It’s been an eventful year for the Michigan Wolverines. Embroiled in multiple NCAA investigations, the Wolverines moved past the potential distractions and put together a dream season on the field and won the program’s first national title since splitting one with Nebraska in 1997. The challenges continued after that point, however, as coach Jim Harbaugh accepted the head coaching job with the Los Angeles Chargers and the Wolverines will replace a majority of their on-field production from the 2023 season as well.
Michigan’s 2024 recruiting class is largely complete as 2024 National Signing Day unfolds on Wednesday. There’s no shortage of Michigan football recruiting news in Ann Arbor, however, as new head coach Sherrone Moore builds his staff, including finding a replacement for defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, looks ahead to the 2025 and 2026 recruiting classes and prepares for his first spring practice in charge.
