Things discussed:
- Rhonda Faehn: Probably was not a bad hire, made it impossible to keep her by Warde's first big oops. Was at USAG for 30 days when she got a report, had no idea yet her organization was compromised. Probably did everything she should have, testified to Congress when MSU's president et al. had to be subpoened and took the fifth. Team was behind the hire.
- That said, if Michigan wanted this they had to make a big deal about their process and get everyone to sign off. Faehn got railroaded.
- Mid-30s Harbaugh assistants. Gattis was a surprise. Gonna be a good recruiter, is he really getting the keys to the offense? Is Michigan really going to be speed in space?
- Sam: Pep isn't Drevno—he's looking around but not being pushed out. If Pep doesn't get another job, don't know what to do with McDaniels.
- Campanelli: BC insiders agree: he's a Dude.
- Nua: Has a place to stay in Hawaii.
- Hoops: NW'ern put Pete Nance on X to temp some threes, X took that personally. Teske did too, convincing Dererk Pardon he could hit threes; Pardon cannot hit threes. Sam: "Cassius Winston's gonna bust Simpson's tail in that one…Cassius Winston is gonna go for 30 plus."
- How to play Happ: Teske's earned his shot to shut him down. Double him maybe when there's a non-shooter, but he's an expert at slugging out doubles.
- Nate Reuvers is next year's stretch five—awkward at the four but a plus blocker there.
