Chris Fowler, regarding Pete Golding, just said "Remember Steve Fisher and the Fab Five?" Fisher did coach the Fab Five, but the team he went on an NCAA Tournament run won their title in 1989, and the Fab Five were freshmen in 1991.

Michigan women are going to beat Washington by 30 in frustration or lose by the same amount in exhaustion. No middle ground.

No one involved in the administration of the Michigan/Oregon WBB game should get another D1 assignment for a long while, maybe especially the timekeeper

An English phrase for when someone is getting on your nerves is “you’re driving me up the wall.” A German equivalent is auf die Palme bringen, which essentially means “you’re driving me up the palm tree.”

Hey @freep.com why cover MSU hiring Fitz as an unalloyed good thing? As a Northwestern grad, I would note that he was fired in disgrace for at best being negligent in preventing hazing in his program and also that he went 4-20 in his final two years as a head coach. To only talk his upside looks bad

Trying to remember a team I root for that has made me cackle with delight as much as this year’s Michigan basketball teams, both of them.

Can anyone ask who at Warner decided that maximum Pearl family content would be ratings dynamite? It’s so grating. @cjzero.bsky.social

What is your biggest concert flex?

@stevengodfrey.bsky.social I remember Po’ Folks! Ate there in a spring break road trip from Michigan to Disney World. I remember it being way better than Cracker Barrel and having the slogan “We’s po’ but we’s proud.” Intense cringe stuff.
