Oh man this sucks. My me of…

Oh man this sucks. He was one of the few Michigan athletes I’d met. He reached out via LinkedIn many years ago when he was getting into tech and we connected and talked a couple of times.  Smart guy. RIP.

Yep, feeling the same. Glad we had the year we had, but not loving the direction of college sports in general and I definitely feel a lot of the allure dissipating.

Some schools are much worse. A buddy actually got really into this whole grade inflation stuff - he was reading how degrees at many schools have not given a grade below an A- in like 5 years

Most grades at schools have become bullshit, this is one example and by far not the worse

Yep, I tried using FB marketplace and it sucked. Scams. Finally some random dude shows up and then offers 10% of what I have the item listed for. Soooo much wasted time.

Congrats. Are they going to comp your move? If so get a relocation company, especially if you need help finding schools for kids. I am also moving and looking at AMS Bekins and Shift Moving.

 

Also if you are moving from SF and need to sell/donate stuff check out remoovit.com.

Please help me understand…

Please help me understand something. Why does a player like Hunter who is a starter and a star here, assuming he is getting a bunch of NIL, leave? I just don’t feel a connection with these teams any more. Besides the 1 and dones, and then the player you are attached to and is the face of the program leaves for another school it just feels like not a program (and this is true for all basketball programs, not just Michigan).

We started with SVB but moved several years ago. Many VCs had a requirement that the $ be deposited at SVB. They also offered great debt products. Very flexible and good customer support. It is sad, they were a great bank that helped a lot of startups when other banks would not.

It has been an insane couple…

It has been an insane couple of days in tech land. Yesterday VCs started emailing us to move money from SVB if we had it there, Rippling had issues with payroll. Hopefully they find a white knight during the weekend

https://www.cdc.gov/stroke/signs_symptoms.htm

 

What are the signs of stroke in men and women?

  • Sudden numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body.
  • Sudden confusion, trouble speaking, or difficulty understanding speech.
  • Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes.
  • Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance, or lack of coordination.
  • Sudden severe headache with no known cause.

The stroke treatments that work best are available only if the stroke is recognized and diagnosed within 3 hours of the first symptoms. Stroke patients may not be eligible for these if they don’t arrive at the hospital in time.

If you think someone may be having a stroke, act F.A.S.T. and do the following test:

F—Face: Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?

A—Arms: Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward?

S—Speech: Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is the speech slurred or strange?

T—Time: If you see any of these signs, call 9-1-1 right away.

Note the time when any symptoms first appear. This information helps health care providers determine the best treatment for each person.

Do not drive to the hospital or let someone else drive you. Call 9-1-1 for an ambulance so that medical personnel can begin life-saving treatment on the way to the emergency room.

I may need to take my tin…

I may need to take my tin foil hat off, but I found the timing of the release to be a bit odd.  Most assumed we would win last weekend and we would be preparing this week to play Georgia...what a better way to distract the team from training than to release allegations that same week.

This does make sense, it…

This does make sense, it seems like most of the ultra-wealthy Michigan donors tend to donate to non-athletic causes (i.e. saw this $50M donation a few days ago) and that may not be the case at other schools where those donors may be more inclined to donate to athletics (Ross has done some to athletics but I believe more to b-school/etc). And it does seem that the impact to NIL funds comes from a few very large donations rather than thousands of small donations.

Top 10 donors to UM (as of 2017)

Top donations in 2022 - none of them to athletics
