    The Big Ten has largely gone through Ohio State or Michigan in recent history, but Big Ten expansion brings new challenges in 2024. West Coast powers USC, Oregon, Washington and UCLA are joining the conference, making the competition even tougher for a program that should already get everyone's best shot as the defending national champions. New coach Sherrone Moore opened Michigan football camp on Wednesday and has work to do as the Wolverines move on to the post-Jim Harbaugh era. The Wolverines are looking for a new quarterback, a new top receiver and a ton of pieces in the trenches on the 2024 Michigan football roster.

    Top Michigan Wolverines practice storylines

    If experience is the main factor, former Indiana transfer Jack Tuttle could have a slight edge in the quarterback battle. Tuttle transferred from Indiana following the 2022 season after appearing in 15 games for the Hoosiers. He completed 104 of 182 passing attempts for 901 yards and five touchdowns. He was solid in relief of McCarthy last season, completing 15 of 17 passes.

    He'll be pushed, however, by a less experienced quarterback with a ton of athletic upside in Alex Orji. The rising junior saw action in both College Football Playoff matchups for the Wolverines last year, but was only used as a runner. How he throws the ball in camp could go a long way in determining who gets the first snaps against Fresno State on Aug. 31. Get more updates on the Michigan QB at The Michigan Insider .

    Another one of the Michigan football headlines surrounds the style of offense that Moore will implement. When Moore filled in for a suspended Harbaugh late in 2023, Michigan largely leaned on its ground game. However, Michigan might not be dominant on the offense line this season and Moore will have time to implement his own wrinkles.

    With a strong defense and running game leading the way most seasons, the Wolverines never finished in the top three of the Big Ten in passing under Harbaugh. It's unlikely that Moore will completely overhaul the program's philosophy, but fans are eager to see if Michigan airs it out more in 2024 and beyond.
