The presumed starting quarterback spoke to the media about what he's improved on this summer and what he still needs to do.
Michigan has the pleasure -- or pressure -- of replacing a top 10 NFL Draft pick for the 2024 football season. Now-Vikings' quarterback J.J. McCarthy led the charge for the Michigan offense the past two seasons. He was 27-1 as the starting quarterback in Ann Arbor. McCarthy led the Wolverines to two Big Ten titles and a national title.
Orji says he's working on becoming more of that vocal leader in the huddle. If he does indeed become the starting quarterback this fall, he will have to be used to commanding the huddle by that time, and it's something that he's improved on this summer -- along with his mechanics as a passer.

"I couldn't tell you what I need to do in order to be ready for something so far in the future," Orji said on if he's ready for Week 2. "I think that if I keep preparing myself and getting ready for tomorrow, eventually that day is going to be tomorrow. I think listening to what Coach Moore has for us, especially what Coach Campbell says, the offense goes where the O-line goes, offense goes as he calls it.
