And we are back, folks, with another edition, behind the uniform, this is where we take you inside the playing careers of the guys who wear the uniform for the maize in blue.

But we also tell you who they are away from the field of play.

And joining us here on the show is the man who they call Demo, the guy who stirs the drink for the Michigan defense.

And you last saw him wreaking havoc on the field of play against the Alabama Crimson Tide

and looking to do so again in an all-American fashion for the Wolverines of the 2025 campaign.

Demo, how you doing?

I'm doing good, man. I appreciate you for having me.

I guess I should introduce you as Derek Moore.

I shouldn't call you by your nickname. So, Derek, how you doing? I'm doing good. I know I like D. Moore. You know, people call me Derek in a facility, and I just look at him crazy sometimes, but, you know, I appreciate D. Yeah, man, glad that you could join us.

And, you know, people people when they talk about you this

season, it is with heavy expectations. They talk, they say all American. They talk about Big Ten

defensive player of the year. All kinds of big time. First round, projected first round draft pick. Do you look at that as

pressure? Is it motivation? How do you, when you hear those types of things, how do you look at it?

You know, when people, you know, talk about that type of things about me, I really not try to, like,

get too much into it or really think too much about it. I really just let the season, you know, just come and, you know, just go.

But right now, you know, I just think about today, you know, just what can I do to get better

and how can I, you know, possibly achieve them goals, you know, later that later down in the future.

Yeah, man.

So you've been a part of great defensive lines, great defensive line play.

And when you look back over your decision to commit to Michigan, did you imagine it

was going to be like this?

Because when you did it, Michigan didn't necessarily have this repud.
