OL run blocking has not been good.

Posted on September 14, 2026 at 02:27:03 PM by gbmcq

Some of it is bad communication or missed assignments (I chalk this up to guards struggling and the rotation). Guys are not getting to the second level.

Play calling, I have no idea why Michigan is going outside so much, but there has to be more inside zone, duo, etc. These slow developing plays with motion to the outside are not working. Marshall needs to go inside.

Back to the board

- Zack Marshall story? I liked him last year and admittedly Funky got me excited about him in the offseason* - By Jason September 14, 2026 at 02:41:41 PM
  - I honestly have no idea. Was told all offseason he was TE1. Practice clips seemed to show it. I did know Hoffman would have a bigger role but I never saw this coming.* - By gbmcq September 14, 2026 at 02:53:23 PM
    - weird. thanks Trev* - By Jason September 14, 2026 at 03:09:23 PM

- Is Beck going to adjust to Marshall and Hiter's strength or keep running them east/west?* - By detroitbry September 14, 2026 at 02:25:11 PM
  - Yeah, like I said below, I don't get it. Whitt has called this out publicly so I'd imagine it's going to change, but the disparity is insane.* - By gbmcq September 14, 2026 at 02:28:10 PM
    - The Beck statement about when things get tough the answer is more Rhino is a bit scary * - By Spirit September 14, 2026 at 02:30:43 PM

        Marshall had 1000 yards (a few short) despite being hurt for OSU and the bowl, and being 2nd string early in the year* - By Rich September 14, 2026 at 02:48:45 PM

- Is Marshall healthy?* - By weebay September 14, 2026 at 02:20:32 PM
  - I've heard nothing to suggest he's not, but I thought he didn't look right at moments. That said, watching the tape, OL is doing him ZERO favors, play design.* - By gbmcq September 14, 2026 at 02:27:38 PM

- Was Tommy Carr a legitimate option last Saturday barring injury (I’d guess not FWIW). * - By plug September 14, 2026 at 02:18:35 PM
  - No. Benching Bryce at any point is the end of Bryce at Michigan. Whitt was never giving up on Bryce unless he thought there was no longer a chance of improvement/development, or Bryce was no longer taking coaching, etc.* - By gbmcq September 14, 2026 at 02:25:16 PM
- With Link returning, what can we expect on Sat? More rotation?* - By Bluebuck September 14, 2026 at 02:18:04 PM

- 2. If we light up an opponent, is Whitt a "let the backups shine" type or a "get out of here healthy" type? * - By ny1995 September 14, 2026 at 02:14:28 PM

  - Posted about this a little yesterday, but after working back from the foot injury to practice last week, sounds like he reaggravated something with the knee. Bad, bummer, sad, etc.* - By gbmcq September 14, 2026 at 02:21:48 PM
