I use my YTTV login as my service provider in the FoxSports app to get the 4K stream. Doing it this way you don't need the YTTV 4K upgraded subscription. You might be able to do the same with Hulu+ login. 

I'll add that the downside going this route is that there isn't DVR in the FoxSports app.

On Android you can spoof your location by enabling developer options and downloading a GPS spoofing app. See instructions here. If you're in the US I believe the location spoofing alone will work. It has been a while, but I think when out of the country I had to login to a VPN with a US server then turn on location spoofing to get YTTV to work. 

Brian Snow, who does the…

Brian Snow, who does the rankings for 247, essentially came out and said he can't rank an old school style center as a 5-star. Here is a snippet from a thread back at the end of March:

"As for Hunter, let me preface this by saying we haven't even had preliminary discussions yet, but I personally would be surprised if he is a five-star. I will be totally honest and say I won't advocate for it, but that is a discussion Evan and I will have, and if he pushes hard, maybe it happens.

My theory is this. I have told our football guys this, I think they are insane for ranking a running back, ANY RUNNING BACK, as a five-star prospect. Running back is the most replaceable position on the football field, and calling any RB a five-star to me, is insanity. I feel the same way about an old school air craft carrier type center like Hunter. With the way the game has changed, making it harder and harder to play those guys, and limiting their effectiveness the higher up you go in the game of basketball, I just can't advocate for one of them to be a five-star."

Here is the thread with the discussion:

I use the Chase product line for most my spending (when not needing to meet a new sign up bonus) which works well when paired with the Sapphire Reserve.

  • Sapphire Reserve: 3% on travel and dining
  • Freedom: 5% on rotating categories
  • Freedom Unlimited: 1.5% on every purchase
  • Chase Ink Cash (Business Card): 2% on gas and 5% on cable/internet

The Sapphire Reserve gives a 1.5x multiplier when redeeming for travel and you can transfer points between cards.  With this stack the lowest you would ever see is 2.25% cash back (when redeemed for travel).

WIth the way the team is playing right now, I like our chances.

That's a good point and something to think about. That's a good point and something to think about. They've been adding channels so maybe it's possible they will offer those by March? If not, I can just cancel for a few months (since they are all month to month) and purchase another streaming service where I can get all of the March Madness awesomeness.
I 2nd YouTubeTV I've been using YouTubeTV this season and so far so good. The streaming devices are a bit limited but I already had a few Chromecast on hand so that wasn't an issue. I believe they are still giving away a free one too when you make your 1st payment. Also, your YouTubeTV account gives you login credentials for apps like WatchESPN. I've been using my phone to cast 2 streams at once; one from WatchESPN app and one from YouTubeTV app. Overall, I've been very happy with it so far.

I agree that the trajectory

I agree that the trajectory of the program doesn't look all that great right now. However, I disagree with your comparison comment. If we actually look at the facts, then Michigan basketball has made the tournament 17/30 times in the last 30 years for 56.66 percent (64-team field started in 1985). Beilein has made the tournament 5/9 in his time at Michigan for 55.55 percent. It looks like he is hitting the historical benchmark for tournament appearances.  

Mangum only played 1 quarter

Mangum only played 1 quarter vs. Nebraska, so he had 11 rollouts in 5 quarters going into the UCLA game. You could say this is 2.2 rollouts to his right per quarter, which equals 8.8 per game, but I don't think this is the best way to look at it. Looking at it on a percent of passes he rolls to his right, he had 11 rollouts on 39 attempts before the UCLA game. With 47 attempts vs UCLA, one would expect roughly 13 rollouts to his right (11/39*47). The numbers can be manipulated to say UCLA held him to 9 less than expected, which I think would be pretty good. 

There were some rumblings

There were some rumblings before the Utah game (by Scout insider) that Peppers was going to take some snaps at QB in some type of wildcat formation. Obviously that didn't happen but interesting nonetheless.

Allen Trieu is contradicting this and saying he has confirmed that Harris did not tear his hamstring.  I guess we just wait and see.
