MGoBlog: The MGoPodcastWTKA Roundtable 1/29/2026: Regarding Fred Hoiberg's Laurels
Things Discussed:
Nebraska: Nearly won that game shorthanded. Got great performances from replacements but ran their starters into the ground.
Craig's analysis: Hoiberg decided to play some football. Steamroller screens and the like. Nebraska just made contested threes in the first half that they missed in the second half. Sam Hoiberg is straight up good: understands basketball, understands how to organize a team, understands how to get the ball to his guys. Second half Michigan did press the press the edges a little tighter.
Kenpom tracks 2 point distance. We're thrilled. Seth: The most important stats in basketball are...

MGoBlog: The MGoPodcastWTKA Roundtable 1/22/2026: Fear the Hoo
Things Discussed:
IU national champions: Most unlikely championships in the history of sports. Credit Cignetti and top to bottom program management.
How did they do it? Talent evaluation is elite. Built like 2023 Michigan: develop a lot of your own guys and then surgically found guys in the portal.
Seth: Lesson for the rest of CFB is ROI: IU wasn't paying that much for their JMU guys, wasn't spending to have 5-stars learning to play on the three-deep. Focus shifting from Ty Haywoods (super talented, needs 3 years) to Blake Frazier (ready now) because there's no guarantee you'll get any...

Thing Discussed:
Portal: You can't make an OL in the portal—keeping Guarnera and Sprague was huge. Wide receiver room is night and day from before. They put a secondary back together. Concern over LB and don't have an impact DT.
Seth: After all that everyone is back where they were. Lucky for Michigan that everyone's a free agent but this is a terrible way to run the sport.
Why does everybody forget Chase Taylor? You're going to learn his name this year.

Impressed that they stabilized the program so quickly.
Portal recruiting happens in December; they're playing from behind because IU was setting up all of these visits weeks ago. Notice they're getting special teams guys because Coombs was already in his job.
Whittingham as Crisler (Brian: [moans]), as an established outsider who locked down Harmon to survive the transition. That was the end of the Yost Cycle, and likewise this is the end of the Bo Cycle. What...

Thing Discussed:
Women's hoops talk: This is the best team in Michigan history. They're tiny up front but they've got a lot of length on the perimeter and are generating a ton of steals. Hung with the best UConn team in a minute for 3 quarters.
Reading the DeBoer comments: When someone's at a terminal job he gets to hog both lanes. Our read on it is DeBoer is making the comments you make if you're going to consider Michigan AFTER the Playoff.
Timeline is our enemy: if Bama beats Oklahoma Michigan will probably move on to Dillingham and...

The assistant he had an affair with? We don't know—not exonerated but also let's be conscious that sharing her name and photo and history of an unfamous person irreversibly makes her famous for This, for life. It also has a chill effect on other women caught in illicit relationships with powerful men, and we have a public interest in making sure that math favors coming forward, no...

MGoBlog: The MGoPodcastWTKA Roundtable 12/4/2025: What's the Dog Number
FOOTBALL v OHIO STATE
Offense had some neat ideas in the run game, not so much the passing game.
Problem with not running read options all year is Bryce blew too many of them.
Sherrone is a run guy, had some great run tweaks, but it ended up costing them in the passing game as Bryce was cold—gotta throw on early downs if you're going to be a successful passing team.
Defensively it was worse when we looked. "Only 27 points" is because they only had nine possessions and one of the killed the game in the 3rd an...

MGoBlog: The MGoPodcastWTKA Roundtable 11/20/2025: RPO Investment Strategies
Things Discussed:
FOOTBALL v NORTHWESTERN
When not being a terrible freshman Bryce was a five-star freshman. Some incredible throws in this one. Not that mad about 2nd interception because that was on the OC.
Lindsey's gameplan of RPOs (ten Split Flows!) was perfect against Dantonio-style quarters. Got 70% of their yards, which is more important for future performance.
RPOs were also good for getting Bryce feeling comfortable. We have a freshman but also a five-star, and he looked like one. Sam: Note the first drive was downfield passing!
That throw to Andrew Marsh: wow.

Aday Mara holy crap. He was last year's on-off numbers while playing 37/45 minutes. When he was on the floor Wake Forest was 27% at the rim.
M needs to figure out the rest. Loosening balls but not converting them to turnovers. Have three bigs on the floor and none know how to box out because they were the rebounding alphas.
Three Bigs? Don't think it's going to work because Morez Johnson taking a three in the flow of the offense isn't going...

Defense: Purdue was very college crappe. I asked them to be vanilla, they were, and I'll take my lumps.
Mad at special teams for not putting them back enough because the way Purdue plays they need to be able to take a TFL or a sack, or need to have a 4th down strategy.

His RPO reads are on point. Chip is doing a great job with him.
How do they keep finding these TEs?
Michigan made a lot of young guy mistakes but also overcame them because they have kids who can step up.

Is it coaching or players? I say coaching, because there's no point in running the stuff, even if it's good stuff, if you don't have the coaching points down, and the #1 coaching points are not in.
They're going to have to simplify, stick to some basics until they can run all of this stuff.

Things Discussed:
Happy Yankees Elimination Day to all who celebrate, and Guardians Elimination Week to the celebrants.
What do we talk about when we're off-air? K-Pop.
Pass protection vs Wisconsin: Michigan thought they could do it—Brian and Sam/PFF disagree whether there were pass pro issues from the tackles. There were stunt issues on the young guards, but 15% pressure rate is fine, thought for the most part they handled the DEs pretty well.
Offensive design was great. Stick and move: Wisconsin was ready to defend stretch and Michigan hit them with a stretch beater for a that bi...

Note: I wanted a photo of Crippen but Flickr has a bug right now that won't let us access most of our images.
Things Discussed:
Nebraska: Hero is Greg Crippen, stretch blocker extraordinaire. M is a stretch team, which emphasizes your center. Playing two backup guards but they were good too (mostly—2 errors for Guarnera, 3 for Efobi). Link…sometimes he just doesn't know what he's doing, still leagues better than last year.

Biff Poggi love: We don't often get honesty about what they did wrong.
Let Underwood cook? Not sure if it's going to hold up because people revert to learned behaviors when stress gets high. It's easy against Central.
We saw enough that Oklahoma should be a blip: the RPOs are real, the zone reads are real.
QB run game: Forces defenses to make themselves easier to read, because they have to play 11-on-11 unless they can two-gap at the DT spots.
Oklahoma and Nebraska are good at messing with a quarterback's reads, and Bryce wants to m...

Things Discussed:
Story time with Craig: Where the name Sooners comes from: it's the guys who cheated to get to the land stolen from the Indians.
Oklahoma: Ultraconservatism made it feel like they're not trying to win this game. Every time they got to a decision point they made the conservative call. They ran on 3rd & 6, got four yards, and kicked a field goal. They punted rather than give ZVADA a shot at a 55-yarder. They kicked (and missed) a FG with 3 minutes before the half on 4th & 2 instead of trying to end the half.

MGoBlog: The MGoPodcastWTKA Roundtable 9/4/2025: Assuming He's Human
Things Discussed:
Bryce: NO CEILING. Most talented quarterback in the history of the program.
Offense will need to mitigate pass pro, Link was okay against a Keyshaun James-Newby. Think it'll be like 2023 offense.
OL? Crippen's kind of game: more of a mental test than a physical one, because New Mexico had to slant and stunt etc.
Will need to use Bryce's legs in Oklahoma.
Chip: Made Michigan's normal stuff work. Everything is packaged now. Did a good job of keeping Bryce calm.
Defense: UNM wasn't running sustainable offense. Payne and Etta took advantage of physical matchups, a little...

Things Discussed:
Craig Ross introduces the MGoBlog Rub Some Dirt On It player of the week.
What's the offense look like with Bryce? Not a spread, some RPO, some downfield passing, most of that off play-action.
Opponents are going to bring safeties down—Oklahoma runs a Venables defense that wants to attack, so you have to punish that.
Remember 2021 Georgia when JJ came in? He had some simple reads, but things opened up because he could physically get certain types of throws further downfield, increased the spacing between receivers.
RPOs? Chip Lindsey's job is to make what you do...

MGoBlog: The MGoPodcastWTKA Roundtable 8/14/2025: We’ve Horseshoe Theoried Brian
Things Discussed:
What kind of offense should Michigan be? They’re really built to be a 1990s team: strong TEs and FBs, run-blocking OL, big-armed quarterback who doesn’t have to make super-hard reads.
Chip Lindsey is a balance guy, not a screen guy. He comes in, looks at what you’re doing, and builds a functional passing game around it.
What does that look like this year? Their base two plays can be the stuff that worked for 1997 Michigan/Kirk Ferentz: Run off-tackle to one side and rollout flood passes with a side of Bryce running out the ot...

Condolences and love to the family of Greg Glenn. If you recall he came here as the glue guy/energy guy friend of Jett Howard who was supposed to make Jett better. When you talk about losing a 22-year-old whose primary scholarship-worthy attribute was he made other people better, that's a big loss. Craig mentions he met him at media day, thought Glenn was naively honest and open for an athlete.

Big Ten Meetings in Las Vegas: It’s a little too on the nose.

Playoff expansion: SEC and Big Ten are trying to strongarm their 2-loss teams in without having those teams play anybody.
Seth: Don't care anymore, because once you go past six teams it's an invitational and you've got a playoff champion, not a season champion. Did Team 12 have a better season than Team 1 if they get eliminated? If not you're not a season champion.

How this went down: Yax started with college as a fallback, Michigan visit shifted things.
NBA side of it stayed—if anything the measurements at the Combine improved his NBA stock.
But Michigan convinced him. Laid out the red carpet. Coaches went to the Combine to support him.
Did we out-recruit the NBA? Yes, because the NBA wasn't recruiting him, and we are very good at recruiting.

Michigan vs Georgia recruitments revisited: things have definitely changed. We had to move heaven and Earth to get Will Johnson and that was a legacy. Sam shares a story that Harbaugh promised he was gonna be here and that got Will to pump the breaks on a USC-Ohio State decision. Remembering DJ Turner's recruitment.
Yaxel? Is doing well at the combine. Think Michigan visit changed his mindset from "Michigan has to match" to "NBA has to match," but there's a very good chance that happens. Difference between early 2nd round and late 1st round isn't just m...

Leak to Thamel says NCAA told Michigan they'll suspend Sherrone for CMU and Nebraska.

Things Discussed:
Bryce Spring Review: Underwood actually made some JJ throws.
Players who stood out on film review: Deyvid Palepale, more impressed with Jalen Hoffman, Avery Gach (pronounced "Gatch") had lots of +2s and –2s, Jordan Young is always around the ball, made the 4th & 1 stuff.
OL thoughts by position:
RT & RG: Sprague and Efobi were moving people—impressive when they do it Benny, not so much Bobby Kanka. Efobi is the high ceiling/high floor option, could be Hattar or Link. Gach was getting shoved backwards by Chibi Anwunah, who might be good. Think the battle in fall...

Bryce was throwing flat; overthrowing McCulley is a sin. There's a guy across the aisle who's already mad. Seth thinks when the threw that small window past a dropping DE was good; Brian thought he didn't see the drop.
Jadyn Davis: Didn't look that polished but much improved.
Mikey Keene? Brian thinks he's not a P4 quarterback.
