Summary

Switching to a shorter, twice-weekly podcast format, our show is solely focused on our spring preview of the Michigan football team’s defense.Starting up front and working backwards, we look at each position on the Wolverines’ defense and the key questions surrounding each group. 

On the defensive line, we look at Michigan’s defensive end depth and discuss who could or should emerge as top-level talent. Inside, we wonder if the Wolverines will be able to rotate enough game-ready tackles, what happens if injuries strike and even discuss potential schematic changes to be made.

Moving on to linebackers, we break down how Michigan can go about the unenviable task of replacing Devin Bush Jr., what Khaleke Hudson can do differently this season and some new contributors. In the secondary, we look at the progress and potential of Ambry Thomas, who else has stepped up at cornerback, safety candidates and where Daxton Hill might fit in. We close looking at Michigan’s battles at kicker and in the return game.
