Warde Manuel Out at Michigan | Michigan Wolverines Football News
Description
Michigan’s AD Warde Manuel is stepping down at the end of 2026, ending a period of speculation and marking a fresh start for the athletic department. Though he’s faced criticism for hiring missteps — especially in football — his tenure also brought national titles in football, basketball, and gymnastics. His planned exit allows for a smooth transition, avoiding an interim hire and letting the incoming university president make the next big decision. With fan and stakeholder pressure mounting, this move signals a reset — and the search for the right leader to rebuild trust and steer Michigan athletics into the future.
