Summary
On the heels of the Big Ten's decision to shift to a conference-only schedule for 2020 fall sports, Jon provides his initial thoughts and discusses how the changes may affect the Wolverines (5:00). Then, Jon and Brian break down some key topics from Head Coach Jim Harbaugh's video conference on Wednesday, including full context on his statement about dealing with COVID-19 (16:30), his players' desire to be part of the solution (21:15) and some observations on the position battles at quarterback and offensive line (28:00). We conclude with a great conversation with senior linebacker Josh Ross, who talks about his experiences during the pandemic (42:15), the lessons from his injury-plagued 2019 season (47:00), and his excitement level for the upcoming schedule (50:40).
