Michael Barrett details decision to return to Michigan

Following five years of college football littered with twists, turns and transformations, Michigan Wolverines linebacker Michael Barrett has finally arrived to his final college offseason.

He announced prior to the deadline for the NFL Draft he’d be back in Ann Arbor for his sixth and final year. The former high school quarterback-turned Viper-turned-traditional-linebacker has made a name for himself the last two seasons under Mike Macdonald and Jesse Minter.

Now, after a successful 2022 campaign — 72 total tackles, five tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks and two interceptions returned for touchdowns — Barrett will look to improve upon his skillset to improve his draft stock.
