Michigan football fans are eagerly anticipating the new faces that will step up and take on greater responsibility in the upcoming season. While there is much speculation, former Wolverine and current color commentator Devin Gardner has some insight to offer.
Gardner, who now works for Fox Sports and Bally Sports, still has a strong connection to his alma mater and believes that sophomore Fredrick Moore has the potential to make a significant impact in the 2024 season. Despite the attention surrounding other players like Tyler Morris and Semaj Morgan, Gardner sees Moore as a player who could rise to the occasion.
Describing Moore as a special talent with good speed and solid performance in the spring game, Gardner compares him to standout Alabama receiver Jerry Jeudy. Moore, who appeared in 13 games as a freshman last year, showed glimpses of his potential with four catches for 32 yards. In the spring game, he made a strong impression with two catches for 76 yards, including a 48-yard touchdown.
Gardner’s endorsement of Moore has sparked excitement among Michigan fans, who are eager to see how the young receiver will contribute to the team’s success in the coming season. With Gardner’s stamp of approval, Moore is poised to become a name that fans will quickly recognize and cheer for as he takes on a bigger role in the offense.
