The Wolverine

out with a bang my senior year," said linebacker James Ross. "I can speak for all of us, we want to go out on top." THE TOP FOUR CONTRIBUTORS SO FAR 1. Joe Bolden, LB: Among the 25 original members of the 2012 class, nine have started 10 or more games but productivity has not been overly significant. Devin Funchess had 126 receptions and 15 touchdowns be- fore leaving for the NFL one year early. Bolden has Class of 2012 highs in tackles (187) and tackles for loss (12.0), and is third in career starts (15). 2. Jarrod Wilson, S: A two-year starter in the secondary, Wilson has produced staggeringly consistent numbers, recording exactly 50 tackles and two pass breakups in both 2013 and 2014. He had two tackles for loss in his sophomore year and one in his junior season. 3. Amara Darboh, WR: After mak- ing 36 grabs in his "debut" season in 2014 — he played in four games offensively as a rookie in 2012 before missing all of 2013 with a foot in- jury — Darboh is poised for a break- out year, but how big? Among the 17 Wolverines all-time with 30 or more catches as sophomores, they averaged 48 receptions in their junior years. 4. Willie Henry & Chris Wormley, DL: Largely interchangeable parts up front, Henry has an edge in starts (12- 6), but Wormley has had more defen- sive appearances (25-21). The two have been good for 18 tackles for loss (8.5 for Henry and 9.5 for Wormley) and nine sacks (3.5 for Henry and 5.5 for Wormley), recording a stop behind the line of scrimmage once every five combined takedowns. READY TO MAKE AN IMPACT THIS FALL Royce Jenkins-Stone, LB: A for- mer four-star recruit, Jenkins-Stone is eager to become a major contributor. In 36 career games, mostly on special teams, he has 19 tackles. However, he was the best of the BUCK/rush linebackers in the spring and is deter- mined to finish the job by winning a starting spot in fall camp. Redshirt junior wideout Amara Darboh played in just four games due to injuries before posting 36 catches last year. PHOTO BY LON HORWEDEL
