Checking in on Michigan's two coordinator openings

In this episode, we discuss the Michigan football team's openings at both offensive and defensive coordinator, along with other rumored coaching changes. We begin with a look at the offensive side of the ball. We discuss the magnitude of Josh Gattis' departure to Miami, how surprising it was, and what it means that Jim Harbaugh already appears to have an immediate plan in place to replace Gattis. We look at the rumored internal candidate due for an upgrade, what he brings to the table, and how his brief time at Michigan has shown how much Harbaugh likes him. We also look at the value of some of the other moves that may be made on the offensive side around him, as continuity is an apparent priority. In the second half of the show, we discuss the Wolverines' defensive coordinator position. We look at what Michigan should be looking for in a DC — experience, a rising star, recruiting, Xs and Os, mentorship, schematic continuity, etc. We also look at a couple key candidates who have emerged, and what they bring to the table.  Learn more about your ad choices.
