Things discussed:
- Detroit Day: rename the BBQ at the Big House—they’re letting Detroit know they’re a priority post-Brown.
- Craig: Local players have a stronger connection to the program.
- Gattis extension: Can’t recruit on a short contract. What if Michigan needs out?
- Hunter Dickinson draft: Like Livers last year, he’s probably just getting an evaluation, but it does start the clock that he’s probably leaving after 2021-‘22.
- Break Talk: Red Wings are cursed, NHL never has a problem getting other franchises the first overall pick.
- Owen Power first overall? Seth: how many years did the Wings get to the trade deadline needing a solid defenseman, and Power is that as a floor.
- Which NHL teams will leave our players in college? Which guys are we keeping?
- Michigan baseball: bit by the good pitching, last year’s run was good pitching too. They’re in a really tough regional: host Notre Dame might be the worst team.
- Naomi Osaka and the role of press conferences.
