Michigan football starting quarterback vs Oregon? 'To be determined'

"You can't do major changes at this juncture, and so it will be collaborative," Michigan football coach Kyle Whittingham said Monday, Nov. 9.

Michigan football starting quarterback vs Oregon? 'To be determined'

Michigan's football team made the decision to fire offensive coordinator Jason Beck. Coach Kyle Whittingham stated that major changes at this stage of the season were not feasible, and a collaborative approach would be taken instead. The interim offensive coordinator for the remainder of the season is Jim Harding, who has never been in charge of play-calling.

Whittingham believes Harding, who has worked with him for a long time, is the right fit to get through the next three weeks. Michigan's offense has been struggling, and the defense and special teams will also face scrutiny. The team is attempting to damage control for its future, contacting recruits to discuss the new direction.

The quarterback situation is uncertain, with Tommy Carr's performance against Michigan State leading to questions about whether he or sophomore Bryce Underwood will start against Oregon. Whittingham stated that the final decision will be made after a review of the situation.
