Welcome back to the Michigan Insider here on the Big 1050 WTCA online at the big 1050.com.

Sam is on family assignment. He'll be back in the air chair next week.

Thank my guy Miz for joining me here throughout the course of the week.

In the meantime, it's the 9 o'clock hour on a Tuesday, which means it is time for our friend Eric Edelson down in the sunshine state.

I hope it's sunnier where you are, EA.

It just started pouring here like five minutes ago. It's one of those kind of days in southeastern Michigan here in August as we get ready for football. Hopefully it's nice where you are.

So I was curious about your reaction to the NCAA punishment.

And then we'll get your reaction to the reaction of the NCAA punishment.
