Welcome on to the Wolverine Basketball Show. I'm your host Clayton Safie, and we're here to recap an 84 to 70

Michigan win over Illinois and the Wolverines are outright Big 10 champions in year two under Dusty May,

17 and 1 in the conference now with two games to go on February 27th, Michigan clinches an outright Big Ten title. And there ain't nobody close to them in the standings.

Like we said, two games to go at Iowa next Thursday, home against Michigan State. A couple days later on Sunday.

There'll be a number one seed in the NCAA tournament barring something crazy.

They could be the number one overall seed.

Chris Ballas and Anthony Broom were there in Champaign here.

My co-workers at the Wolverine just caught up with them.

You're going to hear that in just a moment.

So we will get to that here in a second. But Marez Johnson Jr.

comes back to his home, his former home, his previous school, and puts up 19 and 11 on them.

A DiMorrow was spectacular. We get into all of that as well as an injury update on LJ. Case and at least a partial injury update, Dusty May wasn't able to give a ton,

but those guys talk about what they observed from the floor.

So let's hear my conversation with Anthony and Chris,

who are in Champaign at State Farm Center.

All right, Clayton Safee here with Anthony Broome and Chris Ballas,
