It would be a MAJOR power move by the B1G and a major blow to the Big 12 if Iowa State’s TJ Otzelberger is the choice to replace Dusty May in Michigan Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

-Matt Campbell finally left Iowa State this offseason, leaving for Penn State after a successful tenure in Ames. He was replaced by Washington State’s Jimmy Rogers

-With Dusty May out at Michigan…could TJ Otzelberger be the guy in Ann Arbor? What a rough offseason that would be not only for Iowa State but for the Big 12 in general…

Nebraska’s defensive line is quite possibly the most important group to ‘overachieve’ in 2026…can they do so? Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

-The World-Herald’s Sam McKewon wrote about the line yesterday after a discussion with Matt Rhule, and it’s clear that Rhule wants guys like Riley Van Poppel to finally have that breakout year like we saw in Ty Robinson’s last season

-McKewon mentions that in the B1G era, Nebraska’s best d-linemen have been the Davis Twins, Ty Robinson, Randy Gregory, Ben Stille, and Maliek Collins. He also mentions that if the current linemen reach their ceilings….Van Poppel could be as good as Robinson; Kade Pietrzak as good as Ben Stille; Williams Nwaneri as good as Randy Gregory; and Jasear Whittington similar to Maliek Collins. Not saying he’s expecting it, but that’s their ceiling comparisons….are these feasible to reach and are the comparisons OK?

Show notes

-The sports world was stunned Monday morning when news broke that Dusty May would be leaving Michigan to become the head coach for the Mavericks---replacing Jason Kidd and getting the opportunity to coach Cooper Flagg for a rebuilding team

-May’s tenure in Ann Arbor was short but amazing---going 64-13 (33-7 in B1G play) and winning the national title in year 2 (Sweet 16 in year 1)…now, Michigan players have 15 days to either stay in Ann Arbor or head elsewhere…what will happen and who will take over as coach?
