy on a 1 year contract at $13M.   Should get a few more looks with Luck under center.  

• So the Greg Mattison jump to OSU makes a little more sense to me now.  Greg was making $900K a year as Michigan DC's, his latest contract at Michigan was $525K, OSU is paying him $1.1M a year.   The Wolverines cut his salary by $400K and OSU was looking to double it.  It wasn't a Maize and Blue vs. Scarlett and Gray thing, it was all about the GREEN.

• Michigan makes top 5 for 2020 Aurora (CO) Eaglecrest four-star center Reece Atteberry.  Others included OSU, Duke, ND, and Nebraska. 

• Michigan also makes top 6 for 2020  Louisville OT John Young.   Also on the list: Georgia, Purdue, Louisville, Kentucky, and Ohio State.
