The pod returns from a summer break with a solo mailbag edition. Ace answers your questions on Warde Manuel’s comments regarding Bo Schembechler (TW: the Robert Anderson case is discussed), the athletic department’s most successful year on the field in recent history, baseball being on the wrong end of a terrible (and possibly biased) blown call to end their season, how MBB recovers from Moussa Diabate and Caleb Houstan going pro, whether either hoops program has enough shooting, WBB’s outlook post-Naz, and if the softball program needs to alter their course.

We also spend a segment examining ESPN’s FEI projections for the Big Ten and Michigan’s non-conference opponents and take a guess at which teams will over- and under-perform. Other topics include a Texas lineman’s rant about their program culture and NIL, the WNBA’s ideally paced but poorly produced draft, ESPN finding unusual ways to present data, Wisconsin OL pack watch, and more.

This week we cover one of the better weekends in Michigan basketball and athletics history, focusing on the basketball. First, we go over the men’s run to the Sweet Sixteen, how they best Colorado State and Tennessee, and how they match up with Villanova. After a little Big Ten in the tournament talk, we flip over to women’s side to review their opening weekend victories over American and Villanova, then examine their chances at fending off upset-minded South Dakota and how the bracket could shake out from there.
