Ant Wright tweeted out a German flag gif in the last hour....
And another random M-hoops focused account posted googly eyes.
Coincidence? Foreshadowing big news?

Hey UM, you said a few weeks ago that after the college World Series you’d share a few football notes, some good, some not so good.
any updates?
Who is Ann Wright and why do we care about her tweeting about Germany?
/s kinda
What an awful post. Could it possibly be more cryptic and less descriptive? Doubt it.
Not sure if serious...
Ant(hony) Wright was a former UofM basketball player who has a sizable social media presence. Some feel he is connected in some way to the current basketball program, but I'm a bit skeptical.
Ant ain't always right?
UPDATE - I noticed that Ace tweeted out a few hours back a link to a new (MGo?)Podcast where he and Alex project the 2019-20 hoops team with and without a certain F. Wagner.
He did a follow up tweet that noted that he was letting folks know about it then —“just in case something happens that would render portions of the podcast useless” —
FYI name of podcast is “The Ace Pod” episode 1.5 Brian will link it from the main page eventually- (i couldn’t find that episode yet using Apple podcast app but he put a link in his tweet for those who do not want to wait.)
8 - 9 man rotation for MBB next year . Include Wagner in that rotation.
1Simpson,DeJulius
2Wagner,Brooks
3Livers,Bajema
4Johns,Livers
5Teske,Castleton
With Wagner I think you can figure out the minutes pretty easy....knowing it is still a wild ass guess.
- Simpson = 35
- Teske = 30
- Livers = 35
- Castleton = 10
That gives you 90 left. I think Wagner is good enough and able to play the 2 or 3 so he gets 30.
I think Johns and Brooks are going to get 20 each so now you have 20 left. That will probably go to some rotation minutes for DDJ and Bajema.
I think more likely:
1. Simpson, DeJulius, Brooks
2. Wagner, DeJulius, Bajema
3. Livers, Bajema, Johns
4. Johns, Livers, Wagner
5. Teske, Castleton, Davis
that’s a 9 man interchangeable rotation. Don’t see Brooks having the skill set based on his play thus far to play anything other than PG. I like their versatility 2-4. Looks a little thin at 4 though.
Franz could really be the difference maker. That lineup could do some damage.
Castleton is going to make big jump this year physically. I expect him to play key minutes.
I could also see Bajema behind Wagner at the 2. I think he might surprise some people.
Jamal Crawford said he was a stud, albeit at his camp.
Perhaps it’s a reference to summer term starting on Wednesday? Either way I think a decision should be coming soon.
The outlook for this team is so much brighter with franz so I’m really hoping for good news on this one.
if Howard reels in the big fish Franz... man what a start that would be for him
