The Ace Pod 3.4: Big Man Comment Count

Ace November 26th, 2020 at 7:58 AM

This episode, as always, is brought to you by the law offices of E. Jason Blankenship, who may be socially distanced from the courthouse but is still taking on clients. You can find his new website here.

You can follow Connor on Twitter and subscribe to his newsletter, A Lonely Impulse of Delight, that includes literary analysis of Calvin & Hobbes and, blissfully, nothing about Michigan athletics. Dan is not a writer but he is @ThiccStauskas on Twitter. If you’d like to hear more, the two co-host the newly titled Yet Another Michigan Football Podcast.

[Writeup after the jump]

SEGMENT ONE: BOWLING GREEN INSTA-REACT

Alex Cook joins the pod to discuss Michigan’s season-opening win over Bowling Green. Three newcomers had particularly big performances. We think the Chaundee Brown shooting is (somewhat) sustainable. Center depth is good. Depth everywhere is good.

SEGMENT TWO: POST-BG HOOPS MAILBAG

Alex sticks around to help answer your basketball questions, most of which have something to do with Hunter Dickinson. Also: how the game impacted our outlook for the season, how to divide the minutes in the frontcourt, potential overreactions to game one, and the physics of Terrance Williams.

SEGMENT THREE: BIG TEN FOOTBALL PICKS

Recorded before the OSU-Illinois game got thrown into serious question. Connor makes a sicko under pick so Ace doesn’t have to do so.

MUSIC:

  • “Big Man”—Antibalas
  • “Feelin’ Alright”—Ohio Players

I might fight you about that but we’ll save it for after the podcast.
