We are back, folks here on the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050 WTCA online at the big 1050.com, Sam Webb.

Mr. Iroh and travel on the other side and joining us as he does every single thing to talk about all the big topics in the world of sports is our great friend.

Ann Arbor native, Eric Adelson.

Yeah, good morning.

How are you? Good morning good morning. How are you?

Good morning, Sam.

How are you?

Doing great, man.

You know, surprisingly, I was not any worse for the where after going to D.C.

to see Michigan ultimately fall in that game.

But I was just struck by what an awesome environment it was,

how great it was to see these two teams even take this game.

And I wasn't that bothered by the loss.

I certainly wanted to see Michigan win, but it didn't reveal anything about this team that I'm concerned about.

I'm curious your takeaways from the Michigan duke.

Well, to your point, Sam, I mean, it's pretty, I guess notable is the word I would say,

that, you know, we're in the NIL era. Players are paid.

There's a transfer portal.

The players that Michigan, that Michigan fans are cheering for, for the most part,

won't have their last year.

And yet it's more watchable and exciting than ever.

And then the rivalry is still there.
