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

In the 9 o'clock hour, you know what they're all about.

The MGO blog roundtable, the crew comes in and we discuss all things maize and blue.

And these days, those things typically are about Michigan basketball, who just inked another impressive

hall between their portal editions and you look at their recruiting additions. The

Wolverines are poised to be right back in the National Championship Hunt, joining me as they do every single week to talk about it all.

My boys from MGO blog, starting with the man and started it all at the blog.

Brian Cook. Brian, good morning. How are you?

Good. I'm well. And we have Seth Fisher's right-hand man. Seth, how are you?

I'm good. I want to congratulate everybody whose faces are darker now that we got some sun outside here in Michigan.

I hear that, man. Get outside. Stop raining so we can cut the grass. And then Craig Ross, how are you?

I'm doing fine. Happy to be here. Happy to be talking about basketball. And it's been a fabulous March.

Yeah, man.

You know, you just figure, or I just can't take it for granted,

but this guy talking about Dusty May has a formula that he's able to weather the

portal storms and come out ahead. And that's what it appears to be the case

again so now that we've had a longer look at the guys that they have that they're bringing into

the folk brian i'm curious your your overall impressions of this year's portal hall well with uh reed it's a little hard to get a good grasp on

on what he's going to be like when he's healthy or if he's healthy this year but i did watch

a chunk of an lSU game where he was had a prominent role i like him i like his size he's

switchable he he is kind of that Merez Johnson type guy.

He's a little bit longer and obviously not as proven as Merez was even after coming
