MGoPodcast 10.20: Dolan & DeHooleeus Comment Count

Seth February 3rd, 2019 at 11:26 AM

This show is presented by UGP & The Bo Store, and if it wasn’t for Rishi and Ryan nobody would get our jokes. Our other sponsors are also key to all of this: HomeSure Lending, Peak Wealth Management, Ann Arbor Elder Law, the Residence Inn Ann Arbor Downtown, the University of Michigan Alumni Association, Michigan Law Grad, Human Element, and Lantana Hummus

--------------------------------------------

1. Iowa

starts at 00:58

We cede Brian 5 minutes to talk about autobenching and he uses most of it to talk about the ref show. How do you attack a zone with this team, because if you put Iggy in the middle of it you don't have enough shooters. Ready for Castleton to come in when there's a post who's 6'11".

2. Ohio State

starts at 25:43

X's big night is on a higher level than a normal triple-double because there were also no turnovers and a block on Kaleb Wesson that made the center's mom lose her shit. We come up with parenting advice for Mama Wesson, who is certainly lying about getting spat on and will have a hard argument with physics to explain why getting hit by a foam light hurt. Simpson is a cross between Isaiah Thomas (not THAT Isiah) and a center.

3. Indiana

starts at 44:46

They were angry in Bloomington. Whoever drafts Langford their rival should draft Matthews.

Big Ten: The Tourney Situation, wsg Alex Cook

starts at 56:32

We recorded the IU part before last night obviously. Nebraska is scuffling, Palmer is disappointing. Iowa is in. Grad transfers in the Big Ten this year aren't getting much time on the floor. Purdue has made it past the toughest part of their schedule, have an equal chance to win the Big Ten despite the beginning of the season. Michigan-MSU is still the marquee.

I feel it's unfair that Boudreaux looks like a 60-year-old Frenchman

Not sure who reads the comments on the PodCast posts, but thought I'd respond to a few things discussed:

  • Agree on the total ref-show.  The fact that Michigan fouls less than 95% of teams in the country and just happened to have half their team in foul trouble shows just what an outlier this was.  (And that's not to say it was one-sided, it was just bad officiating.)
  • I wanted to see them bring Teske back for a couple minutes when things got out of hand late in the first just to see what he could do in the middle of the zone.  With him and Livers struggling to stay on the court they looked lost against the zone.
  • I know there's a cry for Castleton or DDJ or even Nunez to play right now but we also have to remember both sides of the ball.  Part of the problem with the bench was their lack of scoring but the other problem was messed up switches on D.  
  • I guess Castleton can't hurt because Johns still looks lost and Davis doesn't seem to have the trust of his teammates on offense.  
  • Eli Brooks is surprisingly good on D.....and surprisingly bad on O.  
  • One of the frustrating things about this team is that no one passes the ball well except Z.  The difference between Poole and the guys he was compared to before the season (Stauskas, Levert) is that those guy had solid assist numbers.  Poole, Matthews, Iggy, Livers....none of them set up teammates very well.  Maybe that's by design to some extent?
