Things discussed:
- Salute to Carol Hutchins. She surprised us all, and deserved to. Immediate situation isn't a concern. The program's long-term health is fantastic, and she built that. Women's sports at Michigan are fantastic, and she built them. She became the winningest coach in Michigan athletics history when I was in college in the early 2000s. Her name is up there with Yost. Who are we to have opinions on when she retires?
- August football
- Financial windfall from conference, paying the refs? Brian: will be the same people. Seth: not long-term. It's not a profession right now but a lifestyle, so you're working out of a tiny pool.
- Want to see honest UFRs of their officiating, like MLB now provides.
- Fall camp: situation sounds like exactly what we thought it was.
- Eyabi Anoma: Further scouting.
- TJ Guy: OLB vs DE. Can he crash?
- We won't know if they can stop the run until Iowa because nobody is going to run until UConn.
- NIL players' collective: 18% off the top seems too high for that to be a good deal.
