Sherrone was arraigned in court on Friday while his former team preps for The Citrus Bowl. Joining us today with his thoughts on that and so much more is beat writer Austin Meek from The Athletic
Thing Discussed: Proportioning outrage: Sherrone, the maximum. Athletics department? Don't know but suspect people knew for a long time and didn't react until they got information they had to act on. The assistant he had an affair with? We don't know—not exonerated but also let's be conscious that sharing her name and photo and history of an unfamous person irreversibly makes her famous for This, for life. It also has a chill effect on other women caught in illicit relationships with powerful men, and we have a public interest in making sure that math favors coming forward, not participating in the cover-up. What is going on here that we don't have a control mechanism? Brian: I don't trust Warde in this situation because we saw the process for Mel Pearson. No faith this was handled appropriately. Who lied to you Sam? Sam: for certain, Sherrone lied. That wasn't the only basis for his report. Michigan investigated or "looked into it" and they didn't have credible evidence until yesterday when the woman came forward. (He doesn't say this but I took it to mean she lied to the investigators originally). Brian: Warde Manuel has done nothing in 11 years but bumble from one crises to another. Sam: A coverup did take place, between the involved parties. What could Michigan have done to reveal it? We don't know. What brought it to light was she came forward. Argument with Craig over the Wilmer Hale report over Mel Pearson: Craig doesn't like the report, argues for due process; Brian and Seth found the report credible and included you-have-to-fire-him level offenses, and Warde sat on it for months. Other Thing Discussed: Candidates Kalen DeBoer: If he'll listen. Minter: think we can work around the show-cause, might not be able to work around the fact he's in line for NFL jobs. Jeff Brohm: Proven coach, Louisville alum but would listen. Jason Eck: Former Wisconsin OL and line coach who's a cultural fit, only been a HC for 4 years and only New Mexico for one year. Think he's a Harbaugh after 1 year at Stanford. Wildcard: Jay Harbaugh. Bad ideas are bad ideas. Seth notes insanity is possible, e.g. John Harbaugh might come available. Also hiring a coach these days won't be on the AD; you bring in consultants for this sort of thing. It's a much better job than PSU right now, or the last 3 Michigan coaching searches when we were trying to replace Lloyd Carr without paying anybody, trying to find someone who will debase himself to work for Dave Brandon, or Harbaugh-or-bust with a program coming out of a Hoke low. Michigan job today is you get to pick your staff, maybe pick your AD, and inherit Bryce Underwood and a roster built for success with a top 2 or 3 (maybe even #1) NIL war chest. Will DeBoer listen? Math has changed: Alabama fans are holding him to an unreasonable standard based on what Saban did during a time when Alabama had more advantages over Michigan than they did now. Sam: Think DeBoer will listen. If not for that Playoff selection they were ready to run him out of town. People there are expecting him to have the success Saban had in a system that does not afford him the same advantages that Nick Saban had. Brohm will listen too. Sam: Loves Brent Key (also his alma mater), but how much of his success is Hayes King? Lea same thing; why not hire Diego Pavia. Floor: Jedd Fisch, is fine, not a high ceiling, or might be. He's done what we would want to see at Arizona and Washington.
Valenti and Rico continue with their reactions to Sherrone Moore's firing, hypothesizing some replacements and what could happen with Bryce Underwood.
The guys dedicated the final hour to the breaking news that Michigan has fired Sherrone Moore. They broke down potential replacements and what will happen with Bryce Underwood before Riger joined them in cross-talk to wrap up the show.

Detroit Sports Podcast -- The Michigan Podcast This episode -- Steve Deace gives no excuses after Michigan's soul-crushing 27-9 loss to a far superior Ohio State team: the Wolverines were outclassed in every phase, Bryce Underwood clearly regressed despite a full year of reps, and Sherrone Moore now faces a prove-it-or-bust 2025 with the playoff as the bare minimum or he's gone. Mark Rogers joins to break down the talent gap, the failed freshman QB experiment, and why better coaching would have made a dramatic difference this season!
In this week's episode, Al Borges and Sam Webb discussed Michigan's offensive performance in its 27-9 loss to Ohio State. They highlighted the team's reliance on the run game early, which led to initial success with runs of 36, 21, and 22 yards. However, the offense struggled to maintain balance, with only one first-down pass in the first half. Borges noted the need for more quarterback-dependent plays and better third-down execution. He graded the offensive line, tight ends, running backs, quarterback, and wide receivers, assigning grades ranging from D to C+. He emphasized the importance of developing the quarterback and offensive line for future success. He also discussed a potential spring practice plan for Bryce Underwood, emphasizing the importance of fundamental drills and game-relevant scenarios. The conversation concluded with light-hearted banter about Borges' potential return to the coaching staff.

Hail Yes! A Detroit Free Press Podcast About University of Michigan Sports
Tony and Andrew are back to discuss what went wrong for Michigan football in its 27-9 loss to the Buckeyes. Does this mean Michigan needs to reinvent itself under Sherrone Moore after losing its three biggest games this year? And what would that look like? Then the guys talk about freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood and why his growth seemed to stunt in the second half of the season. Is this another sign that Michigan needs to evolve offensively? Plus, Tony breaks down Michigan's 2026 recruiting class and some of the big names the Wolverines were able to land to help them sit just outside the top-10 nationally in another really solid class for Moore. And last but not least, the guys had to talk about Michigan basketball's routing of San Diego State, Auburn and Gonzaga in the Players Era Festival in Las Vegas, where the Wolverines put together about as impressive of a three-game stretch as possible. Just how sustainable is it? Read all about the Michigan Wolverines by heading to our website at freep.com/sports.

It's been quite the up n down football season for fans in the state of Michigan. After seeing the Buckeyes dominate the Wolverines in The Game, is it time to start wondering about Sherrone Moore as head coach and Bryce Underwood at QB? MSU got themselves a new head coach, will Pat Fitzgerald turn around the Spartans program? The Lions just can't seem to catch a break this year, and it continues with injuries and a loss to the Packers on Thanksgiving. Are playoff hopes all but gone?

Send JD a text message and be heard!@thereallanekiffin GO FUDGE YOURSELF! But are we shocked? He always is looking for the next great job. I feel bad for the @olemissfb players. 11-1 season, #cfp on the horizon. School hasn't won a natty since 1960. @companyadjace @downtimetv @brianbarnaby brought up an excellent idea #signingday coaches hiring & #transferportal all should be done after the season is OVER. It's not fair to the teams. @greenwavefb with #jonsumrall should be preparing for @american_conf chip game Friday night vs @meangreenfb with both coaches moving on to greener pastures. I know it's a business and players are moving every year too. Kiffin the way he moved on really burned me. Thanks @partylikearochkind for taking me to @texasfootball 27-17 over @aggiefootball Friday night. @mattfarragher joined us too. An Aggies fan said @archmanning is a trust fund QB. I feel he has a lot of things to work on to take his game to the next level. Texas playing @ohiostatefb opening game is great for the sport. Enough with the cream puffs. But I'm don't think we have 12 strong playoff teams. I hope I'm proved wrong. @rob.p1156 @sfniners__vault @tristate_fittedz @ateegz @donna.fender @nyquil_inthe_flesh @call_me_tca_prez @thomaswdonovan & @bmtlive07 talked #cfb @nygiants vs @patriots MNF @panthers upset @rams @broncos 10-2 behind @bonix10 beat @commanders SNF @philadelphiaeagles @brandonfurtado2 going to lose his mind @nyknicks @nyrangers #sportstrivia & barns telling me about his sports stadium trips.All sports.

The Buckeyes played like themselves (minus a few early plays on each side of the ball) and ended up mauling Michigan in The Game, 27-9. Julian Sayin threw a touchdown pass to all three of his starting wide receivers, two of whom recovered sufficiently from injury to return, and an insane 12-minute drive put the game away in the snowy second half. Matt Patricia's defense was untroubled by the Michigan run game and did not let explosive freshman Bryce Underwood have anything all day.We fondly recapped a great day for the Buckeyes, looked back at our score predictions and picks to click, and poured over the game stats. When Bo Jackson outgains the entire Michigan offense, the stats do not lie.After our walk through the greatest rivalry in sports, we looked around the rest of the Big Ten to see how others made out. It was heartbreak for Rutgers in the matchup with Penn State for bowl eligibility, as an unforced error (and a terrible play call) combined to give the Nittany Lions the bowl berth. Iowa blasted Nebraska in Farmageddon on Black Friday. Wisconsin was driving but a turnover helped Minnesota win Paul Bunyan's axe. Northwestern likewise imploded against Illinois as the Fighting Illini won Lincoln's hat. Other than that, the weekend went as expected.We touched on Michigan State firing Jonathan Smith and the reports about Pat Fitzgerald, which was not official at the time of our recording session. Seems like the Spartans are going back to basics. We also ran down the final Big Ten standings briefly and each of us correctly predicted the exact finishing position of four of the 18 teams. Not great!Finally, we ahead to Saturday's matchup with Indiana in the Big Ten title game. The Hoosiers might be the best team the Buckeyes will play all season and we're taking nothing for granted, including the possibility of a rematch in the College Football Playoff. Everyone knows about Fernando Mendoza, but Indiana's defense isn't getting enough credit. The Buckeyes will need to be better against the Hoosiers than they were at Ann Arbor to be successful, and they were fairly dominant up there.We discuss the matchup, make our picks to click, and do our best to predict the final score. I know we said The Game would be close, but we're doubling down this week. This will be a close game.We would love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email at silverbulletspod@gmail.com.

Matt Patricia's Ohio State defense is rewriting the school's record books this season. No one has scored more than 16 points against the Buckeyes in the first 11 games of the regular season, and the defense is a darling of most advanced analytical systems, holding opponents far below their averages on the ground and through the air. But does Patricia now have more tricks left in his toolbox with archrival Michigan on deck? And how does the Wolverines' offense, with standouts like Bryce Underwood, Jordan Marshall, and Andrew Marsh match up with what the Buckeyes will be trying to do with stars like Kayden McDonald, Arvell Reese, and Caleb Downs? In this episode of Ross Fulton Analysis, Ross breaks down some of Michigan's key concepts on the ground and through the air, and how Patricia and the Buckeyes may try to defend them.If you enjoy this episode, make sure to subscribe to the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, and you can find the video version of this podcast on YouTube, including video of the plays Ross is describing here: https://youtu.be/8lJUSPbWICI

IT'S HERE. The 121st edition of The Game. Michigan vs. Ohio State — with snow in the forecast, a 4-peat on the line, and BOTH teams starting the #1 overall recruit from the last two classes (Julian Sayin vs. Bryce Underwood). Mark Rogers and Steve Deace break it ALL down.
My guest today says Ohio State knows they are in the playoffs. On Saturday they and their coach are on a mission to end the streak to Michigan, get to the B10 Championship game, then go and win another NATTY. Joining me next is longtime Buckeye beat writer Tim May
TheBuckeyes beat Rutgers by 33 points with both starting wide receivers (and a key backup receiver) tied behind their backs on Saturday. Ohio State's 42-9 rout of the Scarlet Knights took a while to build up some steam, but the defense's continued bludgeoning of opponents eventually let the offense catch up. Julian Sayin made good use of Max Klare and Bo Jackson and his fellow running backs ran wild, while Caden Curry made the Rutgers backfield his own personal playground.As we normally do, we checked our score predictions from last week, broke down all the key players, moments, and stats from the game, and checked on our picks to click to see how they performed. Following our Rutgers rewind, we discussed the other results around the Big Ten. Once again, Wrigley Field delivered a solid game, as Northwestern reached bowl eligibility when Minnesota missed its last-second field goal. USC couldn't stop Oregon's offense in what we thought was going to be a good game. Iowa had to stage a furious fourth-quarter comeback to beat Sparty at home. Nebraska was a no-show in Happy Valley. UCLA is bad again, while Maryland remains bad. There are a lot of good rivalry games this week in the Big Ten, and we're particularly excited about Farmageddon on Friday as well as the Oregon-Washington battle in Seattle. Rutgers and Penn State will meet with bowl eligibility going only to the winner, and we don't expect that to be the Scarlet Knights. Finally, we looked forward to The Game Saturday at noon. Everyone with any sense of taste is tired of hearing about the current streak, but there's only one way to shut those yaps, and that is to win the game in the greatest rivalry in sports. Ohio State will have to shut down the run and make life difficult for Bryce Underwood while hopefully Julian Sayin will have his primary weapons because the Wolverines have a stout run defense but have had issues defending the pass. We discuss the matchup, make our picks to click, and try to predict the final score. We think it will be a tightly contested game. We would love to hear from you, so please reach out with your feedback and questions below in the comments section or send us an email at silverbulletspod@gmail.com. Any questions directed toward us will be answered on our next show. Be sure to subscribe, rate, review, share, and follow the show over on Twitter at @SilvrBulletsPod.As always, thanks for listening! 0:20 - Rutgers fought hard but was outmatched on Saturday. Ohio State rested some players and hopefully that will pay off in the big rivalry game coming up. 20:23 - The rest of the Big Ten offered up only a couple of close games, and the best of those was (surprisingly) Minnesota vs. Northwestern. 48:37 - The Buckeyes have a series of scores to settle. We'll find out on Saturday if they can settle them.
In this week's episode of Steady Droppin Dimes, Sam Webb, Tyrone Wheatley, and Daniel Horton examine Michigan's opposition to the Big 10's proposed private equity deal. The group looking to partner with the conference has decided to press pause on the process based on Michigan's dissent, but should the deal be dead and buried.

Offense vs Maryland Starts at :51 It doesn't feel good to just beat up on Maryland the week before The Game. Dave explains a soft and gooey snack for all of you to enjoy. Bryce was okay! He's worked on a nice seam route with an arc to Marlin Klein that he didn't have before the bye. And a dig route! There was one bad pass which was a tough throw to make anyways. Can he go and win The Game? Probably if the defense can do enough. This was never going to be a challenge for the offensive line but they exceeded expectations anyways. The Ohio State game might be a bridge too far, though. Kuzdzal is a step down from Justice Haynes and Jordan Marshall but he's got some juice. They succeeded on wedge! Andrew Marsh almost completed the Odell Beckham?? He's a star going forward. Marlin Klein hurdled a fool, Goodwin had a few catches. It was nice of Maryland to just run into themselves and let Michigan do what they wanted. 2. Defense vs Maryland Starts at 34:09 There was an opening drive touchdown with various guys being offsides again, but then there wasn't much until the backups came in. Pleeeease do not be rotating the back-seven against Ohio State all game. Derrick Moore has 11 sacks, imagine if he played more! Ernest Hausmann did not travel, Cole Sullivan was back (and possibly a little rusty). This performance didn't build confidence in holding Ohio State to 10 points again, a lot of Maryland receivers were running open. Brandyn Hillman had another good game, maybe that mini-suspension was the best thing for his career. He was even directing players into position. Some of Maryland's drops count as triple drops. There's just not much interior rush from this defensive line, maybe play Barham at linebacker against OSU so you can blitz him. Does Wink actually call plays without knowing or caring which personnel are out there? This year you don't have the two best defensive tackles in America and you can't bait Ryan Day into running into a six man box. 3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 56:08 Takes hotter than yours truly after he got through the hot takes intro and had to re-do them because the Sklars dropped out of the call. Brian broke Zvada. Chase Taylor gets +4 on the onside kick recovery, that did not feel good. There was no punting from Michigan so we don't have to complain about punting. Marsh had some nice punt returns?? End of first half time management was less than ideal, Goodwin lined up in the wrong spot and they should've called timeout. Stop jumping offside! The late hit by Brandt was a weak call, so was the one on Bryce Underwood. Every replay angle was field-level and somehow they're contradictory? 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:19:43 Oregon 42, USC 27 A close-ish looking boxscore but Oregon scored 28 first half points. Oregon has figured out some things after the Indiana game, they're in the 99th percentile in opportunity run rate. They're starting to look like the championship team they were hoping to be. Iowa 20, Michigan State 17 Iowa pulls out a classic game that they don't deserve to win. MSU QB Alessio Milivojevic punted three times. Michigan State's 8 game losing streak is tied for the 2nd longest, the program record is 10. Tickets for MSU vs Maryland at Ford Field after the game are free! Northwestern 38, Minnesota 35 An offensive explosion game! Northwestern wins at Wrigley for the first time in 8 attempts. Wisconsin 27, Illinois 10 Neither team gets to 300 yards of offense. This was the first time all season that Wisconsin scored in the first and second quarter. Penn State 37, Nebraska 10 The Grunk throws 12 times for 181 yards, that'll do it. Nebraska goes 1 of 6 on 4th down. Who is Penn State's number 1 coaching candidate? Washington 48, UCLA 14 The Huskies continue to play without some of their stars but still blew out UCLA Ohio State 42, Rutgers 9 Ugh MUSIC: "Feel It Again"—Winyah "Drugs"—Philharmonik Live from NPR Tiny Desk "DBZ"—Your Old Droog and Method Man “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra
