This is Inside Michigan Basketball.

Here are your hosts, National Champion Terry Mills, and the voice of Michigan basketball,

Brian Bush.

Final edition of Inside Michigan Basketball, this calendar, year in front of a great crowd here at the

pretzel bell in downtown Ann Arbor, as we will talk with Michigan Associate Head Coach on the

men's side, Phil Martelli, and the head coach of Michigan women's basketball. Kim Barnes-Aricco

coming up with the national champ Terry Mills. I'm Brian Bush. Coach Martelli is here, and a lot of people

come to you for wise advice. What do you tell the young student athletes when they say, coach,

it's finals week. Help me. Where you've been?

Too many young people think that asking for help in any form is a weakness and actually it's a strength

relationship trying to get help from somebody that you have no relationship

with whether it's a teaching assistant a tutor tutor, asking them to change their schedule.

But there's no miracles.

you better have practiced because the exam is a game.
