- Yax was at Golden State @ Clippers last night. We wish him good luck with the NBA Draft!
- I trust Dusty, but the lack of transfer portal commits is making me a bit nervous
- It seems the new Michigan Football staff is finding its footing for the 2027 class. Always a slow start when you have a brand new staff.
- Michigan and Marquette has signed a home and home. First game is at Crisler next November.
- Mara seems to be leaning to the NBA Draft while keeping his college eligibility
- Not sure we are going to learn much from the Spring Game this weekend if its the 2's and 3's. Which is fine with me. Keep the real offense and defense under wraps.
- New Michigan President has brain cancer and will not take office, we wish him well and good health through this process.
- Oscar Goodman is back next year for Michigan Basketball.

I've said it before, in today's college landscape, its going to be harder to repeat for National Championships. Indiana in football and Michigan in basketball have shown the blueprint. My next statement might ruffle the feathers of a few, but Yes Virginia, you can buy a championship in college sports today.
There's plenty of programs with plenty of money, and seeing what Michigan did, will unfortunately overpay for players. They say pro sports leagues are copy cat leagues...so is college but without the guardrails. without a salary cap, teams will get stupid and pay guys obscene amounts of money, even more than they'd get in the pros. The only check and balance will be programs and their boosters getting burned, i.e. paying huge money and not winning it all. but then for every program that gets gun shy, you'll have a handful that will jump in with both feet, flush with booster money.
Winning the Naty was both a boon and a bust for Michigan. While making the tournament run, other programs were already reaching out to perspective portal players, making inroads. That coupled with players on the current roster that want to hedge their bets and have one foot in the NBA and one foot in Ann Arbor will handcuff Dusty May.
I am all for players making that bread...but there must be rules and regulations in place....
Blue for life....ching ching....
Sharrone Moore is a good man he just made a poor choice...being a man it is hard to say "No" to a pretty attractive females...
Blue foe Life
Excellent write! Should be required reading for anyone liking/disliking NIL. Chowman must be a carpenter, because he hit the nail square on it's head. Did not give the over payment question (NBA/college or NFL/college but witnessing in front of my eyes players making more in college than NFL. Did not see it myself, but Michigan/Indiana pointed the way. It's going to be a bidding war that ends in salary caps like pro sports. {excuse my ignorance > college is PRO sports!!!
