Michigan coach discusses Oregon's financial advantages ahead of matchup
Summary

Michigan football coach Kyle Whittingham spoke about Oregon's recruiting strength due to financial resources as the Wolverines prepare for their game against the Ducks on Saturday at Autzen Stadium. He praised Oregon coach Dan Lanning for his recruitment skills but noted that having over $50 million could give the Ducks an edge in attracting top talent. Michigan, which has struggled recently with four losses in its last six games, faces a resurgent Oregon team that has won its last two games after a mid-season slump. Both teams are adjusting after changes in their coaching staff, with Michigan also having fired its offensive coordinator this season. The matchup is set for 3:30 p.m. on November 14.
