And we are back folks here on the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050 WTCA online at the big 1050.com,

the sweet 16 again for the Michigan women's basketball team.

And, you know, I hadn't said this before this morning, but to look around and to see the amount of respect, the amount of praise and shine that women's, Michigan women's basketball

is receiving on the national level. I mean, it just, it gives you a feeling that we haven't

really experienced before.

And who we have to thank for that.

She has the program rolling.

There's a job to do a game before us.

But boy, just taking it all in, the experience of the nation talking about Michigan

as one of the teams, as one of those teams. That's what they're saying right now about Michigan Women's Basketball, joining us to talk about their opening two games and looking ahead to the Sweet 16 matchup with Louisville, Michigan Women's Basketball coach, Kim Barzorico. Kim, good morning. How are you? Good morning, Sam. Good morning, Ira. I'm doing well. Thank you. You're making me blush over here, Sam. No, it's legit. I mean, everywhere you turn, Michigan is one of those teams. Michigan has some of the best players in this tournament. You know, we were talking earlier this morning, and on a given night, it doesn't matter who you play. Michigan could have the best player on the floor that night, which is, you can say that

about this team, Kim, which is amazing, an amazing, amazing feeling. But you still got to go out and

play the games, right? And so you worry about just sports in general. If your team,

when they come out and they're heavily favored, are they going to come out and click on all

cylinders? Boy, that answer, that question was answered in a hurry against Holy Cross.

But before we, wait, shout out to your pickleball crew. Did you play this morning, too? Yes, I did. Now they're like, they're friends, listen, everyone listen. So I tell them, I'll make sure if they don't, if they don't mention you, we'll go back. Don't worry, yes. I had to get my exercise in this morning, yes.

Hey, look, they're part of the show now.

I need to come out.

They are.

They are part of the show.

They are.

I need to come out and watch you play now.

We're going to do a morning show on a Tuesday morning one after basketball season from the pickleball court.
