Indiana coach Curt Cignetti suggested that Michigan could use two quarterbacks, Tommy Carr and Bryce Underwood, in its upcoming game against Indiana. Michigan coach Kyle Whittingham neither confirmed nor denied that possibility.
The comments leave open whether Michigan plans to rotate the quarterbacks or use one in a specific role. No details were provided about how either player might be used, whether a decision has been made, or when Michigan might announce its plans.
The available information also does not specify the date or location of the game, or provide further details about the circumstances behind Cignetti’s remarks.

Cignetti’s suggestion is the only indication in the summary that Michigan may use both quarterbacks; Whittingham’s response did not confirm the approach.
For now, the possibility remains unconfirmed.
