Mike Boynton Jr. nearly completes coaching staff after retaining core of Dusty May regime
When Mike Boynton Jr. accepted the job as Michigan’s next head men’s basketball coach, his priorities were clear. Before drawing up game plans or worrying about recruiting the next class, he first had to keep the roster intact. Right behind that came preserving as much of the program’s infrastructure as possible. Considering the circumstances, Boynton […]

Michigan Football 2026 opponent preview: UTEP
The Michigan Wolverines have a matchup with the UTEP Miners coming up this season. Heading into the third season under Scotty Walden, the Miners have had little success in the past few years.

Meet new Michigan men’s basketball assistant coach Mike Martin
Former Brown head coach Mike Martin has officially joined the Michigan men’s basketball coaching staff after spending 14 seasons leading his alma mater. His 171-202 record doesn’t immediately jump off the page, but Brown isn’t an easy place to win. He is the program’s all-time winningest coach, earned Ivy League Coach of the Year in 2019 and […]
Exclusive: Michigan Football OL Brady Norton competing for RG job, 2026 expectations, more
Brady Norton has taken an unconventional path to becoming one of Michigan’s most versatile offensive linemen. Now, heading into 2026, he is focused on turning that versatility into mastery at one position. With an offseason with new position coach Jim Harding’s guidance and a clear home on the interior, Norton spoke exclusively with Maize n […]
Column: Michigan’s crisis communications strategy is a masterclass in what NOT to do
Believe it or not, Maize n Brew is not my full-time job. I am also a public relations professional, so I’d like to think I know how to get ahead of a story, control a narrative and make a bad story a one-day story instead of a week-long one. Well, what the University of Michigan […]
DE Dominic Nichols’ path to Michigan Football, outlook for 2026
Dominic Nichols was a criminally underrated recruit coming out of high school. At Michigan, he immediately burst onto the scene in practice and parlayed that into a rotational role by his second season in Ann Arbor. Now a junior, Nichols is a breakout candidate and will look to snag a starting spot over some established […]
Why Andrew Marsh could be Michigan Football’s first 1,000-yard WR since 2013
It’s been 13 years since the Michigan Wolverines had a wide receiver eclipse the 1,000-yard plateau in a single season, but Andrew Marsh is primed to end the drought in 2026. Coming off a record-setting freshman season, Marsh is expected to be the top receiving target for Michigan this season, and his explosiveness gives him […]

J.P. Estrella reveals why he decided to stay with Michigan Basketball
The transfer from Tennessee is joining the Wolverines for the 2026-27 season. J.P. Estrella told Brian Boesch on Defend the Block he first connected with head coach Dusty May when he entered the portal.

U-M President reveals why Warde Manuel will be AD until the end of 2026
University of Michigan President Domenico Grasso announced on Monday morning in a YouTube video that Warde Manuel will be stepping down as athletics director at the end of the calendar year.

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 […]
Survey Results: Will Mike Boynton Jr. win a national championship as Michigan’s head coach?
Earlier this week, we asked fans if Michigan men’s basketball’s new head coach, Mike Boynton Jr., can win a national championship with the Wolverines.

The Top 25 Michigan men’s basketball players since 1989: No. 7
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 […]
