This "over-the-top" Michigan guy says SEC fans should to be scared in recruiting -- Michigan is now gonna spend big bucks...

Michigan Insider, "The SEC Should Be Very Afraid"

Everyone wants to take credit for for the Michigan Wolverines coup that landed the consensus No. 1 recruit in the country, quarterback Bryce Underwood.

Hailing from Michigan, it was a full-court press from famous alumni to flip Underwood's commitment from the LSU Tigers back to his home state. The NFL's GOAT and former Wolverine Tom Brady was credited as a "shadow figure" that was integral to land Belleville High School star, according to CBS Sports' Matt Zenitz, and obviously Barstool Sports' Dave Portnoy was bombastic in his efforts to land him too.

But after a statement from the Champions Circle, Michigan's cabal to land top recruits, a new name emerged: Jolin Ellison. Larry Ellison, 80, the Oracle Corporation tycoon and either second (Forbes has him at $237 billion) or third richest (Bloomberg has him at $208 billion) man in the world, fifth wife is a Michigan alum as well, allegedly. (She does not appear on any internet deep dive as his current wife.)

“We are very excited to keep Bryce home in Michigan as he continues to build his legacy," Champions Circle chairman Nate Forbes wrote. "I want to personally thank Larry [Ellison] and his wife Jolin who were instrumental in making this happen by providing Champions Circle with invaluable guidance and financial resources.”

“I am a big fan of the University of Michigan and Michigan Athletics. We are excited to support our student-athletes, so they can go compete at the highest level in college sports," Jolin Ellison, a Michigan alumna, added.

There is no proof that the below photo is Jolin Ellison, but the woman pictured is wearing a Michigan baseball cap and is attending a tennis tournament with the Oracle founder at Indian Wells, the famous tennis compound near Palm Springs, California, which Larry Ellison bought last year for $100 million. 

 

As far as how much it took to land the prized recruit, reports have it in the $10 million to $12 million range for over four years.

One user joked on X, formerly Twitter, that Jolin is a real-life Keyser Soze, the famous character in "The Usual Suspects" that was the secret mastermind. It's the perfect comparison.

Michigan fires offensive coordinator Kirk Campbell

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/42761816/michigan-fires-offensive-coordinator-kirk-campbell

 

Michigan investing significantly more in new offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey

Doug Samuels       Dec 21, 2024

Sherrone Moore and the Wolverines are committing significantly more to their new offensive coordinator hire than they did to Kirk Campbell.

After Sherrone Moore was elevated from offensive coordinator to head coach, one of his biggest decisions as a first-time head coach was elevating quarterbacks coach Kirk Campbell to the offensive coordinator spot.

It was a move that few questioned at the time, as the Wolverines had just captured a national title in due large part because of a stellar performance from quarterback JJ McCarthy all season long.

Campbell signed a three-year worth about a $1 million annually, but the Wolverines finished the 2024 season ranked 111th nationally in scoring and were 130th out of 134 teams in passing offense, sparking a change at play caller.

Moore and the Wolverines search led them to North Carolina offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey, who spent a few seasons at the head coach at Troy, and he's set to make significant more than his predecessor, Tony Garcia of the Detroit Free Press shares.

Tasked with leading a quarterback room that will feature one of the nation's top young quarterbacks, Bryce Underwood, who the Wolverines flipped in a very public manner from LSU with a monster NIL package, Lindsey will make a base salary of $4.5 million over three years.

Lindsey will make $1.4 million year one, $1.5 million year two, and $1.6 million Year 3.

Lindsey's incentives in his contract include:

  • $100k if top 4 offense in Big Ten
  • $100k if top 15 offense in the country
  • $50k for each win beyond a nine-win season (up to $200k)

Some of those incentives are quite lofty.

Dating back to 2016, Michigan has never had an offense that ranked higher than 24th nationally (2021 and 2022), and they've managed to finish among the top four in the Big Ten just three times since then.

Lindsey is also due a $60k signing bonus within 30 days of putting pen to paper (which was December 12th), the report adds.
