With just 10 days until the start of the season, the "Hail Yes" crew breaks down the 10 most important players for Michigan football this season. It's no secret Bryce Underwood is on the list, but just how high is he? And is Michigan finding a resurgence on offense more important, or maintaining an elite level on defense?

Then in the second half of the show, the guys each share one on-the-field birthday wish Bryce Underwood might ask for to celebrate turning 18. Plus, Tony shares his thoughts on Michigan continuing its heater on the recruiting trail after landing Savion Hiter, the No. 1 running back recruit in the country. And last but not least, the guys discuss the latest surrounding the Connor Stalions-sign-stealing saga, and reports that Central Michigan helped arrange him being on the CMU sidelines for the 2023 game against MSU.

Flash the bat signal, it's time for an emergency podcast! We knew it was coming eventually, but the NCAA finally handed down its punishment to Michigan on Friday.

Tony and Andrew get together for a quick breakdown of everything you need to know about the announcement, including whether Michigan got off easy.

As the Michigan football season creeps closer and closer with kickoff just 17 days away, Tony and Andrew are back for another episode of "Hail Yes" during the dog days of camp. Michigan coach Sherrone Moore spoke with the media for one of the final times of fall camp on Tuesday and gave an inside look at when he plans to name Bryce Underwood, Mikey Keene or Jake Garcia as the starting quarterback, and it'll be before opening kickoff. For now, it looks like Underwood continues to lead the way. Then, the guys talk about Michigan's mantra for the season, "today, not tomorrow," what it means and why it has a hidden benefit that you may not think of.

Then after a quick break, Tony and Andrew talk about why these next few days are so important for Michigan football's roster battles and which units fans should really lock in on. Plus, what to make of the alleged gambling situation surrounding Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer, who the Wolverines will face in Week 2. And last but not least, Tony got to taste all the food that will be offered at the Big House this year and gives fans an idea of which ones they've got to check out.

Spring football is in the books, and all that anyone can talk about is Michigan football quarterback Bryce Underwood, who made his debut at the Big House last weekend in the spring game. It wasn't smooth sailing for the highly-touted freshman, but the Belleville product showed flashes of why he is so exciting. Tony and Andrew open the show by answering three questions about the spring game, of course focusing on Underwood's performance, and then discuss why everyone is missing the mark about Underwood on both sides.

After a quick break, Tony and Andrew discuss if Michigan has enough to get back to the College Football Playoff after last year's disappointing 7-5 season.

It wasn't the dream ending anyone in Ann Arbor hoped for, but it sure was a successful season. Michigan basketball was knocked out of the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament in Year 1 under Dusty May after looking like it might have just enough to outlast Auburn. That all came crashing down in the second half, as the Wolverines watched the Tigers hit one shot after another. Tony and Andrew talk about their biggest takeaways from May's first year in Ann Arbor and what lessons can be taken from the 2024-25 season going forward.

Then, the guys talk about Michigan's busy start in the transfer portal, already landing Elliot Cadeau (North Carolina), Morez Johnson Jr. (Illinois) and Yaxel Lendeborg (UAB) in just the first few days after the season. Is this another sign that May is perfectly set up to succeed in this day and age?

And last but not least, we can't forget about spring football. Sherrone Moore's crew is on the field and getting in work, with of course the biggest question still being who will be the starting quarterback. Tony makes a prediction for the starter against New Mexico in Week 1, and shares a takeaway from the offensive and defensive side of the ball.
