## Resource

ESPN analyst Dan Wetzel is betting on Michigan as the surprise Big Ten contender next season, arguing the Wolverines still pack elite talent and could soar under new coach Kyle Whittingham—whose track record of maximizing limited resources could turn the tide. With key hires like Jason Beck and Jay Hill at the helm and a brutal schedule ahead, Michigan’s success hinges on unexpected wins and a swift turnaround. Most analysts are ignoring the coaching change, but Whittingham’s Big Ten media day debut and fall camp could be the first signs of a breakout year.
