Things discussed:
- What’s going on with Harbaugh? Talk exceeds the substance—tepid interest from Harbaugh, tepid interest from the NFL. Vikings might do something goofy but barring that he’s back.
- Will we get an announcement? Yeah, there will be a contract.
- What went down with Macdonald? He seemed like an NFL guy, don’t understand why they dropped Wink, but Wink was a successor to Pees, and maybe John thought Macdonald was the real engine. Everyone agrees he’s a genius.
- Clink is going to be the co-DC. Not going to find a guy with the same system; just need find someone who can fit the same personnel.
- Mac brought us a strategy that could beat Ohio State. Gotta have that. You can play man the rest of the year.
- Also need a LBs coach. Michigan going to ask Larry Foote?
- Hoops: We let Craig Ross go off. Rob Riley is an abomination, shouldn’t be reffing in the Big Ten. This is the crew that ran off Beilein.
- Game is different if HD doesn’t get that 3rd foul. Moving screens were on Jones. Moussa got a terrible charge call where the guy was sliding under him.
- Shout out to Faulds. Support playing him over Johns given how badly Johns was playing (the shoe!)
- IU game: Woodson got outcoached by Howard, TJD looked tired.
- MSU has been getting RIDICULOUS officiating the last three games. End of Northwestern game they were actively trying to give MSU chances, Illinois had a huge lead until the officials brought State back, and Wisconsin got doubled up in fouls at home. Doesn’t bode well for Breslin. MSU could not stop Frazier—they have a blow-by problem at guard again. They also can’t decide who to play at center, even if it’s obviously Bingham.
- Caleb Houstan’s renaissance: The more space you create the better he’s going to be, because he’s a lethal Just a Shooter™ but isn’t great at contested shots and doesn’t get it off quickly.
