EXPLODE: Michigan Football’s Bryce Underwood & Andrew Marsh SET the Stage for STAR-MAKING Success

·29 min·1 clip

Bryce Underwood is the face of Michigan football and the offense will go as far as he takes it.

1. Locked On Wolverines examines which Michigan football names could become the next standouts after Bryce Underwood and Andrew Marsh were singled out by teammates. 2. Isaiah Wohl hosts the show, publishes Wolverines Wire through USA Today Sports Media Group, and uses the episode to rank current and future Wolverines by breakout potential. 3. The episode asks which Michigan players can become “future stars” after Ray Sean Benny and Marlin Klein both highlighted Bryce Underwood and Andrew Marsh. 4. Wohl says Bryce Underwood is the “face of Michigan football” and argues the offense will go as far as Underwood can carry it. 5. He adds that Underwood still needs the run game, the offensive line, and the defense to function together, or the team can be forced into uncomfortable game scripts. 6. Wohl says he watched a JD Piquel video about what to expect from Underwood and repeats the view that fans saw only part of the full quarterback experience last year. 7. He says there was no clear point in the season where Underwood’s improvement from week 1 to week 12 was obvious. 8. Andrew Marsh is the other name Wohl spends time on, and he notes that Marsh finished 16th in the Big Ten in receiving yards with 651. 9. Wohl points out that Marsh was seventh in the country in October with 20 catches for 321 yards and fourth in November with 290 yards. 10. He says Marsh finished fifth in Big Ten play with 41 catches for 611 yards and even ahead of several other conference receivers in yards per game. 11. Wohl calls Marsh’s year-one output strong for a first-year player and says receivers usually make their biggest jump from year one to year two. 12. The tight end room gets attention through Hogan Hansen and Jalen Hoffman, with Wohl saying Hansen was expected to benefit from the Chip Lindsey offense before injury slowed him and Hoffman flashed on the spring-game touchdown from Bryce Underwood. 13. On the offensive line, Wohl mentions Andrew Sprague while saying he would have picked Jake Ornoros or Blake Frazier first. 14. He also argues that the line could suddenly produce “stars across college football,” citing Trevor Keegan and Zach Zinter as examples of players who took a bigger step after their first starts. 15. Wohl’s offensive future-star list includes JJ Buchanan, Jamie French, and Celess Mola, and he says that trio could open up more space for each other. 16. He also names Savion Hyder and says a running back who arrives and produces immediately could become a real year-one contributor. 17. The episode shifts to a more improvised, fast-moving style as Wohl talks through awards, roster turnover, and “time to shine” candidates while moving quickly between names. 18. The tone is conversational and speculative, with Wohl repeatedly correcting himself, jumping between position groups, and reacting in real time to the roster. 19. Michigan fans tracking quarterbacks, receivers, and breakout candidates will get the most from this episode. 20. Listeners wanting a tightly edited recap without roster-rundown detours may skip it.
