I was worried they were going to give Poggi a one year interim deal or simply settle with hiring Brohm. Wittingham is a superior hire to Brohm and the kind of hire you make if you're serious about turning the culture around at Michigan.

Speaking of Culture. If the guy spent the last 30 years in Utah, he's going to find life in Ann Arbor.......interesting.

Drunk on Vernor’s?

I get thrown off by college teams that have teal as a color since that color wasn’t invented until the 1990s.  New Mexico has some teally looking shirts on today.  Coastal Carolina adorns itself in the hue.

I completely forgot that Kelly was once the 49ers head coach.

What WRs worth a damn has Sherrone recruited and added to this team? Maybe Andrew Marsh develops into a legit #1 WR. Whether it was Sherrone or Whittingham, WR is one of this teams biggest needs and they were going to have to hit the portal for a good one in all likelihood. I think Whittingham and his staff should be reaching out to Marsh and working to get him in maize and blue next year.

i'm fine with reaching out to him and seeing what he thinks.  i wouldnt break the bank to bring him in.

i'm more concerned with losing andrew marsh than gaining nick marsh.  spend your money on the guy you already have.

We've got Larry Ellison money, spend big on both. Outside of WR and the need to develop Underwood, did Michigan have a bigger need this past season in-terms of players on the field.

well, in theory the NIL gravy train is supposed to be over. The school has ~$20M total to spread around the whole varsity program, and any NIL earned by players beyond has to be for actual services rendered. We'll see how much of a joke that does or doesn't turn out to be.

It’s Larry Ellison’s 6th wife’s money.   He’s 81 so maybe this is the last and final bag holder but odds say he wants something new before it stops working completely.    Michigan needs to take advantage as much as they can before the well runs dry.

Larry needs to go back to sailing.

michigan alums havr plenty of money.  the only folks that worry about michigan's nil money cannon are you and G2.

It's not worry, it's despair.

Yes it is time to rethink it. They'll never do it, but the college football playoff games should emanate from home stadiums of the higher seeded teams. Only for the championship game should it be at a neutral site.
