Danny Kanell takes shot at Michigan, sign-stealing saga as Wolverines trail vs. Texas
Michigan is struggling with Texas in its first real test under Sherrone Moore. The Wolverines trailed 24-3 at the half and were outgained 279 to 88 in the opening two quarters.
Things didn’t get much better for the Wolverines in the second half as they were down 31-6 heading to the fourth.
College football analyst Danny Kanell took a shot at Michigan on Twitter during the second half of Saturday’s game, hinting that last year’s success was due to sign-stealing.
“Imagine that… it’s a little tougher to dominate opponents when you don’t know what’s coming,” Danny Kanell posted on Twitter.

Michigan went a perfect 15-0 in 2023, winning the national title under head coach Jim Harbaugh. However, the national championship did not come without controversy.
The Wolverines were found guilty of sign-stealing during the middle of last season, leading to Harbaugh being suspended for multiple games and Connor Stalions leaving the Michigan staff. Some believe that Michigan’s national championship needs an asterisk. Clearly Danny Kanell agrees with that based off of his Tweet on Saturday.

Tom Brady on Michigan first half vs. Texas: ‘Tough to watch’
Danny Kanell wasn’t the only one who noticed Michigan struggling with Texas on Saturday.
NFL legend and Michigan alum Tom Brady took in the first half of the Wolverines’ game against Texas and well, it wasn’t pretty. Texas led 24-3 going into the locker room.
The former Wolverines’ quarterback is set to make his NFL on FOX regular season debut Sunday, but joined the FOX broadcast at halftime Saturday. Safe to say, Brady wished he could’ve gloated about Michigan leading Texas rather than the other way around.
FOX’s Joel Klatt asked Brady his initial thoughts from the first 30 minutes, saying “your Wolverines need some help right now.”
“Tell me about it Joel, it’s been tough to watch this first half,” Brady said. “I was hoping I’d come on here and be talking about the opposite score there. But Texas is off to a great start. (The) quarterback’s playing well, so Michigan’s got a lot to cover here in the in the second half.”
