With all the talk about Ohio State’s offseason roster moves and Oregon’s entry into the Big Ten, it’s easy to forget that the Big Ten also is home to the defending national champs. Michigan visited Big Ten Media Days on Thursday and offered a reminder that while the Wolverines lost a lot of great players to the NFL, the cupboard isn’t bare. One potential breakout star is Donovan Edwards, who struggled through a disappointing 2023 season before exploding for 104 yards and two touchdowns on just six carries in the national title game win against Washington. Edwards talked Thursday about how he got through last season and how much he’s grown ahead of this season. Next, Andy breaks down Oregon coach Dan Lanning’s discussion of recruiting. Oregon has a big NIL war chest, but not an unlimited one. But does it bother Lanning that his recruiting success is credited to NIL deals when recruiting wins at Georgia or Ohio State are credited differently? After that, Oregon linebacker Jeffrey Bassa discusses the huge expectations for the Ducks. Then we look at the other side of the Oregon-Washington rivalry as new Huskies coach Jedd Fisch joins Andy to talk about rebuilding a team that won’t look anything like the one that played for a national title. Andy is then joined by another first-year coach — Indiana’s Curt Cignetti. Cignetti won big at James Madison, and he’s loaded the Hoosiers’ roster with veteran transfers who played well at the Group of 5 level. Will that method produce a quick start at a place not known for winning football? Want to watch the show instead? Join us M-F, LIVE, at 8 am et on YouTube! Host: Andy Staples Producer: River Bailey
