I think it proves more about Seth Davis than anything.

You should make a Top 26 list. It’s one better, isn’t it?

A paragraph on each player. Five Wolverines make the list:

Thanks, that was interesting. Moussa content so tantalizing re a second year. Still having a hart time believing it.
Love that they are putting Diabate in the 2023 draft. I will not get my hopes, I will not get my hopes up, I will not get my hopes up… my hopes are up

Quite the quote from Jalen Suggs here.

Joins the large list of guys who claim they would have gone to _____ if not for _____ and if only ______ had happened. Easy to say in hindsight. Probably not actually true since Minnesota is garbage

Amount of belief I put into that quote: less than zero. Good for viral content, though.
Minnesota finished on a 2-14 slide at the timeframe Suggs says (near the end of his sophomore year) but if they would have just shown up to a few more games he would have committed?
This is just something kids say. I’m also not sure that the working relationship between Pitino’s Minnesota and Suggs’ AAU team was very functional if it existed at all.

I want to hate the quote but I love the quote because I’m all for dancing on the Pitino family’s graves.

Fast forward to the Sweet 16… Michigan vs. Memphis and CBS airs a feature about how Emoni would have loved to stay home but Michigan never really showed him the love

Jalen Green and Nimari Burnett were almost a package deal to Michigan! Definitely believable!

I very much appreciate that this is a sweet sixteen matchup and not a final four matchup. I really want to see the Memphis program burn with disfunction this year

Everyone seems annoyed by the Memphis thing but I think it is the sort of storyline a good college hoops season needs. I think it’ll be fun.

Being annoyed by it is very much apart of the fun.

I can’t speak for others but I am not annoyed with Memphis - I find them to be a fun villain and they also provide a level and feel of what we get with reality tv.

What did Memphis do again? Picked up a bunch of a high ranking recruits due to a likeable head coach with other former NBA players as assistants? Hmm…I’m glad my favorite team doesn’t do that! Or embraced the new NLI so these college kids can make money? Egregious.

Michigan being good obviously helped sustain everyone around here but generally I thought that last year’s hoops season was sorely missing great storylines. I think we’ll have a lot more this year.
I’m already sick of the Coach K Retirement Tour though, and it hasn’t even started.

To me it’s that Penny came in talking a huge game. He’s certainly far less humble than Juwan and has had far less success. And I have not liked Memphis dating back to the Calipari days. I’ve matured since then and just realized villains are fine but I will be rooting against them for sure but will also be watching as much as possible.
Plus the promise of FedEx paying these kids a mill isn’t great for Michigan

Maybe Hunter Dickinson would have gone to Maryland if only Turge had driven a few miles down the road to DeMatha.
