Description

In a two-topic episode, we react to offensive tackle Jalen Mayfield's decision to declare for the 2021 NFL Draft and where Michigan's offensive line goes next, then tackle an apparent uprising from parents and players in the Big Ten and what it could lead to.
Beginning with the Mayfield discussion, we both opine on whether it was a surprising decision. We touch on Mayfield's draft stock, while it feels like he just got to Michigan and what enabled him to make this decision. We also discuss where this leaves the Wolverines, who might be stepping in as right tackle and our confidence level that Michigan can remain a strong unit nationally.
Then, we take a look a week removed at the Big Ten's decision to postpone fall sports, and discuss the groundswell of opposition for the decision from players and coaches. We look at why Michigan is practicing (and why a few players aren't), the merits of canceling or not canceling the fall season and whether we think the protests and petitions will make a difference.
