Michigan football coaches aim to improve passing attack
Summary

Michigan football coaches are making efforts to enhance the team's passing game. The Wolverines ranked 107th in passing offense last season and 131st the year before. As they bring in top quarterback prospect Bryce Underwood, coaches are looking to attract elite wide receivers. Wide receivers coach Micah Simon noted their balanced offensive approach at past programs. Michigan hopes improved offensive performance will persuade recruits like Dakota Guerrant to reconsider their commitments. The Wolverines currently have a commitment from four-star wide receiver Quentin Burrell for the 2027 class.
