SPOTLIGHT: Michigan Wolverines Whittingham Hire—CBS and Athletic CELEBRATE Underwood's Prospects

Michigan Wolverines earn high marks for hiring Kyle Whittingham, but is he the long-term answer in Ann Arbor? CBS Sports grades the move an "A," applauding Whittingham's fit with Michigan's identity and offensive scheme, while The Athletic offers a more skeptical "A-", citing concerns about his potential tenure and scandal stabilization narrative.
