2013 Look Ahead: The Defense
DT Ondre Pipkins could be set for a big year in 2013.
Previously, we looked at the offense. We also looked at the schedule. Now it's the defense's turn.
Michigan loses 5 official starters on defense...Will Campbell, Craig Roh, Jordan Kovacs, JT Floyd and Kenny Demens. On paper, this seems like a lot. But if you look at what's coming up, your fears will be eased...
Lewan, Hagerup earn Big Ten individual awards
The All-Big Ten teams were announced on Monday night and several Wolverines were among them. Taylor Lewan received the Rimington-Pace Offensive Lineman of the Year award and Will Hagerup got the Eddleman-Fields Punter of the Year award. No other school in the conference had more than two individual players win awards, though Ohio State, Penn State, and Wisconsin also had two each...
The Michigan Medley salutes the seniors of Team 133
They arrived in Ann Arbor four or five years ago, to a program in a state of flux that no incoming class had seen in nearly 40 years. Unlike last year’s graduating class, none came to Michigan under the old regime of Lloyd Carr prior to his retirement. The 18 players that will play their last game in Michigan Stadium on Saturday came to Michigan full of promise with a new coach...
Michigan vs. Nebraska: The Travesty
With their Big Ten Championship hopes in the balance, Denard Robinson went down with a pinched nerve in his elbow (the Ulnar Nerve) and I proceeded to watch the remaining 2 1/2 quarters, watching the bid to the Big Ten Championship slip away.
The issue on Saturday was not the defense. They played very well and were led by Craig Roh, who had one of the best games all year. The...
U-M D not creating enough turnovers (w/video)
Through four games in the 2011 season the Michigan defense was able to create an identity. In 2012, the defense has been somewhat less encouraging in non-conference play, but is showing signs of steady improvement as well. Coach Hoke and Craig Roh talked about it yesterday.
Hoke 'thinks' bye week was good for Wolverines
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Now that Michigan's bye week is over, coach Brady Hoke has the tricky assignment of evaluating a weekend where his team didn't play any football.
"It is hard to evaluate bye weeks, but I think this was a good one," he said. "If nothing else, our freshmen, who have been here since June 25, got 36 hours to go home, see their families and...

Week 1 College Football: 3 Up, 3 Down
Follow @ClevelandDTR
By: Eric Grinnell
With Week 1 of the 2012 College Football Season officially in the books, I thought it would be fun to get a weekly column going. I’ve talked about it before, but one of the reasons that I love the college football season so much is that I love playing “armchair GM” and scouting for NFL prospects. What I’m planning on doing is writing...
Mattison looking for consistency (w/video)
Michigan defensive coordinator Greg Mattison met with the media this morning assessing the defense’s play to this point in camp. Mattison talks about Craig Roh and Will Campbell, Jake Ryan’s progression, and a safety who’s starting to stand out. **with video**

Freshmen reported on Saturday and veterans on Sunday as the team takes the field today for the first of 29 practices. With 15 returning starters most starting spots are locked up, but some questions undoubtedly remain to be answered over the...

Henry Poggi to decide between Michigan and Alabama
Henry Poggi
5-star defensive tackle Henry Poggi (Baltimore, Maryland) will announce his college commitment on Monday (6/4). According to multiple reports, he has narrowed his decision down to two schools, Michigan and Alabama. Shortly after Maurice Hurst Jr committed to Michigan on Saturday, twitter was ablaze with rumors of another pending commitment for the Wolverines. The prevailing...
Phil Steele's Preseason All-Big Ten Team
If you're as passionate about college football as I am, you love the preseason rags that make their way onto newsstands around early June every year. It's an early sign that college football is just around the corner. One of the best mags out there, if not the best, is Phil Steele's College Football Preview. There is more info packed onto each page than one could...
Roh Looking to Add Summer Weight
Craig Roh debuted at his new position at Michigan’s spring football game Saturday. Hear what he has to say on his adjustment to the strong side, the development of his fellow linemen, and his meal plan over the next few months (with video).
So the Spring Game Happened
To view all of my photos from Saturday, click here.
It was short, it was kinda sweet. All in all it was exactly what a typical Michigan spring game is. There were quite a few things to take notice of, so let's jump into some bullets.
• The interior of the DL was called out by Brady Hoke at the presser following the scrimmage...says we're still too soft there. And...

Spring Practice Presser Transcript 3-27-12: Craig Roh and Will Campbell
Craig Roh
vs. SDSU
Have you ever ridden on the tandem bike with Taylor Lewan?
“Yes. It was a magical experience.”
Does he prefer to be in front or in back?
“He usually takes the front. It’s his bike, so he takes the front. Taylor’s back is the most amazing thing to look at. I’ve only done it once. I mean, it was magical but I don’t know how many more times I want to...
Sometimes You Eat The Turnover Bar
Turnover margin is a notoriously jittery stat that does not often repeat year to year. Turnovers are infrequent and hugely impactful, so they tend to wander all over the place without much rhyme or reason, slaying or rescuing seasons. Yes, there are obvious repeatable factors that correlate with good or bad turnover margin on a macro level. Get to the quarterback and he will explode...

How different is it playing at center full time now?
“It’s not that much different. I played center coming in as a freshman when [Rich] Rod was here. It’s not really a transition, just getting back into the groove of things. I don’t really see it as a transition.”

Coaching Clinic Notes: Brady Hoke
NOTE: it proved impossible to communicate what OL coaches were like without swearing more than I usually would in a post not about backboards in the immediate aftermath of last year's Wisconsin game. Keep children and the mad away from this post.
Faced with a difficult choice between seeing the head coach give his stump speech and talk about defensive line coaching and Al Borges...
