The Wildcats are 7-4 with losses to all their ranked opponents, and Pope has let his emotions fly over the last month. The head coach disclosed on his Monday radio show that he was directed not to speak above a conversational volume for a few days. Pope is dealing with vocal strain from excessive shouting during practices and games. "It's been a pretty emotional several weeks, and it's been taxing on my voice," Pope said, via A Sea of Blue's Tristan Pharis.

The suit comes after months of DOJ demands for complete state voting registration lists, which Nevada and other states have repeatedly denied and called intimidation in an effort to influence elections. President Donald Trump lost all 18 states in the 2020 election, with Nevada one of three states with Republican governors.

"Despite our simple requests for information on how they're going to keep this data…...

Sherrone Moore, who took over for Jim Harbaugh, was fired "for cause" on Dec. 10 after the university said it found "credible evidence" of an inappropriate relationship with a staff member and called it a clear violation of policy.

The 5-star quarterback, former LSU commit, and centerpiece of Michigan's future signed a massive NIL deal reportedly worth eight figures over four years. Crucially, multiple reports say that NIL agreement does not include a buyout, giving Underwood flexibility to move if he wants as he watches how Michigan handles this coaching search.

Or so the thinking went. That held true. For the Wildcats' first five games, at least. Freshman Malachi Moreno, hailing from nearby Georgetown, forced himself into the lineup after a string of good-to-great performances off the bench. Now, the pair have switched roles: Moreno starts.
