I really appreciated Jack Miller's decision yesterday. I don't know him personally but it seems the wear and tear of football took a toll on him and he decided not to play his 5th and final year so he could focus on his studies and his life after football. He basically has started at center the last two years and pretty much had the job if he wanted. Congratulations Jack at keeping your life in perspective! I wish you nothing but good luck in your life after football!
Michigan and Coach B blitzed Illinois yesterday early and never looked back for an easy win in the first round of the Big Ten tournament. Today of course they have the honor of playing the #1 seed Wisconsin Badgers and are a 12 point dog. With the win on Friday, Michigan will finish no worse then .500 for the year and that most likely will give them an NIT bid as they carry a brand name. Wisconsin has the size Michigan doesn't, so lets hope Michigan can keep the ball moving and the 3 ball sinking. Teams never like seeing Coach B's team in a tournament.
- Michigan had it's pro day yesterday and it seems Funchess ran better then he did in at the combine, getting timed around the 4.5 mark.
- Jake Ryan was quoted as saying that "it went well!"
- Raymon Taylor ran around a 4.4 in the 40.
- Delonte Hollowell ran a 4.34, which is very fast
- Devin Gardner also said he was happy with his performance.
- There seemed to be scouts from Detroit, New England, Cleveland, Green Bay, Minnesota and Washington at Schembechler Hall on Thursday.

The thing about M Basketball was this, the young kids have hung in there without their big guns on the floor to help them. Next year they will be a lot different. Good job guys....proud of you.
