In this episode, we react to the Michigan football team dismissing defensive coordinator Don Brown, along with takin a look at what's next for the Wolverines' defense.
We begin by discussing our initial reaction to Brown's dismissal — one that is monumental in nature but was not surprising after the Wolverines' 2020 season. We review what went wrong for Brown and Michigan this season and in the past, along with how our impression of Brown changed through the years.
We then turn our attention to what's next for Michigan, taking a look at some early candidates who stand out to us, what traits the Wolverines should prioritize in their coordinator search and more. We also take a look at how recruiting plays a role in Michigan's decision, both with the 2021 class and beyond.
Finally, we close by looking at what kind of job a new defensive coordinator would be walking into. We assert that the Wolverines were likely to improve defensively in 2021 regardless of who their defensive coordinator was, but why it's paramount for Michigan to hire someone who has worked with talented players and won at big schools in the past.
