From Chemo to Michigan Football QB1 - the Miraculous Story of Davis Warren

After earning QB1 for Michigan's 2024 season, Davis Warren isn’t just battling defenses—he’s competing against a $15M recruit, a stacked QB room, and the pressure of leading Team #146.

In this episode, #120 of What Dewey Do?, Davis lays it all out—his path to QB1, winning over Alex Orji, beating rivals Michigan State, Ohio State, and Alabama, and leading Michigan Football into the future. 

He unpacks what it means to be a true Michigan Man, his devastating ACL injury, the current QB competition with Bryce Underwood, and how NIL and the transfer portal are reshaping college football. 

Davis also shares his full-circle cancer story, from diagnosis to cure, and how it fuels his purpose to give back!
