UM top 3 in several Way too early 2023 Football Rankings

Submitted by Cobra5476 on January 9th, 2023 at 8:59 AM

As the title says, "Way too early" but still fun to look at. UM returns a loaded roster and should be the favorites for the Big Ten and a return to the CFP.  When the actual pre-season rankings come out they should still be the highest ranked Big Ten Team and anywhere from 2-5.  (Obviously these should be taken with a grain of salt)

When you look at the "Talent Rankings" (currently ranked 13th), UM football has punched above its weight for at least two years.   The difference is the coaching.  In order for UM football to stay where it is (beating OSU, winning the B1G, CPF appearance) we need top level coaching since we won't out recruit the likes of the top blue chip programs (Bama, OSU, Georgia).

Jadyn Davis “has great relationship with Penn State” from another site. Very concerned the 2024 class will be a downer again due to the NFL flirtation. Time will tell.
