Summary
Checking in on the No. 19 Michigan basketball team, we look at some of the key topics surrounding the Wolverines’ recent double-overtime win over Purdue. We look at a potential change to the starting lineup, what the pros and cons are about Michigan’s “three-guard” lineup, why it worked against the Boilermakers and how it should be used moving forward.
We also take a look at a growing concern of opposing big men racking up points on the Wolverines in the wake of Travion Williams’ 26-point, 20-rebound effort. We discuss the pros and cons of Michigan sending help in the post for Jon Teske, and look at what the Wolverines’ strategy should be heading to Minnesota.
We also break down other key issues surrounding the team, including Michigan’s road woes and a daunting schedule ahead.

| 0:37.7 | It's been a very interesting 11 and 4. |
| 0:40.3 | Not too many teams can claim that they, well, no one else can claim they beat the number |
| 0:45.4 | one team in the country in Gonzaga. |
| 0:47.3 | But then they also suffered some losses, a couple blowout losses on the road, and then |
| 0:53.8 | nine point lost to Illinois, overtime loss to Oregon. |

| 1:08.4 | People seem to have more questions about football. |
| 1:11.9 | But this one is, what are your thoughts on David de Julius getting more minutes at the two? |
| 1:17.9 | It seems as Brooks has lost confidence and maybe seeing the first five or six minutes of a game |
| 1:23.5 | and coming in will benefit him similar to Duncan Robinson, I assume, and Isaiah Livers in years |
| 1:29.0 | past. |
