Summary

We take a look at Michigan's revised and (tentatively) finalized 2021 football schedule, then field a number of questions from listeners about the Wolverines' football team.

We open with a look at Michigan's schedule. We parse through the changes, look at the Wolverines' schedule as a whole and discuss our thoughts on Michigan's slate.

Next, we quickly refresh out conversation on Michigan's needed coaching changes, then tackle two questions heavily related to Michigan's new look defense. We discuss how a shift to a 3-4 defense would impact Michigan's defensive line and linebacker rooms and which players may benefit the most. We then look at transfer portal targets the Wolverines may look into, along with the needs Michigan may be prudent to address.

Then, we open things up to two other questions. We look at JJ McCarthy's potential to contend for the starting job in the spring and fall, while Steve handles a question about defensive back recruiting in the 2022 class.
