Summary

In this episode, we tackle three offseason questions about the Michigan football team as it heads into the final portion of the offseason.

First, we zoom out on Michigan's 2020 season, and determine whether it can be written off as an aberration, or a true sign of where the program is at. Along the way, we discuss the Wolverines' injuries, opt-outs, the oddities surround the COVID-19 season and why Michigan might have benefitted from a spring practice slate more than other teams. We also look at parts of the season that weren't aberrations, and how Michigan can ascend back to a top-15 level.

Then, we take an early look at Michigan's schedule, looking at the Wolverines' toughest opponents that aren't Ohio State. We then follow that up by looking at Michigan's wide receiver room, and what the addition of Daylen Baldwin adds to the mix.
