WATCH: Michigan football's year in review, optimism for future
The Michigan Wolverines started the 2024 calendar year with a College Football Playoff National Championship and ended it with landing a major prize on the recruiting trail and their fourth-straight win over Ohio State. Now, it ends 2024 on Dec. 31 the way it started – in a bowl battle with Alabama.
TheWolverine.com’s Anthony Broome and Clayton Sayfie discuss the 2024 year for Michigan football, from a national title to a coaching change and renewed optimism under Sherrone Moore.
“So much has happened, and it does feel like yesterday that Michigan was playing in those playoff games not long ago,” Sayfie said on the show. “Now, we’ve already had four playoff games under our belt this year. You’ve had a coaching change in football. You’ve had a coaching change in basketball. They’re looking very, very good and completely different already with nine wins after having just eight wins last season. I mean, huge changes. Sherrone Moore with one game left in his first season and going into year two.
“Michigan has done a pretty good job on the NIL front where people feel pretty good about what next year could be. So it’s just like the changes that have happened so quickly over this last year are kind of crazy. But I mean, the fact that you’re starting out the year the way you did and then everything that came after it was pretty remarkable what occurred at the beginning.
“Now at the end a lot of question marks with the football program, but at the same time, you feel like Moore is starting to put a stamp on his era and what it’s going to be moving forward.”
