- It all falls into line for Mater Dei in Division II boys’ final
Andy Brown scored 13 of his 18 points to lead Mater Dei to a state title win. - Academics and Athletics
The long awaited Ann Arbor news piece on academic issues in the athletic department. Does it live up to the hype? I’ll have more reaction later. - Boys basketball: With his college destination in doubt, Novak came out swinging
Novak speaks on his recruitment and almost being left with no offer. - Cassity mulls Michigan offer (Scout Premium)
Will Michigan add another guard/wing? - Big Ten teams seemed to get pretty snubbed with respect to seeding tonight. Wisconsin a 3, MSU a 5, Purdue a 6 and Indiana an 8? Maybe it’s just my BigTen bias.
Novak sounds like a good player with an even better work ethic. I really like the attitudes and skill sets of each of our respective freshmen. They aren’t highly rated but each of the three has said they are willing to do whatever it takes to be help the team win. But they’ve done more than talk, each of the press clippings I’ve read has evidence that we’ve got three hard working recruits. Nothing against Stu Douglass, but Novak and Cronin just seem like they’ve got something to prove and I could see them playing with a lot of passion.
