I used to write about college basketball (and michigan, specifically) a lot back in the day. as you may have heard, the wolverines won the national title.
I dusted off my keyboard, so to speak, and published a post about the team / coach / program on substack. was fun to write about hoops again.

I suspect my michigan mutuals will enjoy this one. to be honest, losing the community I had on twitter post-musk was hard. but some of you are on here, which is great! haven't posted on here as much as I thought I would, but alas. anyways! read! share! subscribe! etc!

gayle - great teammate and defender, march roddy!
mckenney - such a gifted youngster, gonna be a superstar
cason - do NOT forget him, he was awesome pre-injury
cheddar - heart and soul of the team, great leader

cadeau - wonderful redemption story, genius passer
burnett - suffered through a lot, program guy, elite role player
lendeborg - as close to lebron as I've seen in college
johnson - best lunch pail / hard hat guy M's had in decades
mara - an alien among mortal men, more or less
oh sweet armageddon isn't happening today maybe we can talk about how the michigan wolverines just won the national championship
wanna spend my last day celebrating the natty vs panicking about a trump post
can't believe I gotta work my silly laptop job while our president threatens to commit genocide against a hundred million people
let's go dude! man I miss it - happy for everyone I've met in this community over the years
skeeps trip tomorrow
all-time blunder
before the season it was like "feel like we don't have enough shooting, curious to see how the bigs all fit together" and it's just funny to think back to that given how fantastic these guys were all year.
and we only needed 2 threes to win the national championship.
this team was a delight all season. they deserve this. they really were the best we've ever had.
go fuckin blue
!!!
go blue. this team is simply incredible
we were warned before our honeymoon in nice but didn't have any issues there (or in milan)
this matchup feels much more like a steven bardo special than an elite 8 game. but it's been a good one
I know @statsbywill.bsky.social was thinking very powerfully about this upcoming elite 8 matchup when the bracket was released
welcome to east lansing brother
regardless of how it ends, this season was the best I've seen as a fan. these guys have been dominant and just really fun to watch.
yaxel said "maybe the best michigan team of all time" in the post-game interview. I'd... probably agree with that.
forever my goat
but kenpom's website said notre dame is a better team than them!!!
still don't really understand why so many people spent the last couple of months hating on this miami team. oh an algorithm says they're bad, actually? who cares!! how often does a mac team go undefeated? they're awesome. let's be serious.
