Rivals.com Ranks Michigan’s LB Duo The Best 1-2 Punch In The Country

[AdSense-A]

 

Rivals.com not only has Michigan’s DE duo of James Hudson and Luiji Vilain the No. 1 of any program in the country in 2017, but the Wolverines’ also have the top linebacker pairing of Drew Singleton and Jordan Anthony:

Farrell’s take: These two will complement each other as Singleton is long, athletic and can cover a ton of ground while Anthony could play the Jabrill Peppers role if needed in the Michigan defense — he’s that talented. More likely, they will each play outside linebacker, with Singleton as a SAM and Anthony as a WILL, and each will have different roles with Anthony more likely to get after the quarterback as a blitzing linebacker.

Anthony is ranked as the No. 26 recruit in the country while Singleton is 52. Georgia and Alabama’s linebackers finished 2nd and 3rd.
