What We Heard Week 9: DI HC calls Michigan OC Jason Beck ‘exceptional’
Ahead of today’s matchup against Rutgers, a DI head coach called OC Jason Beck ‘exceptional’. That and more as Michigan Football looks to stay above .500:
In Week 9, Utah State head coach Bronco Mendenhall defended Michigan offensive coordinator Jason Beck, calling his coaching abilities "exceptional." Mendenhall, a former player and assistant under Beck, dismissed the notion that Beck has lost his coaching skills, stating that labeling such a claim "asinine" was frustrating. Meanwhile, former Michigan quarterback Devin Gardner criticized head coach Kyle Whittingham's postgame remarks following a loss to Indiana, expressing his disapproval of Whittingham's comments.
Additionally, Michigan defensive coordinator Jay Hill offered words of encouragement to Beck amid the team's offensive struggles, emphasizing Beck's competence despite the challenges. Finally, Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano praised Michigan's defense, calling it "elite, elite" and acknowledging their statistical superiority in yards per play and points scored.
