An elite freshman on defense Michigan football fans can't forget about

Michigan football might have the best defense in all of college football this season, especially if one of the Wolverines' talented freshmen can live up to expectations.

That player is Shamari Earls, a 6-foot-2, 203-pound cornerback who isn't being discussed enough by fans or analysts.

It's easy to overlook players in the same class as Bryce Underwood. He stole the show. But Earls, a player that Michigan football flipped from Georgia, ranked 85th overall, according to the 247 Sports composite rankings.

A dynamic addition for Michigan football

Earls was a dynamic two-way player in high school.
