There's no quarterback controversy at Michigan football, at least not in the mind of new offensive coordinator Josh Gattis.

U-M coach Jim Harbaugh made some surprising comments at Big Ten media days last month, saying he intended to play last season's starter, senior Shea Patterson, and junior Dylan McCaffrey "in every game" this season.

The way Gattis spoke about Patterson on Wednesday in Ann Arbor, there's no doubt who is the offensive leader.
