Key Questions Heading into Michigan vs. Michigan State Today

Brendan Brody & Alex Moscoso — Sat, 25 Jan 2014 17:01:03 +0000

Well, this is it. The final two undefeated teams in conference play will go head-to-head tonight in East Lansing. The Spartans will have the advantage of playing in the raucous Breslin Center, but they’ll be shorthanded since both Adreian Payne and Branden Dawson are expected to miss the game. Michigan, on the other hand, doesn’t have Mitch McGary to man the post, but Nik Stauskus has been red hot offensively and the team appear to have moved on from its early season troubles. Two of our Big Ten microsite writers, Brendan Brody and Alex Moscoso, tackle the big questions headed [...]

Mitch McGary Out Indefinitely and What It Means For Michigan

Alex Moscoso (@AlexPMoscoso) — Sat, 28 Dec 2013 19:10:50 +0000

Some bad news came out of Ann Arbor on Friday night. Sophomore big man Mitch McGary has elected to have surgery on his lower back and is out indefinitely for the Wolverines.

Apparently, the McGary family decided collectively over the holidays that, in [...]

Big Ten M5: 10.09.12 Edition

Deepak Jayanti — Tue, 09 Oct 2012 13:01:02 +0000

The preseason accolades continue to flow in for the Indiana Hoosiers. Sophomore forward Cody Zeller was selected to the pre-season All-American team by CBSSports.com and was also selected as their player of the year. Zeller’s selection should come as no surprise but he is accompanied by a few other talented teammates who are just as important if Indiana hopes to make a run at the title — freshman Kevin (Yogi) Ferrell, senior guard Christian Watford and junior wing Victor Oladipo. Ferrell will need to share point guard duties with senior guard Jordan Hulls and Oladipo needs to assert himself as the [...]
