  "account": "Ann Arbor, Mich. -- Michigan football fans were focused on former five-star running back Savion Hiter, but fellow five-star defensive end Carter Meadows made his way to Ann Arbor in the summer. Coach Kyle Whittingham expects Meadows to see action in his freshman year, despite the depth of the edge rusher room. Meadows has impressed his teammates with his performance in fall camp. Senior edge rusher Cam Brandt calls Meadows a \"great kid\" who is \"a freak\" and makes plays in practice. Meadows and fellow recruit Tariq Boney, who also has to navigate the bridge program, have exceeded expectations and are making the most of their limited practice time. Sophomore Benny Patterson has also garnered attention for his potential. Fans can anticipate seeing these edge rushers in action on September 5 when Michigan hosts Western Michigan.",
