Happy Friday, everybody.

It's Friday, April 10th, 2026.

This is the Michigan Insider.

This is the Big 1050 WTK online at the big 1050.com. And that was a late night.

That was a very late night with a very disappointing end

as the Michigan hockey season came to an end in double overtime last night in their loss to Denver.

We'll obviously be talking about that.

We heard from Brandon Nerato, T.J. Hughes and Josh Ernestey after the game.

So we'll get to that coming up in a little bit here on the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050 WTCA online at the big 1050.com. Needless to say a lot to get to here on the show this morning here on the Michigan Insider as we get ready for the weekend. A lot to discuss. We will get into Michigan football. Kyle Whittingham met with the media yesterday. So we'll be discussing what he had to say. We'll hear what he had to say as well. So excited to get into the football conversation as we are now eight days away

until the Michigan football spring game, which is next Saturday at 2 p.m.

at Michigan Stadium.

So excited about our football conversation coming up this morning here on the show.

We also will have our conversation this morning at around 825 with Brian Bush,
