Michigan Thursday: Will WMU Fish Out of Jimmy's Pond?

When I heard PJ Fleck was leaving for the Golden Gophers, my first thought was which Michigan assistants would interview for the Western job.

It seems that Michigan has two assistants that are or could be in the interview circle.

#1 is Tyrone Wheatley: Coach Wheat is known as a great recruiter and RB coach. He is a legend in Detroit, has NFL playing experience, and also coached in the NFL. I think this would be an interesting choice but his lack of a coordinator role might make this jump to big of one.

#2 is Tim Drevno who of course is Michigan's OC and just signed a 5 year $1M a year contact with Michigan.
