Summary
Jon identifies some under-the-radar Wolverines who could become much more well known by the time September rolls around (5:30) and dissects some of the differences in recruiting now that the transfer portal is such a critical component to college football (17:00) in this week's "Seven from 77." Then, Jon sits down with the Wolverines' two Indiana transfers - quarterback Jack Tuttle and tight end A.J. Barner. Tuttle discusses his journey to Ann Arbor (24:00), what he brings to the program (26:30), and his future goals on campus and within football (31:00). Barner talks through the process of coming to Ann Arbor (33:30), some of his goals as he gets acclimated to the program (36:30), and the opportunity to play with Tuttle again (40:00).
