Transcript
00:13ian eagle on the call 248-539-9797 so a few things we're looking for today one is people
00:19who were there i just saw a tweet and uh did i lose it i think i did uh reply
00:25a reporter for
00:26the athletic said that she went up to the 600 level to check out sort of like how it was
00:33going
00:33up there because it's a football stadium and you get up there and she said it's about vibes not views
00:38uh if you were up there uh or if you you know got in the building what was your experience
00:44like
00:45248-539-9797 the other thing is who are you most happy for today whether it be a player or
00:52coach
00:52whether it be your uncle your kids your your dad your mom whomever who are you who are you most
00:59happy for today michigan fans 248-539-9797 because on this michigan team the players that they brought
01:08in it feels like only one of them was sort of ushered out and that was elliot cadeau and elliot
01:19cadeau won the most outstanding player and i want to be as accurate as i can be because social media
01:25doesn't always represent reality um but there was a lot of good riddance stuff posted when elliot
01:33cadeau left north carolina and you know he wouldn't be missed and he took a lot of heat for for
01:39north
01:39carolina's failings and and to see that kid persevere and to play the game he did and he talked about
01:48selfless selflessness i don't know how many times he threw the ball off the backboard in the in the
01:54arizona game but part of their game plan was if you can't throw the lob try to throw it off
02:01the
02:01backboard tomorrow because a dimara is such a an alien that if he gets the ball near the hoop it's
02:07like
02:08it's like jalen duran he's gonna dunk it or be able to finish it and that is literally running up
02:13the
02:14field goal attempts on his stats and i don't know how many times he did it there were a couple
02:18times
02:18that it felt in retrospect once i found out that was part of the game plan he went back and
02:22watched
02:22the arizona game it felt like there were a couple times it was obvious that he was just throwing it
02:27off the backboard that is a selfless don't care about my stats kind of play and he finished with 10
02:32assists but how many more were in that game yeah in that game he finished with 10 assists but how
02:37many
02:37more of those assists were when in the book is a missed shot when when his his goal was trying
02:44to
02:44get it tomorrow off the glass and you know it's i think that's the kid that i'm i'm happiest for
02:53on this team because i think you know looking back at it he was probably the only one that the
03:00fan base
03:00again being careful with social media but that there was postings about good riddance when he left his
03:06previous school 248-539-9797 let's go to kelly on 97.1 hello kelly hi i'm very very happy for

04:20who are you happiest for kelly thank you for the phone call 248-539-9797 kang brought it up
04:25the fireworks near south you was an interesting distraction from destruction i was gonna say
04:32from the from the fire yeah there were only two arrests that i saw but there were some fires but
04:3840 fires it was an effort to uh to try and distract people i don't know where those fireworks came
04:45when the fireworks said look here everyone looked up and stopped and then no but i thought that was
04:52cool i mean i don't know how much it helped or didn't help but i thought it was something it
04:56was
04:56a distraction for at least you know when i was taking this atm machine we're good form the drones
05:02and say please stop and pick up after yourselves we're not flipping over this car look at the fireworks
05:07yeah uh you're have you heard from your niece this morning who's a student in michigan she texted me
05:12immediately that last night after they won what was her her game plan yesterday was she was in line
05:17or did she no um it was my niece's cousin oh okay uh that was uh i think eventually they
05:23just decided
05:24they were going to um watch at home somewhere with a with a bunch of uh student friends yeah um
05:31but
05:32there was it was definitely contemplation of of spending the day out at the bar you know camping out
05:39waiting to get in because if you weren't camped out you weren't gonna be able to get a table and
05:42right you know i mean look when you're in college you're going to when you go to the bar you're
05:47not
05:47really worried about getting a table you just want to get in right sure those places fill up
05:52on a night like that i can only imagine it filled up within an hour it's done it's packed and
05:57then you
05:57have to wait for someone to leave before the next person comes in and that sucks yeah

07:49texting back and forth so it was a it was great i'm super happy and uh yeah good stuff man
07:54go blue
07:54go blue 248-539-9797 from an unnamed texter getting nba-bound players to actually care to play
08:03hurt that clearly have a love for each other and their coaches and the university it's incredible
08:08that's from an unnamed texter yaksa lindeborg what an effort his halftime speech was so honest in
08:14that shot of lj case and talking him up on the bench just shows how unselfish this team was they
08:18wanted it for each other that's from jamie uh from tim in a truck i just want to point out
08:23the
08:23last time michigan won the ncaa championship the pistons won the nba championship that same year as
08:28well yes they did 248-539-9797 my girlfriend is a senior at u of m i graduated from michigan
08:37state
08:37last year very happy for her celebrating yesterday but i have a sour taste in my mouth
08:41to see them win looked out everybody's a michigan fan today right and so
08:49but michigan state fans love their coach do you think the coach is motivated today
08:56oh yeah yeah i think that's safe to say i think he's motivated every day i think he is every
09:00day
09:01but they're bringing back a ton of talent and so you know i mean look i don't expect you to
09:07celebrate
09:08this win but there is like we when we talk about next year seth davis has michigan state number one
09:14in the country next year jeff borzello from espn has michigan number one the athletic has illinois number
09:20one and it's impossible to know who's going to make up the rosters right i mean you can have an
09:26idea
09:27at this point before the portal goes but i guess there's some reporting of people know that who's not
09:32going to go into the portal for certain schools okay who's not going to go pro and you've got
09:37incoming freshman classes you can go from that standpoint but you still don't really know um
09:42one thing i think we can all say pretty soundly though is the big tens in good shape it is
09:47in very
09:47good shape um i think all three of those different polls have all three of those teams in the top
09:52in the top seven i mean the athletic had michigan state at seven illinois at one michigan at two
09:57i think it was jay williams on the post game last night who said look who's won the last three
10:01national championships in football look who just cut down nets in men's and women's basketball
10:07and he he said nla nil is everyone playing with the same rules i think it was j j williams
10:13and it's
10:14been very very good for the big ten it is the big ten flexing its muscle well in college basketball
10:20has changed because it used to be who has the best recruiting class who's got the best freshman and
10:24you had kentucky with every year they'd have three to five five star recruits and duke was
10:29the same way north carolina was the same way these were the blue blood uh programs that were were doing
10:35it and and teams in the big ten would you know might have a couple guys in the top 50
10:40or the top 100
10:41and that's it um things have changed now because it's no longer necessarily just about your incoming
10:48freshman they play a role but it's more about the veterans you can get in and who you can get
10:52in the
10:52transfer class um but if you do what i mean a lesson can certainly be learned by what dusty
10:59may was able to accomplish here but i really do think that's kind of a one-off for him because
11:03now
11:03that they've got the foundation there they've got guys are clearly going to come back now you're no
11:09longer replacing an entire team that went eight and 24 a couple years ago now you're able to reload on
11:16a national championship team or fortify national championship team might be the better way to look
11:21look at it because you're not replacing five guys no and then you know they've when you take
11:28over a program and you're eight and 24 there's your choices are okay do i have time to build this
11:37through freshman should i hit the portal hard and i mean the four guys they brought in this year it's
11:44not unusual to get four guys like four guys is not a ton but he got four and the fifth
11:49from last year
11:49right yes he got four really like perfect pieces like puzzle pieces that fit together perfectly
11:59and it was on the on display all season long uh who are you happiest for were you there what
12:04was
12:04the experience like it's carson anderson here on 97 one
12:08you
