"If you’re wondering how bad things are in Ann Arbor right now…. even I was 2-0 against IU," he wrote on X.

"The players deserve better," he added. "We have all the pieces. I believe in (head coach) Sherrone (Moore) but his staff is failing him. Hopefully he makes some big changes after the season."

Michigan has had a tough season as it tried to navigate the pressures of being a defending national champion while losing head coach Jim Harbaugh to the NFL.

The Wolverines started the season ranked No. 9 in the country but fell to No. 3 Texas in their second game of the season. The team picked up a big win over No. 11 USC but has not made a splash outside that victory all season.

Michigan has two games left on the schedule – at home against Northwestern and on the road against Ohio State. The Wolverines have not lost to the Buckeyes since 2019.

Michigan is 5-5 on the season and needs one more win to be bowl eligible. The last time Michigan missed out on a bowl game in a non-coronavirus impacted season was in 2014 – that was Brady Hoke’s final season before Harbaugh took over.

The team missed a bowl in 2020 when they were 2-4 in six games.
