Yes indeed folks, Our longtime captain is making a return to the great state of MICHIGAN to watch our beloved Wolverines beat down lil brother. Maybe Novak being there can help MICH to once again win at the Breslin center?
Hoping that another...

Money quote
Asked what it would take to go into East Lansing on Tuesday and leave with a victory, Michigan junior Tim Hardaway Jr. kept it simple.
"I think it takes the heart of a Zack Novak," he said, referring to the Wolverines' former three-year captain.

"I think it takes the heart of a Zack Novak,"
The shooting ability of a Glen Rice wouldn't hurt.
Glen Rice shooting Zack
Glen Rice shooting Zack Novak's heart from three point range. Guaranteed win.
Wrong
Novack's heart is too big to fit through the hoop.

You could use some of his
You could use some of his grit to sand it down though.

Zack is one of my favorite wolverines - Hope his presence will inspire us to a key win at Breslin.
Michigan needs all the Novak they can get for tonight
I'm glad to see this.

And watch how poorly those asshole Spartan fans react to his presence. Dude deserves better, but then again, it's MSU.
I love Novak! Part of me is
I love Novak! Part of me is sad we won't really have guys like him in the near future- since part of what makes him great was being unherladed (and part is pleased because it means lots of talent). It still amazes me that we split the championship last year. The talent this year compared to last is not particularly close- yet last years team was so special- not sure we will ever have another guy quite look Novak again... Glad he will be in attendance though- and it's cool to see the THJR shoutout!
The more surprising news (to
The more surprising news (to me) information from the linked article . . . Travis Conlan is Michigan's director of basketball operations? Really? Our inexplicable struggles from the foul line are starting to make more sense . . .
So you're saying
He's booking charters that make them more likely to miss free throws? Or is it the hotels he books that do that?
Or I'm just making an
Or I'm just making an innocent joke about Conlan's surprising difficulties at the free throw line during his time as a player, maybe that's it.

I have never been more offended in all my life!
Good day to you, sir! Good. Day. Harrumph!
Why
"Surprising?"
I don't know, I found it
I don't know, I found it surprising when our point guard, who was an otherwise skilled player, shot 31% from the line his freshman year. That's the kind of thing that's less surprising when its a power forward or center who makes it in basketball mainly due to size, but you don't typically see such struggles at the point guard position.
Why hasn't this been posted yet?
they better do something
Living in the area, there is quite the intensity up here. A "trailer" is making the rounds up here and Sparty as usual is beginning to chirp:
if you want to look at it, go to lsj.com under "get pumped up with this trailer." I'm not sharing it on here.
Is it wrong
that I often think of Kovacs and Novak as instances of the same grit prototype?

the names line up too well . . . this cannot be a coincidence
Big gulps huh? Alright! Well, see ya later.

This has nothing to do with Michigan football.
Awesome.

All in for some manball.
Sorry to go way OT
I can't start a thread but I seem to remember hearing that John Hoke was going to be fired from the Chicago Bears. Did that happen, and if so, any word on where he's working or if his brother is looking to hire him?
Google is your friend.
A simple search of John Hoke football coach yields this result on the first page:

And for those too lazy to read the link
and for those who Google and find the post above only to start an internet storm saying that J. Hoke was fired, he was not. Flattering quote from the linked article:
Hoke, entering his 5th season in Chicago, was believed to be in the running for the defensive coordinators position before they hired Mel Tucker. The organization must feel very highly of Hoke, as they blocked him from interviewing with the Vikings last year for their defensive coordinator position.
Do you think...
That Kalin Lucas and Darius Morris will sit next to each other if they attended? I rewatched the get the f**k off my court video today. Love it, Go Blue!

My favorite Michigan basketball player since jimmy king
