Locked On Wolverines - Daily Podcast On Michigan Wolverines Football & Basketball

When Michigan football takes the field in 2022, there's no reason why this offense shouldn't be the best in program history. None, zilch, nada (OK, we came up with one reason, but even still, we don't excuse it). Why two players are the embodiment of all the potential, why we think that side of the ball is on par with Ohio State, and -- speaking of Ohio State -- why Buckeye fans continue to be Charmin soft.

We got a chance to talk to Michigan football defensive coordinator Jesse Minter and co-coordinator/secondary coach Steve Clinkscale on Thursday, and there was a lot to take away. Why we're getting increasingly hyped about the defense and about what range we're expecting them to be. Also, a few inside notes about the Wolverines in fall camp, including the defense and the quarterback competition. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Since spring ball, we've heard all of the right things when it comes to Michigan football's revamped defense. From the pass rush, to the secondary, to Jim Harbaugh saying he has a sneaking suspicion that the defense will be better than last year, everything sounds too good to be true. But then, you add Mazi Smith's leadership and four defensive players showing up on The Athletic's annual 'freaks' list, and it has us thinking: could it actually be better? We discuss that, as well as why we...

We really now are into the thick of things, with there having been a handful of practices for Michigan football in preparation for the 2022 season. On Sunday, we met with Sherrone Moore and Matt Weiss, the co-offensive coordinators, while Jim Harbaugh appeared on the 'In the Trenches' podcast with Jon Jansen. Our biggest takeaways, reactions, and why what seems like hyperbole feels more true this year. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! LinkedIn LinkedIn jobs helps you find the...

Michigan football has now had three practices as it gears up for the 2022 season. But, we don't know much about how the team looks just yet. Why the roster has given us confidence, as well as why the defensive line is looking more and more like a strength. Also, noting why the notion that the defense is inexperienced is erroneous.

Fall camp officially kicked off on Wednesday, which means we're really in season mode, especially with kickoff being one month away exactly!

Despite losing a starter in Vincent Gray, Michigan football looks very, very good at cornerback, with four candidates to start. DJ Turner is a likely starter, but who will play opposite him? Gemon Green has the experience, Mike Sainristil shined in spring ball, and Will Johnson has undeniable talent. Also, will Ja'Den McBurrows, Jalen Perry, or German Green step up this year? And which other freshmen could make an impact in year one? Then, we wrap up the defense with some overall thoughts....

Michigan football lost Dax Hill and Brad Hawkins to the NFL, but with RJ Moten, Rod Moore, and Makari Paige, there's a feeling that the Wolverines won't miss a beat. We discuss what each of the three bring to the table, as well as adding in names like Quinten Johnson and Caden Kolesar. Also, which freshmen will be involved at safety and who could be first-year contributors? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

We're doing three podcasts on Sunday, continuing our position group preview! We start out with a unit that went from being the one we were most skeptical about last year to one we're pretty confident in this year. Junior Colson has the potential to be an elite linebacker in the Big Ten and beyond, and we do some comparisons to Devin Bush from his freshman to sophomore year. Why Nikhai Hill-Green exudes leadership and capability and dependability, and who will be the other starter. We delve...

With Big Ten media days coming up next week, we're back to rounding out our summer preview series, finally moving to the defensive side of the ball. We're starting out with the defensive line, taking a look at the ends first, then working in the interior. Who will start, who will finish, and the up-and-comers to look out for.

It's been forever, but the Michigan Mailbag is finally BACK and hopefully here to stay! We take plenty of hypotheticals on the upcoming season, the presumption of success for Michigan football, how NIL is going and has gone, how Michigan's new president in Dr. Santa Ono fits, and much, much more!

We've returned from a needed break (again) and with Big Ten media days right around the corner, we're starting to think 2022 season. First, we talk a little bit about Michigan football recruiting, why we're not jumping off of any bridges just yet, while elucidating on some concerns. Then, we get into the various reasons why 2022 should play out well for the Wolverines, and why a lot of factors are working in the maize and blue's favor. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

In case you missed it, Miami commit Jaden Rashada is reportedly getting $9.5 million due to an NIL agreement -- with those numbers, if correct, coming before he's gone through a single class, weight session, or anything college related. How that is counter to Jim Harbaugh and Michigan football's approach, why it's bad for Miami, bad for college football, and how NIL should be handled instead. Then, talking the addition of Youssef Khayat to the basketball team, Mason Curtis being the first...
