What’s on Michigan football’s Christmas wishlist?

It’s been a great three years for Michigan football. The Wolverines have lost just three games over the last three seasons, beaten Ohio State three times, and made the College Football Playoff three times. What a time to peak.

There isn’t much missing from the Michigan football experience except the obvious national title, but that won’t stop us from compiling a wish list anyways! Call us greedy, but one you get a taste of winning you never want to try something else.

New players transferring in, old players staying, a certain someone’s contract being signed… there is plenty of potential good news on the table for Michigan fans as the holiday season wraps up.

This is the award at the forefront of every Wolverine fan’s mind. Michigan has punched its ticket to the dance for the third straight year but is still clamoring for a bowl win… much less a National Title.

Alas, this year feels different. Or so we tell ourselves again. McCarthy is playing well, the defense is among the top in the country and Michigan is just two wins away from college football’s largest honor.

Can Michigan slay the final dragon? Only time will tell.

McCarthy is the best thing to happen to Michigan football since… probably Jim Harbaugh. Either way, he is the most important player on the roster and the quarterback plan after him is a little murky.

No one wants to throw Jadyn Davis into the fire, the current backups aren’t quite at the level one would hope, and the portal options are mostly dried up. The only real shot Michigan has to compete next year is if McCarthy decides to run it back next season. One could argue his continuity is more important than Harbaugh’s for 2024 alone.
