Season summary

Preseason

After winning a Big Ten Conference championship in 1964, culminating with a victory over Oregon State in the 1965 Rose Bowl, Michigan compiled a disappointing 4–6 record and tied for seventh place in the Big Ten during the 1965 season.

Starters returning on offense from the 1965 team included halfback Carl Ward, end Jack Clancy, and fullback Dave Fisher. Quarterback Dick Vidmer, who started three games in 1965, returned as the team's starting quarterback in 1966. Jim Detwiler, who missed most of the 1965 season and underwent ACL surgery on his knee, returned to the 1966 squad and became the Big Ten's leading scorer.[5][6] A key player who did not return from the 1965 offense was offensive tackle Tom Mack who was chosen by the Los Angeles Rams with the second overall pick in the 1966 NFL Draft.[7]

On defense, Rich Volk and Mike Bass returned at the cornerback positions, and Frank Nunley returned at linebacker. Key players who did not return from the 1965 squad included All-American defensive tackle Bill Yearby and linebacker Tom Cecchini who became a member of Michigan's coaching staff.

The coaching staff also underwent changes in 1966. In February, Michigan added Don James (inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1997) and George Mans to replace defensive assistants Bob Hollway and Don Dufek Sr.[8][9] Y. C. McNease was also added as ends and linebackers coach in April, replacing Jack Nelson.[10] William A. Dodd, who played fullback and halfback for Michigan in 1962 and 1963, was hired in June as the freshman football coach, freeing up Dennis Fitzgerald to join the varsity coaching staff.[11]

Michigan's 1966 recruiting class included two players who were later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame: quarterback (later converted to safety) Tom Curtis and end Jim Mandich. Other members of the 1966 recruiting class were end Phil Seymour, halfback Garvie Craw, linebacker Cecil Pryor, tight end Mike Hankwitz, and quarterback Barry Pierson.[12]
