Lack of proper oversight has allowed Michigan’s controversies to persist
There’s no mistaking the excellence that Michigan’s athletic programs have put together in recent memory. In just the last three years, the school’s two biggest programs — football and men’s basketball — have won national championships. Michigan has also continued to excel in non-revenue sports, with hockey, gymnastics and women’s basketball, among others, competing with […]
Michigan will have a new football and basketball coach at the same time…again
Win a national championship, lose the head coach. It might not be the most desirable situation to be in, but if we are being honest, the trade-off here is not completely unfair. No one wanted to see Jim Harbaugh or Dusty May leave, but they did what their predecessors could not, so only so much […]

We’re well into the top-10 in our offseason list of the top-25 Michigan men’s basketball players since 1989. While the model was really strong, there was a surprise that snuck above some Michigan legends. And had he played in Ann Arbor at a different time, he likely could have earned similar love. Let’s remember four-year […]
DE Cameron Brandt’s path to Michigan Football, outlook for 2026
The Michigan defensive line has seen a lot of change this offseason. Three starters and a couple extra rotational pieces either graduated or moved on from the program. That includes Derrick Moore and Jaishawn Barham, two edge rushers picked in the early rounds of April’s NFL Draft. But one name that stands out heading into […]
Michigan Football fans think this TE will lead the group in receiving in 2026
On Monday, I posted on The Feed to ask which tight end you guys think will lead the position in receiving yards in 2026. Unlike the last two weeks, the results for this week’s poll were much closer. At the top of the group was Hogan Hansen (48 percent) and Zack Marshall (38 percent). Deakon […]
Friday Discussion: Which non-Savion Hiter freshman are you most excited about?
The 2026 recruiting class for the Michigan Wolverines is one of the better classes they have had in recent years. 247Sports and On3 both have it ranked just outside the Top 10 nationally, coming in at No. 11. While five-star running back Savion Hiter is obviously the headliner, there is depth and quality throughout the […]

Michigan Football 2026 position group breakdown: Running backs
Michigan football has an identity. I don’t even need to say it — you’re probably already picturing it. October. Cold weather. Under the lights. Hand the ball off. Three-yard gain. Rinse and repeat.

Michigan Football Coaching Spotlight: Jay Hill
Very similar to the hire of offensive coordinator Jason Beck, head coach Kyle Whittingham’s decision on who he picked to fill the defensive coordinator vacancy seemed quite obvious.

Michigan DE John Henry Daley’s path to Michigan, outlook for 2026
Michigan made a splash in the transfer portal and added one of the most coveted pass rushers. John Henry Daley could be the best player Michigan’s had at defensive end since Aidan Hutchinson.

Predicting where will College GameDay and Big Noon Kickoff be this fall
Nothing identifies a big game in college football like ESPN’s College GameDay coming to town.
