The Player & The Fan is BACK — and this one pulls no punches.

In this long-awaited episode, Chris and Glenn dive headfirst into the chaos surrounding Michigan football, unpacking everything from the Texas game fallout to the behind-the-scenes turmoil that’s reshaping the program in real time. They don’t rehash headlines—they tell you what’s actually been brewing for months.

From leadership failures and adult decisions that put players in impossible positions, to why the Texas loss felt like a symptom—not the disease—this episode is an unfiltered look at how distractions, roster instability, and coaching uncertainty collided at the worst possible moment

The conversation then turns to the future:

• Why Michigan must attack the transfer portal—especially at quarterback

• The uncomfortable truth about QB development, competition, and meritocracy

• Why being a five-star (or highly paid) means nothing if you’re not producing

• How real programs operate when winning—not feelings—is the priority

Chris brings the player’s perspective fans don’t want to hear but need to understand, while Glenn lays out why this moment, painful as it is, may be exactly what Michigan needed to finally clean house and reset the culture the right way.

They also break down why the new staff represents a rare Plan B win, how internal power dynamics are shifting, and why competition—not comfort—is the only path back to elite football.

This episode isn’t about panic.

It’s about accountability.

It’s about reality.

And it’s about what it actually takes to win in modern college football.

If you want honesty over hopium—this one’s for you. 🎙️💥
