Welcome to the official podcast of Michigan football in the trenches with John Jansen, presented by Meyer, presenting sponsor of the 2024 Michigan football season and proud supporter of hundreds of local sports teams across the Midwest.

The former two-time captain and national champion covers the Wolverines better than anyone.

You look at Mason Graham and Kenneth Grant.

Both those guys were under-recruited.

I mean, those are the type of guys you want.

Obviously, you recruit the elite-level guys that are on top of your board,

but you always have those guys that you want to, you know, that are the diamond of the rust that you want to go get.

This is in the trenches, presented by Meyer.

Once again, here's John Jansen.

Well, it is National Signing Day, and we get a chance to sit down with head coach Jerome Moore

to talk about this class.

And coach, thanks for joining me.

I know it's been a busy time,

but how is it been for you? This is your first class. I know you've recruited guys that are here.

You've been a part of classes, but now this is your class. How's it been different and what's it

been like? It's been awesome. I've loved getting to all these kids and all these families, so it's

really fun and enjoyable time. First, you know, I'd like to thank the Champion Circle for all the

support that they've done for us in the collective in this new age of football. You know,

NIL is different and it is part of the game, but it's not all of it, but it is part of it.

And, you know, we have to recognize that and adjust to it.

But really excited about the class that we brought in.

We can get into the dynamics of that later in later podcasts and down the road.
