Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore weighs in on Purdue matchup

Michigan head coach Sherrone Moore spoke about Purdue during his Monday radio show this week, giving them their props despite sitting at 2-6.

“Yeah, I mean, first of all, I know Coach Odom is a great coach,” Moore said. “He’s from winning backgrounds, done it at a high level at Arkansas, coached at UNLV, and had those guys win at a high level. Their offense is good. Their offense, they’ve got skill. They’ve got guys like Nitro Tuggle to transfer. I think he’s from Georgia.

Quarterback transfer’s good. The Mockobee kid, the running back, he runs so hard. He runs so physical. We’ve faced him in the Big Ten Championship in ’22, and they’ve got two quarterbacks. One of them’s the mobile guy, but the other one’s mobile as well. So they’re a good offense, and defensively, they do just enough to keep you off balance. Got some familiar transfers like Breeon Ishmael that’s over there. Got a couple of former five-star players playing corner. So it’ll be a challenge.

Michigan’s contest against the Boilermakers officially kicks off at 7:10 p.m. in Ann Arbor on Saturday night on Big Ten Network, which leads into the team’s second bye week of the season next weekend. The Wolverines return to the field in Chicago on Nov. 15 against the Northwestern Wildcats at Wrigley Field, home of the MLB’s Chicago Cubs.
