Today on Getting Unstuck Hi, I'm Jeff Ikler, host of the Cultivating Curiosity podcast. This summer, I'm periodically releasing mini-episodes of "Cultivating Curiosity." In about 10 minutes, I'll dive deeper into a key point from a previously broadcast evergreen episode. The content in these mini-episodes is designed to be readily applicable to your life or work. At some point during the summer of 2019, I was walking in our nearby forest preserve, listening to a podcast with Tim Ferriss in conversation with Seth Godin. Tim Ferriss always asks his guests during the wrap-up what they're reading that they find fascinating—books that have truly impacted them. Without hesitation, Seth Godin replied, The Art of Possibility. I thought, if Seth Godin found the book worthwhile, I had to look into it. The authors of the book are Benjamin Zander, who at the time was the Conductor of the Boston Philharmonic and served on the Faculty of the New England Conservatory in Boston. That's an important distinction, as you will hear. And Rosamund Stone Zander was a family therapist and a landscape painter. Sadly, Roz died in September 2023 in a tragic accident. The idea The book's central premise is that life is a story and we are its author. Many of the circumstances that block us from leading a deeply satisfying life are assumptions and interpretations of our own making. We can, therefore, write better ones. Supporting that idea are 12 practices, which, if followed, promise to transform our thinking and the way we walk through life. The book, then, and this is important, is not a self-improvement book that results in merely tweaking our undesirable habits or making only incremental changes. The 12 practices are powerfully disruptive. Not surprisingly, because Roz was a psychotherapist, the practices call for a completely different way of looking at the world and our behavior. I purchased the audio version of the book because the authors narrated it and Ben infused it with rich musical examples. If I had been asked to write a back cover blurb, I might have offered something very erudite like, "I was blown away by it." It sits on my bookshelf with only a few other titles that I can grab in case of disaster. At the time, I thought I had little hope of securing Ben and Roz as guests on our fledgling show, but they could not have been more gracious in their response and participation. Episode 100, which I'll link in the show notes, has become one of my top 5 downloaded episodes out of more than 400, and for good reason. I'm going to feature two of the practices in this mini-episode: One is "It's all invented," which is really the capstone practice, and Two, Giving an A. In both cases, the authors will explain the practice in an excerpt from the original interview, followed by my brief commentary. It's all invented. Here is Roz touching on "It's all invented." Everything we do or say is really embedded in an interpretation, and we don't notice that, and when slide back and forth between the interpretation and what we say is real, and most of the time we are saying that what we, how we are interpreting things is reality, and that's how you get Republicans, Democrats, and all sorts of people in conflict because they don't make that distinction, so we are saying everything that you do and talk about, aside from something that everybody agrees is just happened or is true, is a story, and if you, if everything is a story, you can retell the story, and it'll make a different life for you. Enormous power of realizing that, and then saying, "Okay, let me just take the same circumstances I've just dealt with and make up a new story about it that helps, that is enlivening to me and enlivening to you and enlivening to everybody else. This practice has always taught me that I have the power to reframe and interpret what I've seen or heard about something, whether it's external or internal to me, so that whatever it is becomes more meaningful. I don't see this as putting a glossy coat of paint on something. It's challenging me to look at an aspect of life for what can be gleaned from it. This practice definitely calls for me to pause, step back, and refrain from immediate judgment. And that's not always easy because it runs counter to how our brains seek immediate clarity. As an exercise, take a situation and see if you can look at it differently so that it is, as Roz suggests, more enlivening. Sometimes you might have to do this through gritted teeth, but remember, you are the author of the story. Give yourself an "A." OK, here is the second practice: Giving an A. We'll hear from both Ben and Roz in this excerpt. The giving of the, which was Ross's idea, came out of my class, and the reason is that the students were living under such fear of competition and failure, and so I, we came up with this idea, Ross came up with the idea, and I practiced it, which is giving the A the beginning of the year before they've done anything. This is right in the very first class, they get the grade. The condition is there to write a letter at the beginning of the year describing who they will have become by the end of the year, and that to justify this thing, and so they're describing themselves at their very best at being successful and effective and wonderful musicians and people, and that's the person I teach when I go into the class, so that there became a way of approaching all teaching or conducting, I walk into an orchestra and give everybody an a instantaneously before we've begun, and the orchestra players feel that sense of confidence, of trust, of joy, of shared love of the music, and it creates an atmosphere. Oh, and then very important, if they make a mistake, we go, how fascinating. That has to be seen. How fascinating. I encourage people to go out and try that on the golf course, because what we do is we live under such fear of failure that we become very cautious and anxious, fearful, and looking all the time to see if other people are making the mistakes, and so it's not an atmosphere of risk taking and joy, and if you create an atmosphere of risk taking and joy, then, and everybody who makes a mistake gets to say, "How fascinating, then you've got a chance to people to learn more effectively, giving something here about transformation, because if we don't give an A and hope they'll live up to it, right, you see them as an A, and that means that I, or Ben, as the teacher or therapist, or whoever's given the giving the A has to do the work themselves, that becomes the relationship of an A. It isn't just the student that we hope to help along, because they feel loved and everything, and now they, they're not afraid. It is the relationship that changes, and that is the transformation. So, teachers transformed, students transform in the process, and transformation means that you're living in a different world, you're living in a world that doesn't operate by the same physics as the world we live in. It's very hard for people to get that the A is not a judgment Giving an A is my favorite of the twelve practices because, as Roz pointed out, it carries responsibility for both the giver and the receiver. We can give anyone an A, and that calls for us to see and treat them differently because our intent is that the A becomes, to quote from the book, "a possibility for the receiver to live into." I saw immediate application in my lifelong vocation of education. The key, as the authors point out in the book, is for the receiver to "place themselves in the future, looking back, and to report on all the insights they acquired and milestones they attained during the year as if those accomplishments were already in the past. Everything must be written in the past tense. Phrases such as I hope or I intend or I will must not appear." As an exercise, give a server in a restaurant an A the minute you sit down. How might doing so impact your behavior toward them? The key point here is that you're not trying to get the server to live up to a standard you've set, but to have them look more carefully at their own behavior and how they want to conduct themselves.

(Journalists are people too, but it's their whole job to respond to everything) 9:102) There are simply too many horrors to post about all of them. 9:513) I do think we have a responsibility to lead with our values. That doesn't mean saying it constantly, or every day. 10:334) The rise of the idea that you have a responsibility to respond to every crisis has given rise to the tidal wave of performative allyship. This creates ENORMOUS pressure that is almost impossible to satisfy, so we just don't post at all.

Full Text of Readings Memorial of Saint Barnabas, Apostle Lectionary: 580/362 The Saint of the day is Saint Barnabas Saint Barnabas' Story Saint Barnabas, a Jew of Cyprus, comes as close as anyone outside the Twelve to being a full-fledged apostle. He was closely associated with Saint Paul—he introduced Paul to Peter and the other apostles—and served as a kind of mediator between the former persecutor and the still suspicious Jewish Christians. When a Christian community developed at Antioch, Barnabas was sent as the official representative of the church of Jerusalem to incorporate them into the fold. He and Paul instructed in Antioch for a year, after which they took relief contributions to Jerusalem. Later Paul and Barnabas, now clearly seen as charismatic leaders, were sent by Antioch officials to preach to the gentiles. Enormous success crowned their efforts. After a miracle at Lystra, the people wanted to offer sacrifice to them as gods—Barnabas being Zeus, and Paul, Hermes—but the two said, “We are of the same nature as you, human beings. We proclaim to you good news that you should turn from these idols to the living God” (see Acts 14:8-18). But all was not peaceful. They were expelled from one town, they had to go to Jerusalem to clear up the ever-recurring controversy about circumcision, and even the best of friends can have differences. When Paul wanted to revisit the places they had evangelized, Saint Barnabas wanted to take along his cousin John Mark, author of the Gospel, but Paul insisted that since Mark had deserted them once, he was not fit to take along now. The disagreement that followed was so sharp that Barnabas and Paul separated: Barnabas taking Mark to Cyprus, Paul taking Silas to Syria. Later they were reconciled—Paul, Barnabas and Mark. When Paul stood up to Peter for not eating with gentiles for fear of his Jewish friends, we learn that “even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy” (see Galatians 2:1-13). Reflection Saint Barnabas is spoken of simply as one who dedicated his life to the Lord. He was a man “filled with the Holy Spirit and faith. Thereby, large numbers were added to the Lord.” Even when he and Paul were expelled from Antioch in Pisidia—modern-day Turkey—they were “filled with joy and the Holy Spirit.”Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

What words would you use to describe the American healthcare system? Here are a few: Broken. In need of healing. Confusing. Centered on making money. Enormous. Stressful. But also: full of compassionate professionals. Full of potential. Our guest today would probably agree with these words. He might also add that our healthcare system is a privileged place to find God. The Jesuit priest Fr. Michael Rozier, SJ, is a scholar and professor of public health at Loyola University Chicago. He has a brand-new book out, which is titled “Growing Our Moral Imagination: Approaching Health Care with a New Faith-Based Vision.” It's published by the Johns Hopkins University Press. The book combines elements of memoir, theological reflection, storytelling and commentary on health care challenges. And perhaps the most interesting part of the volume is how in each chapter, Fr. Rozier reimagines one of Jesus' parables from the Gospels and applies it to healthcare issues today. This approach leads to chapters in the book with titles like “The Good Death of Lazarus,” “The Demons of Anxiety and Fear,” and the “Public Health Samaritan.” It's a fascinating read that host Mike Jordan Laskey can't wait to recommend to the Catholic healthcare professionals he knows. It's also a compelling read for anyone of faith who's ever interacted with the healthcare system at all, which means pretty much all of us. You'll love to hear Fr. Rozier's passion for public health and the healing ministry of Jesus throughout our wide-ranging conversation. Fr. Michael Rozier, SJ: https://www.luc.edu/parkinson/ourpeople/facultystaffprofiles/michaelroziersj.shtml “Growing Our Moral Imagination”: https://www.press.jhu.edu/books/title/54073/growing-our-moral-imagination AMDG is a production of the Jesuit Media Lab, which is a project of the Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States. www.jesuits.org/ www.beajesuit.org/ twitter.com/jesuitnews facebook.com/Jesuits instagram.com/wearethejesuits youtube.com/societyofjesus www.jesuitmedialab.org/
Five shers. No resolution. Just a loneliness so precise it feels like it was written about you.Javed Akhtar's ghazal moves from a quiet, devastating opening — two people, two separate gods, two separate worlds — through indifference, exhaustion, and the slow death of even grievance, until it lands on an image that stays with you: a scream that rose, echoed, and sank, while everyone listened and no one moved.Kshitij and Burair sit with what makes this ghazal hit so hard — not ornate imagery or classical weight, but the opposite. Plain words. Enormous ache. And a radif, bhi nahin, that closes door after door until there's nothing left.
Happy Mother's Day! Jacke takes advantage of an error to revisit a conversation with novelist Laurie Frankel about her book Enormous Wings, in which an unexpected pregnancy leads a seventy-seven-year-old woman to reflect on the meaning of motherhood. PLUS Edna Ferber's biographer (and grandniece) Julie Gilbert (Giant Love: Edna Ferber, Her Best-Selling Novel of Texas, and the Making of a Classic American Film) stops by to discuss her choice for the last book she will ever read.

What if your grandmother got pregnant? That's the premise behind Laurie Frankel's witty, escapist narrative about an older woman who takes up with her retirement community next-door neighbor and unexpectedly gets more than she bargained for — much to the dismay of her adult children. We spoke about her complete rewrite of the book ("I do not believe a single sentence remains . . . I opened a new document and wrote it completely from scratch . . .”), aging, family, life, and more. As Laurie says, "You don't have to give up at a certain age.” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Enormous Wings is a timely novel about Pepper Mills who grudgingly moves into a retirement community. While there, she gets some shocking news, and boy does she! Enormous Wings explores motherhood, family, sex, love, friendship, and how, even late in life, foundations can shift. Laurie handles these topics with empathy, humanity, and care. It’s why she’s so good at what she does. For this episode, Laurie talks about the inspiration, gets in-depth with her writing process, gives advice to aspiring writers, and shares some terrific book recs.

Laurie Frankel joins Book Gang to discuss Enormous Wings, a bold, bighearted novel about aging, autonomy, and the messiness of modern family life. This week's Book Gang conversation welcomes New York Times bestselling author Laurie Frankel, whose latest novel delivers a juicy book club premise wrapped in the chaos and warmth of a multigenerational Jewish family. When breast cancer survivor Pepper Mills loses her home and independence, she's thrown into a new world at Vista View Retirement Community—only to face the unimaginable: a pregnancy at seventy-seven, and a gauntlet of opinions from loved ones, doctors, and the wider world. In this lively, surprising conversation, we discuss:

It was an odd week for our VfB as we reached the finals of the Pokal for the second year in a row thanks to some late dramatics but dropped - or gained? - points against a relegation threatened Bremen. So what to think? Well, Matt and Travis attempt to break the match down via some major talking points, like SCF being a tough out to Daxo getting his first start in what seems like forever. Oh, and we try to fix our tech and sound. Fingers crossed ... just like we're crossing our fingers for the upcoming ENORMOUS match at TSG!

It is impossible to accept the holy instant without reservation unless, just for an instant, you are willing to see no past or future. ²You cannot prepare for it without placing it in the future. ³Release is given you the instant you desire it. ⁴Many have spent a lifetime in preparation, and have indeed achieved their instants of success. ⁵This course does not attempt to teach more than they learned in time, but it does aim at saving time. ⁶You may be attempting to follow a very long road to the goal you have accepted. ⁷It is extremely difficult to reach Atonement by fighting against sin. ⁸Enormous effort is expended in the attempt to make holy what is hated and despised. ⁹Nor is a lifetime of contemplation and long periods of meditation aimed at detachment from the body necessary. ¹⁰All such attempts will ultimately succeed because of their purpose. ¹¹Yet the means are tedious and very time consuming, for all of them look to the future for release from a state of present unworthiness and inadequacy.5. Your way will be different, not in purpose but in means. ²A holy relationship is a means of saving time. ³One instant spent together with your brother restores the universe to both of you. ⁴You _are_ prepared. ⁵Now you need but to remember you need do nothing. ⁶It would be far more profitable now merely to concentrate on this than to consider what you should do. ⁷When peace comes at last to those who wrestle with temptation and fight against the giving in to sin; when the light comes at last into the mind given to contemplation; or when the goal is finally achieved by anyone, it always comes with just one happy realization; “I need do nothing.”6. Here is the ultimate release which everyone will one day find in his own way, at his own time. ²You do not need this time. ³Time has been saved for you because you and your brother are together. ⁴This is the special means this course is using to save you time. ⁵You are not making use of the course if you insist on using means which have served others well, neglecting what was made for _you._ ⁶Save time for me by only this one preparation, and practice doing nothing else. ⁷“I need do nothing” is a statement of allegiance, a truly undivided loyalty. ⁸Believe it for just one instant, and you will accomplish more than is given to a century of contemplation, or of struggle against temptation.7. To do anything involves the body. ²And if you recognize you need do nothing, you have withdrawn the body's value from your mind. ³Here is the quick and open door through which you slip past centuries of effort, and escape from time. ⁴This is the way in which sin loses all attraction _right now._ ⁵For here is time denied, and past and future gone. ⁶Who needs do nothing has no need for time. ⁷To do nothing is to rest, and make a place within you where the activity of the body ceases to demand attention. ⁸Into this place the Holy Spirit comes, and there abides. ⁹He will remain when you forget, and the body's activities return to occupy your conscious mind.

1. U.S. Military Pressure on Iran via the Strait of Hormuz The U.S., under President Trump, is enforcing a naval blockade around the Strait of Hormuz. An Iranian‑flagged cargo ship allegedly attempted to run the blockade and was disabled by the U.S. Navy, boarded, and seized after warnings. The action is deliberate, proportionate, and militarily precise, intended to deter further attempts. 2. Economic Warfare as Primary Strategy The blockade is an economic weapon, not a prolonged war. Iran is portrayed as losing hundreds of millions of dollars per day in exports and imports due to the blockade. Oil exports—described as Iran’s economic lifeline—are emphasized as being almost entirely dependent on Gulf shipping routes. 3. Severe Impact on Iran’s Oil Sector Iran has limited oil storage capacity; if exports stop, wells must be shut in. Shutting in wells is described as causing permanent damage to oil fields (water coning), leading to lasting production losses. This is presented as long‑term leverage that could cripple Iran’s future revenue even if sanctions end. 4. Currency Collapse and Domestic Economic Crisis Iran’s currency (the rial) is described as undergoing hyperinflation. Banks are reportedly limiting cash withdrawals to very small daily amounts. Food prices and inflation are framed as spiraling, increasing public pressure on the regime. 5. Strategic Pressure on China Because much of Iran’s oil allegedly goes to China, the blockade is also meant to force China to pressure Iran into negotiations. The timing is framed as optimal due to oil supply rerouting and OPEC production adjustments minimizing global disruption. 6. Arrests and Enforcement Beyond the Battlefield The arrest of an Iranian arms broker in the U.S. is cited as proof of aggressive global enforcement against Iranian weapons trafficking. This supports the narrative that Iran is being squeezed financially, militarily, and legally at the same time. 7. Rejection of “Quagmire” Narrative This is not another Iraq or Afghanistan: No U.S. boots on the ground Limited, targeted military actions Defined economic and security goals Critics, especially Democrats, are politically motivated rather than security‑focused. Qatar’s Influence Campaign in the U.S. 8. Qatar as a Major Funder of U.S. Universities Qatar is described as the largest foreign donor to U.S. universities over several decades. Funding is framed as a tool to shape academic, cultural, and political opinion in its favor. 9. Connection to Campus Unrest There is a correlation between universities receiving Qatari funding and anti‑Israel or antisemitic campus protests. Universities are vulnerable to foreign influence due to financial incentives. 10. Hiring of Washington Lobbyists Qatar‑linked organizations allegedly hired major D.C. PR and lobbying firms. Purpose: reputation management, crisis response, and influencing Congress and the administration. These efforts are framed as an attempt to “whitewash” Qatar’s alleged support for Hamas and Islamist movements. 11. Control Over Academic Speech One example cited is a U.S. university campus in Qatar with contractual restrictions on criticizing the Qatari regime. This is used to argue that financial dependence undermines academic freedom. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The Fertile Ground festival of news plays in development has become a staple of the Portland theatre scene since it first began in 2009. This year’s festival has expanded to 17 days, the longest festival yet, to take in the 80-some different productions that run through April 26. We talk with the festival director Tamara Carroll and Kristin Tehrani, who helped create “When I Was a Mexican: A Bollywood Musical.”
I found myself not long ago in a courtroom as a witness for a person claiming asylum in the UK on the grounds that they had converted to Christianity, and would be persecuted in the country they had been born in if they returned. I'd got to know him well, prepared him to be baptised and he was a regular member of our congregation. We had even eaten mustard seeds together as we discussed the meaning of Jesus's teaching in the gospels about the kingdom of God. In court, he was asked to name the 12 apostles. He got to 5 before mistakenly mentioning Isaiah. The following Sunday I asked our own congregation, some of whom had been going to church for 50 years, to name the 12 apostles. No one could, and it was gently pointed out that the gospels themselves don't quite agree on the precise 12 with a question over Thaddeus. Back in the courtroom, I was also asked whether I thought it was possible to be Christian without being able to read. Our congregation member was not literate. I refrained from commenting that for hundreds of years, nothing in Christian doctrine was written down until the formation of the Creeds in the 4th century, and simply answered yes, in my opinion I thought it was possible to be Christian without being able to read. The system was working as it should, the lawyers were doing what the state required them to do. The court had to determine whether this conversion to Christianity was legitimate or not. But learning the apostles' names or being able to read was not, and could never be, the place where true and deep lived faith would breathe and flourish. The discovery that there is, in the words of the BBC reporters, a ‘sham industry', providing assistance to people to enter the UK illegally on the grounds of sexuality or belief, is not very surprising. Enormous efforts are made by people trying to get around the housing or benefits systems for example, and huge sums are spent employing accountants to minimise the amount – legally or illegally - an individual has to pay in tax. For every bureaucratic system put in place to try to organise society for the good of the whole, there will be a shadow system, dedicated to get around it for personal gain. In such shadow systems, the state's attempt at fairness, however imperfectly or carelessly expressed sometimes, is replaced with active cruelty towards the most vulnerable in our society: by traffickers, or any who exploit the desperation of those whose life circumstances have placed them at the mercy of the system. State instruments will always be blunt, and political fashions come and go as to which issues attract the most attention. But the collective commitment to compassion, fair judgement, mercy and care towards those who are most in need of help, will never, can never, go out of fashion.

Send us Fan MailTake a load off and hang out with KC and Harley as they catch up on life, loss, small joys, and whatever else pops into their heads. “Oh No” is exactly the off-beat, kind of casual, real-life chat the title promises.After two months of radio silence, the boys are back and sharing what's kept them so busy. From warm-weather yard work and getting the “rig” camp-ready, to Harley “practicing retirement” with fewer work hours, the occasional nap, and learning how to spend more time at home with Sarge, there's plenty to talk about.They also share a more tender chapter as Harley and Sarge say goodbye to their rescue Goldendoodle, and reflect on how pets grieve too when they lose a companion.There is some genuinely good news too: a Social Security increase, retroactive payments, a deeply touching letter from a longtime client, a fun day at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science for the Lego exhibit, an anniversary dinner, and birthday plans ahead.They wrap things up with Soundtrack of Our Life, each choosing a song that left a lasting mark.Keep the conversation going—subscribe, share the show with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find us.Enormous Website: www.EnormousPodcast.comVoice mail: (303) 351-2880Email: EnormousPodcast@gmail.comTwitter: www.Twitter.com/@EnormousPodInstagram:www.Instagram.com/Enormous_PodcastFacebook:www.Facebook.com/EnormousPodLink: The Soundtrack Of Our Life Video PlaylistLink: Male Diva EDM Spotify Play ListLink: Songs Of Our Life Spotify Play List

After being out for two games, the newest update revealed that Tyrese Maxey will be out for an additional three weeks and then be re-evaluated, putting his playoff status in jeopardy. With Joel Embiid and Paul George still sidelined as well, should the Sixers consider tanking for a very slim chance at retaining their first round pick? In other news, Cam Payne had a career night and Jared McCain continues to look like every bit of a steal for the Thunder.

"And one man in his time plays many parts," wrote Shakespeare in As You Like It, "[h]is acts being seven ages." We all know the feeling of passing from one phase to the next. But what happens when something dramatic mashes these acts together? In this episode, Jacke talks to New York Times bestselling author (and HOL superguest) Laurie Frankel about her novel Enormous Wings, in which a woman who should be enjoying her golden years is suddenly forced to contemplate a return to an earlier stage of life. PLUS Shakespeare scholar Rhodri Lewis (Shakespeare's Tragic Art) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read. Will he turn to Shakespeare during his final act, or opt for something else? The music in this episode is by Gabriel Ruiz-Bernal. Learn more at gabrielruizbernal.com.

Men's Basketball vs Penn State and Ohio State Starts at 0:51 Usually there's a segment for each basketball but that would just be silly. Michigan annihilates a short-handed Penn State team featuring two thunderous Mark Davis Kiwi dunks and a season high from Nimari Burnett. Is there anything else to say about this game? Michigan only had eight turnovers against Ohio State. Oddly they missed a lot of bunnies. Michigan is rounding into the elite offensive and defensive rebounding team we were hoping they would be. Nice to see Yaxel get to the rim, he doesn't do it enough. Another nice game from Trey McKenney. The balance of this team is insane. We're looking forward to what Mick Cronin says after Aday Mara stuffs him in a locker. A few more easy games before a brutal close to the season. Michigan State did Michigan a solid by beating Illinois. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Hockey vs Michigan State Starts at 25:16 Game one was one of the best college hockey games we've ever seen. Old Yost was dark and full of discontented engineers who just learned to swear. It was absolute hell for opponents and it's just not that anymore in most games. Friday night felt like Old Yost. Michigan played great when they had their backs against the wall but you can't just rally from down 4-0. Michigan could be the second best team in the country and still just not be as good as State. Michigan's 4th string goalie looks just like Ivankovic and confused Dave in the press box. Why was Ivankovic suddenly ready on Saturday? Yost got HOT in the third period on Friday because of the missed calls. Michigan can still absolutely win a regular season title. Biggest concern in the NCAA tournament is also Michigan State, but the college hockey playoffs are weird. Has the modern era of college football reached hockey? 3. Hot Takes and Offensive Recruiting Class With Steve Lorenz Starts at 53:24 Takes hotter than Brian's face watching Seth come up with something that's hot. Usually we would do this on signing day but now nobody can remember when that is. Salesi Moa signed and enrolled at Utah and still ended up at Michigan. Brady Smigiel is one of your QBs but he's coming in injured, which probably effected his recruiting stock. He's a classic pocket guy, but Whittingham likes mobile QBs. QB Tommy Carr has Tate Forcier comparisons. Savion Hiter comes in as the most talented running back in this class, as well as the last few classes. What do you think Fred Jackson would call him? Jonathan Brown comes in as a generic three star RB but there's not much being said compared to Hiter. We'll count Salesi Moa in this class, he could play receiver and safety. He might actually be able to contribute in year one. WR Travis Johnson is just outside the top 100 but was very adamant about sticking to Michigan even after everything went down. WR Jaylen Pile also didn't waver but so far seems like just a guy, but with more scholarships available sure, bring him in. TE Mason Bonner comes in from Denver, might take a little time to develop. Should be athletic enough down the road. OT Malakai Lee comes in from Honolulu and might be the most excited about the coaching change. Comparisons to Mike Onwenu. Marky Walbridge is a late riser and offensive lineman late risers are often encouraging. Adrian Hamilton projects to center and centers don't rank highly usually. Tommy Fraumann is big enough to not care about rankings, born right after the 2008 Michigan Utah in which Kyle Whittingham beat Michigan. 4. Defensive Recruiting Class Starts at 1:45:41 Carter Meadows is a five star defensive end we're all excited about. He's not allowed to enroll early so he'll probably be a year two star. DE McHale Blade is one of the coolest names in this cycle. He has all the athletic traits, could be the sleeper of the defensive side. DE Tariq Boney is your Josh Uche, just let him go after the QB. Alister Vallejo looks like Mason Graham on the field and the kid from the Sandlot in his profile. DT Titan Davis is a Kris Jenkins guy, could be an anchor DE but will more likely fill in DT needs. Linebacker is where the excitement falls off. Nobody is anywhere near four star status. CB Jamarion Vincent is a developmental guy, expect him in year three. He was previously playing QB. CB Ernest Nunley is a former Cal commit and will probably be a safety. S Jordan Deck could me a sleeper, boring safety. Overall not a big fan of the back seven but it is the transfer portal era. It could be okay but it's sketchy. MUSIC: "Bazooka"—Miami XO "Baby Steps"—Olivia Dean "Phish Pepsi"—Wednesday “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra
