There are few players in the history of Michigan Wolverines' football that went through as important of a transition as Mike Sainristil did and succeeded. Coming into Ann Arbor as a three-star recruit who only held nine Power 5 offers, Sainristil switched positions. In doing so, he became one of the most important contributors and a leader of one of the best teams in college football.
The story so far
It was clear that as soon as Sainristil got on campus, Jim Harbaugh and the coaching staff saw something. As a freshman in 2019, he played in all 13 games on the special teams unit and appeared at wide receiver multiple times.
