Michigan Wolverines football junior safety Makari Paige, graduate left tackle Ryan Hayes and senior wide receiver Cornelius Johnson met with the media Tuesday night ahead of their team’s Saturday afternoon game against UConn.

Hayes and Johnson both touched on how senior quarterback Cade McNamara has responded to not being named the starting quarterback and his mood in the building. Hayes discussed the offensive line and assessed its performance through 2 weeks, and Johnson broke down his pair of big plays against Hawai’i. Paige took viewers through his journey from reserve to significant contributor and revealed what held him back in the past.
