Sixty days and counting, this is the amount of time left before the wolverines of Michigan take to the field and prove that they are for real this season. While things have not went the best in the world for the team is seasons past, there is hope that a new signing class will be what the team needs in order to get the wheels back on track and get the team back to a point that they can contend for the BCS title. This will be a long struggle but one that will be worth it in the end. the team in the talks about a BCS bowl game. This will be an important consideration that will need to be addressed in the coming season.
The signing class is one that has shown that they are able to make a stand when it is needed. The team had a Christmas list of players that they were seeking out, and got a good portion of these for their team. This is the good news. The bad news is that there are a lot of players that have to go from a High School experience to a college environment. This as a result will take some time getting used to in the end. If they are able to adjust, then the rookies will be a breath of fresh air for the team.
There will be a lot of eyes that will be set on the teams passing game. With their talent gone due to graduation, there is a lot of interest that the team will have about how they will survive. The good news is that Nader Furrha has a laser arm that will be tough for the team to deny. This has been proven in spring workouts as the team has made an impressive showing in the few scrimmages that have been held.
There is no doubt that the leading thing that will have the team on the road to a National title will be the ground game that has been on target in the workouts thus far. The Wolverines will be able to take confidence that there will be few areas of concern in the running game of Michigan. This is the biggest area of good news that the team can have. There will need to be a lot stronger running game in place to make up for the fact that the team is losing a strong passing game.
2010 will be a season that Michigan will need to make sure they take full advantage of this season. there has been a lot of work that has been placed in the efforts of the team in regards to getting the most out of their new signees, this in addition to the fact that Rich Rodriguez is fighting for his coaching life. These facts will make 2010 a very interesting season that will be full of storylines to keep an eye out for. The fans are hoping that Michigan will be mentioned when it comes time to discuss the BCS title picture this season. All indications are that the jury is still out on these hopes.
