And we are back, folks, here on the Michigan Insider on the Big 1050WTCA, online at the big 1050.com, this glorious morning after Michigan men's and women's team, Michigan's men's and women's teams went up to East Lansing and dispatched of the Spartans on the men's side.

It was the second top 10 victory of the week.

I mean, you talk about answering the bell.

And then to add sweetness to those moments,

the tantrum Tom's tears.

You can't beat it, Mr. Wide Trop.

Can I get the drop one more time? Get the drop one more time. I guess. That's right. Is that really an answer? You asked for it, and then my answer is just, I guess you can get it? I don't know. How does that work? Because you asked for it, and then... I guess. Yeah, man. You got to love it.

I know our next guest, he came home.

He now works for M Live.

He's going to join us in the 9 o'clock hour to talk all things.

Michigan, Sam, Jane, from M Live.

Sam, good morning.

How are you?

Doing good, man. Better than Tom is, though, after Friday night Live. Sam, good morning. How are you?

Doing good, man. Better than Tomizzo after Friday night, I can say that for sure.

And it was his birthday.

You know. Yeah, man. That's tough.

You know, it's interesting. I mean, coaches who have some tenure, they have, they form such a, such a relationship with the media to where you start to see the media kind of take its cues, kind of take narratives at times

from that coach or that player who maybe establishes that kind of presence.

Tom Izzo has had the media up there calling Michigan's roster or like a roster of mercenaries.

You can listen to Dusty.

I don't know if you heard it this morning, but that seemed like to me it made it that much sweeter for him.
