Michigan Football Fall Camp Day 2 — Saturday, August 7

Michigan's account provided some photos from the second day of practice, including of co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Sherrone Moore, coaching up the position group he took over this offseason after mentoring the team's tight ends for three seasons (2018-20).

Also included were pictures of the defensive line hitting the sled, junior defensive end Aidan Hutchinson pointing to the sky and redshirt sophomore cornerback Gemon Green having some fun in between drills.

Near the tail end of practice, the Blue Angels performed a flyover of the fields, the perfect way to cap off an eventful weekend. The planes were Boeing's F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet fighter jets, the newest highly capable, tactical aircraft in the U.S. Navy.
