Wolverine Wednesday: Jalen Wilson to Kansas

Well it seems that Michigan Basketball did have a causality in Coach B heading to the Cavs.  Jalen Wilson quickly asked to be let out of his LOI and today committed to Kansas.

It was reported that Juwan tried to get Jalen back but it seems he had his mind set on going to Kansas or UNC and picked the Jayhawks.  We wish him good luck at this new school.   That pretty much leaves Franz Wagner or a mystery player or players to fill the holes in the in class that was left by the 3 players in the draft.  Michigan might have a light roster next year.

Michigan is a baseball school now anyway :-) !

• Speaking of Coach B he has hired University of California, Berkeley woman’s head coach Lindsay Gottlieb as an assistant coach. 

• Safety Jordan Morant is taking an official to Penn State this week

• 4 Star Maryland OL Aaryn Parks has de-committed from PSU

Michigan Tuesday: Oliver to Iowa

Michigan WR Oliver Martin in the last few weeks was out, was back in, and then out.  Now he is heading to Iowa to play for the Hawkeyes.  That was the presumed destination and it ended up being correct.  It's a bit strange for him to transfer to a place that still has Michigan on the schedule, but times are a changing and we wish him good luck.

Oliver is expected to sit out this season and have 3 more to play for the Hawkeyes.

• Instate OT Grant Toutant flipped from Penn State to Ohio State, it seems the Wolverines had little to no interest in the large OT. 

• CWS Michigan vs. TT at 2:00 on Saturday. 

• Here is a glimpse of Juwan's July:  "(July) is going to be a very busy month for us," Howard said. "Me and my staff will be out (on the road recruiting). In LA, the Adidas Gauntlet tournament. We'll be out there in Anaheim watching that. There's the Peach Jam, Nike is holding a big event that they've put on for many years. A lot of talented ball players go out there and compete in that. The Peach Jam is also located in Augusta, Georgia, let me not forget to say that. There's another event held in Atlanta, and we've got pretty lucky with that one. There's a tournament that Under Armour is hosting... It's going to be a very busy time."

Frederick’s Music & Arts creates harmony across the country

For nearly 70 years, Frederick-based Music & Arts has taken pride in being the “neighborhood choice for music.” And with 17 locations in Maryland alone – from Calvert County to Washington County – you’ve probably seen or visited one of its retail locations throughout the state.

Michigan Monday: A Commit and a Trip to The CWS!

Congratulations to the Michigan's Baseball team for beating UCLA 4-2 last night and punching their ticket to the CWS for the first time in 35 years!  The Wolverines now get to face Texas Tech, who ironically knocked the basketball team out in the Sweet 16.   Go Blue and Good Luck in Omaha!

Michigan Football also received a commitment from a 3 star TE out of Virginia Matt Hibner.   Matt is a bit under the radar as he is ranked the 1012 player and #42 TE in the nation to 24/7.   The Michigan coaches saw something they liked and offered him a couple of weeks ago.   Matt doesn't lack in size and is 6'4 and 230 pounds.

His offer list was full of academic schools like: Harvard, Brown, Army, Air Force, Colombia, Dartmouth, Brown, Cornell, Colombia. Arizona State, Georgia Tech, NC State, Vandy, VT, Pitt, Rutgers, Princeton, etc.

Let's put out the Welcome Matt!

• In terrible news, it seems Charles Matthews has torn his ACL during a workout with the Boston Celtics and won't be able to participate in the NBA Season.   This is awful news, weeks before the draft where he was projected as the 60th player taken.  I don't know if he can now, but he should consider coming back to U of M and entering the draft next year.  He could rehab maybe play in February?

For Sport Squad, table tennis is no mere game

Professional leagues. Devoted fans. Product endorsements. Millions of dollars in career earnings. Championships that draw more viewers than the Super Bowl. For much of the world, that’s table tennis. 

But here in the United States, the game is usually reduced to mere ping pong—a casual game played in basements and garages. But Richard Lee, president of the Rockville-based Sport Squad, wants to change that.
