1. Locked On Wolverines - Daily Podcast On Michigan Wolverines Football & Basketball appears here as part of the Locked On Big Ten Squad discussing spring football and the 2026 outlook. 2. Spencer McLaughlin hosts with Mark Colkin, Jacob Goins, Nick Arvin, Zach Saka, Roman Tomashoff, Ryan Herring, Jay Stephens, Craig Sheeman, and later Matt Sheehan mentioned by name. 3. The episode asks how Big Ten teams look heading into spring football and how the conference's NCAA tournament bracket shapes up. 4. Mark Colkin says USC's biggest spring storyline is Lincoln Riley adding Gary Patterson on defense and Mike Eckler on special teams. 5. Colkin says USC is on spring break and has eight sessions left when camp resumes. 6. Jacob Goins says Indiana has become a football school and turns Drawergate into a running joke about a mysterious drawer slammer. 7. Roman Tomashoff says Washington's spring football begins on the 31st and that three true freshmen may burn redshirts in the trenches. 8. Tomashoff names Derek Colman-Brusa, T.I.U. Mukais, and Cody Green as the young players he will watch. 9. The panel says Jed Fish has placed high expectations on Washington's young linemen and that early winter-workout reports sound strong. 10. The conversation also revisits USC's move from Danton Lin to Gary Patterson and turns that into a debate about defensive coaching. 11. Craig Sheeman says Michigan was his favorite title pick a few weeks earlier but now worries about LJ Case disrupting the rotation. 12. Sheeman says Purdue is a two seed with an easier path after winning the Big Ten tournament, but he still warns about March history. 13. Nick Arvin says Purdue is not losing in the first round and expects the Boilermakers to reach at least the Sweet 16. 14. Ryan Herring says Wisconsin's backcourt of Boyd and Blackwell has been one of the better duos in Big Ten basketball. 15. Herring says Wisconsin has already beaten Michigan on the road, which is why he thinks the Badgers can beat a one seed. 16. The group debates which one seed loses first, with Florida, Arizona, and Michigan all coming up as possibilities. 17. The tone is loose, argumentative, and self-aware, with interruptions, jokes, and running bits like Drawergate and the 'missing drawer slammer.' 18. The format is a multi-host roundtable that jumps between football updates, bracket analysis, and sponsor reads. 19. Listeners who follow Big Ten football, bracketology, and team-specific banter will get the most out of it. 20. Listeners wanting a tightly focused Michigan-only show may want to skip it.
