He's the current favorite to be Michigan's starting quarterback this fall, and it's easy to see why after spending a day with him at a youth football camp in Detroit.
, hosted hundreds of Detroit-area kids who were eager to hear from - and learn from - the presumed starting quarterback at the University of Michigan.
I was fortunate enough to witness some of the behind the scenes aspects of the camp, including the morning meeting where QB coachspent time working through his plan for the afternoon. Orji was heavily involved in that meeting, suggesting various drills for the young quarterbacks the execute throughout the day. Following the meeting, Orji made his way to the gym where hundreds of young athletes were waiting, and the kids couldn't have been more excited to meet him.
Ultimately, an impressive performance at a youth camp over the summer won't be the determining factor for Orji's success this fall. Even as the presumptive starter heading into fall camp, he'll need to continue to go out and win the job every single time he steps on the field - including fall Saturdays. The recent success of the football program has created extremely high expectations in Ann Arbor , and the good news is that Orji seems more than ready to be the guy who leads the way.
