8 ■ THE WOLVERINE 2021 FOOTBALL PREVIEW MICHIGAN FOOTBALL Notes: • Our unofficial count, done in early June, has Michigan with 86 players on scholarship, over the NCAA limit of 85 — but that doesn't count three former walk-ons who, at one point, were awarded a scholarship, or seniors granted an extra year of eligibility that won't count against the limit. • 2020 was deemed a "free year" for eligibility by the NCAA, meaning that all freshmen from that season are once again freshmen this year, and so on.
