Kyle Whittingham Hit With Another Roster Blow as Promising Michigan Player Leaves Program With Three Games Left
- On Wednesday, Oregon head coach Dan Lanning responded to Michigan Wolverines head coach Kyle Whittingham's comments regarding the Ducks' NIL budget, criticizing the struggling Wolverines' recent coaching staff expenditures.
- Earlier in the week, Whittingham praised Lanning but added that "it doesn't hurt that you have $50 million at your disposal to, in essence, to outbid everybody" when recruiting players.
- Lanning countered that the Ducks "spend to win" and that "some people save to have an excuse for why they don't ," defending his program's approach.
- Michigan recently fired offensive coordinator Jason Beck, who is owed up to $10.1 million in a buyout after the team averaged just 19.6 points per game in nine games.
- Both programs will settle the dispute on the field Saturday at 12:30 p.m. PT at Autzen Stadium, with Oregon seeking momentum and Michigan attempting to stabilize their season.
