Welcome on into the Wolverine.com podcast. Clayton Safie here with Anthony Broome. We are at

Chrysler Center, the home of the Michigan Wolverines basketball team. This is actually a mural

behind us, but we're in the concourse at Chrysler Center. We're looking at the big sign that says

the house that Kazi built. Anthony is great to be here on Michigan basketball media day,

where we got to talk to Dusty May, the assistant coaches, every single player in the program that we wanted to. It was like a, it's like a fun factory of basketball. It was an all-you-can-eat buffet of basketball coverage here at Chrysler in a heck of a day. It was a cacophony of basketball in the house that

cassey built um yeah good day productive day it's one of those days where you talk to so many

people where it's not gonna you're not going to be able to fully absorb it to we're
