It would be so awesome to host early-round NCAA tourney games at Crisler.

That's pretty much guaranteed unless they lose to some bad teams. Even if they end 1-6 (beat Illinois, lose to the six competitive teams on their schedule) they're probably a top four seed.

Let's hope that six loses does not happen!
February 1st, 2022 at 3:20 PM ^
What a season. Let's hope they can finish strong and win it all!
February 1st, 2022 at 3:20 PM ^
#1 in our hearts.

Wow, did you just upvote yourself 21 times between 12:29 and 12:49 this afternoon?

He ran out of gas! He got a flat tire! He didn't have any change for cab fare! He lost his tux at the cleaners! He locked his keys in the car! An old friend came in from out of town! Someone stole his car! There was an earthquake! A terrible flood! Locusts! IT WASN'T HIS FAULT, HE SWEARS TO GAWD!

I'm beginning to see distinct similarities when comparing the posts and methodology of 'Kolesar99' and 'bfeeavveerr'. Not quite yet to where I am making that a conclusion, but leaning towards it.
[edit @4:15 pm: after digging deeper I don't think one is a burner account for the other. But I did notice the beav upvoted himself a couple more times in the last few minutes, including in the Haskins thread]

Can you check the IP addresses for the accounts?
February 1st, 2022 at 5:01 PM ^
No, not yet.
I wish we had that capability already, but we do have the ability to look at a few other things on our "mod buttons" page that often make it easy to connect the dots.
We've weeded out numerous ne'er-do-wells that way, especially among new accounts, some of whom simultaneously create 2 or more new accounts or a 2nd account within hours.
'Maizen', for instance, has been easy to sniff out.

i think you can go blind from doing that. or get warts.
February 1st, 2022 at 3:57 PM ^
Dontcha know those things are as valuable as S&H Green Stamps? Gotta get his free console TV.

The women wolverines deserve every bit of this attention. Naz is on the level of a Stevie Y, Barry, or Alan Tram type of quiet leader who excels at a high clip without calling out attention to self. So blessed to have her.
You can add Romero in softball to that list (When she was here). If you’re a Detroit/UofM fan like me, we’ve had a blessed combination of star/character type of leaders…including the GOAT if you follow former Wolverines as well. :)

The past two seasons, Naz has brought me into M WBB fandom. She's a tremendous athlete, understands the low post exceptionally well, great pivot moves, long, cerebral player, and a great interview. Her team does an amazing job feeding her the rock in the low post into windows which seem impossible. Only downside is when M faces a fierce defensive team, like Indiana yesterday, many of those windows close very fast and there are lots of turnovers. Still, they board well at all positions, Kiser, Rauch, Phelia (who's a star in the making) etc., and never give up.
This team is special. If you haven't checked them out, please do and lend support.

Phelia makes me feel like this train ride may continue for years to come. Girl has ‘it’.
February 1st, 2022 at 4:12 PM ^
Would add Nolan to the list of players who board well for their position (also sure doesn’t hurt that she can splash from downtown too).
February 1st, 2022 at 5:36 PM ^
Nolan is like if Novak got to actually play guard.
February 1st, 2022 at 6:21 PM ^
Hate how much I love this post ?
February 1st, 2022 at 5:37 PM ^
Naz's hands are also incredible.
February 1st, 2022 at 3:50 PM ^
So great to watch. Go Blue!

ESPN's projected bracket has what seems like a pretty easy path to the Elite Eight...and South Carolina. We would like to avoid that region. Other goal is to avoid a fully operational/healthy UConn as our 3.
