Elliot Cadeau är första svensk på herrsidan att vinna hela collegebasketen i USA. Inte nog med det, han blev också hela turneringens MVP, och hyllades av USA:s tidigare president Barack Obama bara timmar senare. Elliot Cadeau har varit en av Sveriges största baskettalanger i flera år, men för många här hemma känns det ändå som att han dykt upp från ingenstans. Så hur bra är han egentligen? Hur har så många missat honom? Och hur bra kan han bli? Programledare och producent: Demir Lilja Medverkande: Malin Wahlberg Kontakt: podcast@aftonbladet.se Ansvarig utgivare: Lotta Folcker

In the latest episode of The Michigan Basketball Insider, Sam Webb and Tim McCormick preview the national championship game between Michigan and Connecticut. Tim begins by highlighting Michigan's dominant interior defense and improved three-point shooting in its win over Arizona. He praises Aday Mara for significantly raising his draft stock, potentially into the lottery, and credits Elliot Cadeau's defense as a key factor in the victory. Tim also notes Trey McKenney's shooting has put the freshman on NBA draft boards. The discussion then shifts to the upcoming matchup with UConn, focusing on Danny Hurley's tactical strengths, Tarris Reed's development, and Alex Karaban's versatility. They address Yaxel Lendeborg's knee and ankle injuries, and discuss strategies to protect him defensively, as well as the possible impact of Solo Ball's foot injury for UConn. Although both expect a tougher contest than against Arizona, they predict a close Michigan victory.

Michigan defeated Arizona 91-73, led by Aday Mara's dominant performance, who posted 26 points and nine rebounds. After the game, The Michigan Insider's Sam Webb and Josh Newkirk dissected the beatdown, emphasizing Michigan's dominance both inside and outside the arc, without Yaxel Lendeborg for much of the game due to injury. Its shooting prowess proved a major separator, as the Wolverines hit 12 threes to Arizona's six. Furthermore, Elliot Cadeau and Trey McKenney served as the perimeter engines, with Cadeau recording 10 assists and McKenney scoring 16 points off the bench on 6/9 shooting and 4/6 from three. Despite Lendeborg's injury, Michigan is now favored to win the national championship against UConn. However, we detail why the Huskies, known for their strong defense and balanced scoring, are likely to be a more formidable foe than Arizona proved to be.

Following Michigan's decisive 95-62 victory over Tennessee to reach the Final Four, The Michigan Insider's Josh Newkirk and Samuel Webb broke down the Wolverines' dominant performance.

Transfer Portal - Offense Starts at :51 The portal is closed! The only windows remaining are for a coaching change and for Indiana/Miami after the national championship game. Transfers, NIL, and contracts have been weird this cycle. Will Diego Pavia be in college until he's 45?? Thank you Davis Warren for beating Ohio State in the Funniest Game Ever. Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi is your backup QB out of Colorado State where he threw for over 7,000 yards. That's a "we don't practice f*cked" pick-up. Jadyn Davis's recruiting profile was a huge miss. Georgia Tech is a cool place for Justice Haynes, we're still not sure if Kuzdzal is returning. Taylor Tatum comes in from Oklahoma after a case of fumble-itus and several other ailments. Now he might actually have a good running backs coach. They retained Andrew Marsh - massive. The wide receiver room looks great, the only thing missing is a dedicated slot receiver but Michigan hasn't really utilized the role in a while anyways. Marlin Klein declared for the NFL draft but is he going to get drafted? The remaining tight ends and fullbacks should be good and viable options, they didn't get anyone out of the portal. JJ Buchanon doesn't count since he's being listed as a wide receiver. The offensive line is mostly retained which has star power potential. Overall the offensive line held serve besides losing Haywood, overall an A-grade. Would you give the offensive portal recruiting/retention an A all across the board? Could this become a... top ten offense? 2. Transfer Portal - Defense Starts at 41:41 Defensively is more of a mixed bag. Defensive end lost a lot of guys to graduation but only Devon Baxter to the portal. John Henry Daley is questionable based on his health, but if he's healthy you get Derrick Moore (but who actually plays more). Defensive tackle doesn't lose anyone noteworthy to the portal. You get back Trey Pierce and Enow Etta. Jonah Leaea was like a young Mo Hurst, he needs another 20 pounds. Defensive tackle has depth, just not star power, this wasn't a spectacular portal season for them either. This gets a solid B. Linebacker is the trouble spot. They lose Ernest Hausmann to eligibility/spirit quest, Cole Sullivan to Oklahoma, and Jimmy Rolder to the draft. The guys they bring in are uhhhhhh. Aisea Moa knows Jay Hill's system so he could possibly play but doesn't seem like he'll be all-Big Ten. This is a D, it's close to an F. At cornerback, you get Jyaire Hill, Zeke Berry, and Snowden. Jayden Sanders to Notre Dame stings. Let's.... talk about the allegations of sabotage and blackmail? Cornerbacks situation gets a... C+. Safety loses Brandyn Hillam and Elijah Dotson. Is Bryce Underwood the only guy to come from Belleville and last for over a year? Is Rod Moore going to play? Who knows. Chris Bracy comes in from Memphis, who comes in with a historic tale of a fabled fumble. Safety starters could be Bracy and Rod Moore, Mason Curtis to linebacker. You have six safeties? How many are going to play in a Cover-1? Defense overall gets a C, they probably didn't get better or worse. How much of the Wink disdain will have been warranted? If Daley doesn't get healthy who is going to be the star on this defense? Maybe they'll be like the offense last year - lots of potential but not quite there yet. 3. Hot Takes and Basketball vs Washington and Oregon Starts at 1:23:58 Takes hotter than Utah's athletic director on Twitter. Michigan basketball sweeps their west coast tour, they don't dominate but give a solid beating in both games to not-great teams. Michigan and Oregon were close to identical at the rim. You're starting to see the cracks in the armor of this team. Sean Stewart is an elite flopper. What did Dusty possibly say to warrant a technical? Elliot Cadeau was pretty efficient but gets too close to the face of guys on the perimeter and then gets beaten. He tries things that are just a little too ambitious too often, these things usually don't work. Indiana doesn't match up with Michigan at all, Trey Burke to get honored at the Ohio State game. It's about to get real for Nebraska. 4. Hockey vs Minnesota Starts at 1:54:54 Michigan gets an almost-sweep of Minnesota getting 5 of 6 points. It's hard to believe this is what Minnesota's hockey team looks like, they've fallen a long way. Minnesota didn't go into the portal or the CHL and just doesn't have the same talent as they used to. Even the announcers were saying "oh, don't do that!" Seven saves in one minute is pretty incredible. Michigan State is still the one team that can match up with Michigan. Michigan is probably in the best spot since the 2022 team when they were number 1. Is there anything Warde Manuel has done that makes you think Michigan hockey will be on a local television station? Four Big Ten teams are in the top 10 of NPI.
