MGoRadio 1.6: Jug Week and Incoming Basketball
1 hour 57 minutes
[Bryan Fuller]
A big thanks to our sponsors. The show is presented by UGP & Moe's and frankly would not be happening without them; Rishi and company have been on board here from almost the beginning. Shopping with them helps us and supports good dudes. Check out 100years.moe for the rich history of Michigan's oldest apparel store.
Our other sponsors are also key in the expanding empire: thanks to Homesure Lending, Ann Arbor Elder Law, Liz Crowe, Tailgaterconcierge.com, the Residence Inn Ann Arbor Downtown, the University of Michigan Alumni Association, and Draft Kings.
Basketball Previewin'
Well, first some Lions needling directed at Ace since moments before the show they elevated Jim Bob Cooter to offensive coordinator. Then we talk about what should be Beilein's deepest team at Michigan.
It's Jug Week
It's Christmas for Greg Dooley of MVictors, so we have him on the show to talk Jug history. We also bring in Brian MacDonald of Rivalry Trophy, a company that does replicas of the Jug (and other lesser Big Ten trophies) from full to ornament-size.
Gimmicky Top Five: How To Be A Contendah
Ace and I list our top five things we want to see out of the basketball team if they're going to be a national contender. Also we actually talk about the center position in this segment. I get in a Jamie Smalligan callback what.
John Gasaway of ESPN
We talk the state of the league with the artist formerly known as Big Ten Wonk. Gasaway sees a strong league somewhat off its torrid recent pace, one without a true behemoth. He seems higher on Wisconsin than anyone except Kenpom's algorithm, which he has beef with because it is also his brain.
Catch us Mondays 5-7 on 1050 WTKA.

After last season ended I thought this, but hearing from Brian and Ace cements that this team is freaking DEEP. Going to be a fun season, waves of very solid players will be thrown at the opponent. I am pumped
Like most JB seasons, I think we drop 1 game to a lesser oppoenent at the beginning but it starts to gel over the season.
