2016 FOOTBALL RECRUITING ISSUE hind the ball — or close to the line of scrimmage. He is the No. 9 junior in Michigan and No. 21 safety nation- ally. SPECIAL TEAMS Scholarship Players In 2017: 3 Need: 1 Commits: 0 Long snapper Scott Sypniewski could be back for a fifth year after starting for the Wolverines at long snapper this past season, but Michi- gan probably won't use a scholarship on a long snapper going forward. U-M is set to have two scholarship kickers on the roster in 2017, redshirt sophomore Andrew David and re- cent three-star signee Quinn Nordin, but neither is a natural punter, thus the Wolverines will probably sign one. ❏ Jaylen Kelly-Powell of Detroit Cass Tech is listed as a three-star recruit, the No. 9 junior in Michigan and the No. 21 safety in the country by Rivals.com.
