Denver can get extreme weather, on a Friday you could be playing golf in 75 degree weather and then Saturday be covered in 3 feet of snow. On Saturday afternoon, a Gayle Force Wind hit Denver and blew Texas A&M back to College Station. Michigan was in one of its funks in the 2nd half, down 10 points and the Gayle Wind hit. Roddy Gayle went for 26 points breaking his slump and winning a game for the Wolverines. Michigan and Gayle found their mojo and won a game they were expected to lose. Watching his family in the stands seemed poetic justice for the OSU transfer.
No matter what happens on Friday at 9:40 against Auburn. Dusty gets an A+ grade for this season. Michigan had the worst team in the Big Ten last season and didn't even earn at CBB bid. Coach Howard left nothing behind as the program nearly burned to the ground. Dusty came in and rebuilt the roster, won the most Big Ten games for a coach new to the Big Ten, turned down his dream job at IU, won a Big Ten Tournament Championship, and now is in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Championship Tournament. A freaking plus!
- Michigan hosted the #1 player in the 2026 class this week in OT Jackson Cantwell. Jackson and the #1 recruit in the 2025 went bowling together. This is Jackson 2nd visit to Ann Arbor and Michigan remains a strong contender for his services.
- Michigan's Women's Basketball Team was knocked out of the tournament by ND on Sunday.
- I could be wrong but I think 3 starters from Dusty's FAU Final 4 run are still alive in the NCAA Tournament.
- Speaking of FAU, Charles Woodson and son visited FAU Football this weekend.. Sherrone, don't mess this one up and send the kid an offer.
- Maryland finally won a buzzer beater.
- When Michigan players get to the combine or Pro Day I'm sometimes shocked at how fast they are. It was DJ Turner speed last year, this year its Makari Paige who ran a 4.45 at Michigan's Pro Day this weekend.
- Breaking News: Justin Pippen has entered the Transfer Portal. Strange timing with the team still playing and probably the reason he hasn't played in the NCAA. He is with LeBron's agency Klutch Sports. I also found it strange I don't recall ever seeing Scottie at any games.

The only Michigan game Scottie Pippen ever attended was the football game vs. Texas. Not surprised to hear Justin's transferring. Never seemed to be a good fit.
