Special guest: Late Kick Live's Josh Pate talking Michigan football
05/02/24 • 26 min
It's been a long time coming but we have a special guest in our friend Josh Pate, the host of Late Kick Live on 247Sports and frequent contributor on CBS Sports HQ.
Pate discusses the Michigan football season that was, why the Wolverines were the last great national champion. Why the Connor Stalions saga means nothing when it comes to the validity of said national championship, evaluating teams as a national analyst, and then the outlook of the Michigan Wolverines team in 2024 as it pertains to having a lot of high-end talent on the roster.
Then, Amorion Walker has officially returned to Ann Arbor but as a wide receiver -- the position where he was initially recruited. What it means for that position group and the outlook given his return.

Transfers out, transfers in
The past week has been a weird one for Michigan football, losing many backup linebackers to the transfer portal, and a few others. But with the transfer portal now closed for undergrads (for the time being) we discuss how the Wolverines have ended up to this point. Yes, Michigan has lost 17 transfers, but maybe only two or three were expected to be contributors in 2024.
With that in mind, we then look to the 2023 class and why it's starting to resemble that of 2018 and its insane hit rate on high-quality players. How that class could determine this year's success.
Finally, Michigan did get an incoming transfer, with former Youngstown State wide receiver C.J. Charleston opting to come from Ohio to Ann Arbor.
