Sherrone Moore’s QB dilemma has gone to new heights! First Davis Warren, then Alex Orji, and then the seventh-year QB Jack Tuttle, who fell below everyone’s expectations. “We’ll see as we practice this week,” Sherrone Moore said of Tuttle after leading two back-to-back losses to Washington and Illinois. Little did he know the 4-star QB had his own plans.

An X post by Pete Thamel on October 29 reported that Jack Tuttle is retiring from college football. As cited, the senior QB has faced health problems stemming from his aggravated UCL repair. After suffering his fifth concussion, he made the ultimate decision to quit playing and prioritize his health after an injury-prone career. While it’s sad to see this talented player leave, we can hope to see more of him, as he said, “Though closing this chapter is unfortunate, my passion for football will always be a part of me. I am committed to finding a different role in the game and plan to pursue a role in coaching.”

Jack Tuttle appeared in two games this season, completing 30 of 50 passes for 306 yards, one touchdown, and four turnovers. In his last game against Illinois, his performance was rusty, as he completed 20 of 32 passes for 208 yards and an interception, leading to a shameful 21-7 defeat. 

Tuttle first played at Utah as a college freshman in 2018. Then he signed with Indiana for four seasons before transferring to Michigan in 2023 for his sixth college football season. He finished his CFB career with 1,337 yards and seven touchdowns. With his retirement, Sherrone Moore will likely continue using Warren as their main QB, who led them to a 24-17 win against Michigan State last Saturday. But even if they’re 5-3 right now, Michigan is still winning on the recruitment front. 

Sherrone Moore wins in recruitment

Michigan currently ranks No. 12 in the nation in the 2025 recruiting class. 17 players have committed to the program, consisting of 5-star OT Andrew Babalola, seven 4-star commits, and nine 3-star commits. They still have elite prospects on their radar, including Georgia commit Shamari Earls, who flipped his commitment from South Carolina. The 4-star LB was present at the Michigan vs Michigan State rivalry game, marking his second unofficial visit to Ann Arbor. 

A flip would mean a third commitment for him but the interest is still there. He said, “Michigan has just always been in the back of me and my family’s mind. I’ve got a good relationship with Coach Morgan; how good all the other staff is; how everybody in here just treats you so well… there’s something here.” Even On3 RPM predicts a 43.1% chance that Earls will flip to Michigan. Still, losing a player abruptly is painful. Hopefully, Sherrone Moore and Co. will pull themselves together because right now, they need their full focus on their game as they’ll face No. 1 Oregon next.
