About this episode

Aidan discusses his early childhood experiences, interests outside of football and relationships with his father (Chris Hutchinson), mother (Melissa Hutchinson) and older sisters (Aria & Mia Hutchinson).

High school head coach John Filiatraut comes on to detail how talented Aidan was early on in his Divine Child High School football career. Michigan football head coach Jim Harbaugh, Chris and Aidan all offer stories from his recruitment to Michigan and ultimately his decision to become a Wolverine.
