Michigan Tuesday: Wolverines Win With A Football Score

The Michigan Baseball team played in the NCAA Regional Final last night, scored two touchdowns and added a late field goal.  The defense was the story of the game as the Wolverines held Creighton to two field goals.   The Michigan Baseball team won 17-6 in Corvallis, Oregon and now moves to the Super Regional.

Good luck in the next round!

  • The Big Ten today is expected to announce today that Minnesota Vikings COO Kevin Warren as its new Commissioner.   Finally we have a replacement for Jim Delany, who never addressed any issues the Big Ten has ever had.  Jim is also to thank for Rutgers and Maryland entrance into the Big Ten.  Let's hope this in a new and better chapter for the Big 10. 

  • Juwan is starting to fill out his staff.  Phil Martelli has accepted an assistant coaching role and an offer is out to NY Knicks assistant Howard Eisely.   Many Michigan fans are praising the Martelli hire but questioning the Eisely hire as a "wildcard".  Here's the deal, the 3rd assistant is always a wildcard and an un-proven coach.  He played high school basketball in Detroit and I'm sure will work very hard for Juwan.   Yes, I would have loved Mike Miller, but Phil took his spot and he certainly wasn't coming to Ann Arbor as the #3 assistant. 

  • Sam Webb confirmed with Oliver Martin's parents that he isn't going anywhere. 

  • Michigan Baseball players Tommy Henry (#74 to AZ) and Karl Kauffman (#77 to Col.) were drafted last night.   Congratulations to both on a great night! 

  • Oakland Transfer Cumberland picked Cincinnati to play with his cousin.   The options for Michigan to fill the open 3 spots is started to get very limited. 

  • Dax Hill is on campus and ready to contribute to Defense, Special Teams, and maybe even offense. 

  • Chase Winovich signed with the Pats yesterday.  4 years at $3.8M with a $1M signing bonus. 

  • Jimmy is very high on 4 star TE Theo Johnson out of Windsor.  There is a story from the Midwest camp this weekend and Jimmy calling his mom from Theo's phone to get him to Ann Arbor for a camp.

Dax Hill. Let's not wear the kid out even before he has played one down. Remember the old saying, "Jack of all trades, master of none?" Let him master his defensive position and maybe special teams before overloading his plate.
