What's Your Focus | Merle Bremer by ResLife Ministry

Todd Standing is a Canadian Sasquatch researcher with decades of field experience under his belt. He doesn't study Sasquatch from a computer screen. He goes out into the wilderness and has physical encounters with this elusive species.Not only that, but instead of writing books and trying to “prove” that Sasquatch exists, he now focuses on being a bridge between Sasquatch and people. He has a popular YouTube channel where he shares videos and evidence, and most importantly, he takes people into the wilderness so they can have their own experiences.We first came to know Todd in 2018-19. While watching his documentary Discovering Bigfoot, Larry's mother, Makah Elder Deanna of the Makah Tribe in the northwest of the USA, was walking past the television. She looked up and shouted, “look! That's a Sasquatch! That's exactly what they look like. That's what I saw in the woods by the road just a few weeks ago.”That moment changed the tone in the room immediately.Although I had seen a Sasquatch in our backyard, I had not seen his face. Only his body from the chest down as he ran through the woods, his shoulders and head hidden by tree branches. I had also heard a couple of them speaking to each other in a fast, unfamiliar, almost rhythmic language. At another time, I recorded multiple long, extremely loud wails.So when Deanna spoke, we listened.Larry and I went from casually watching the documentary to paying very close attention. We contacted Todd and invited him to the Rez for a conversation.At the time, we assumed Todd had recreated his experiences for the film. That the images were not actual Sasquatch. But after Elder Deanna identified one immediately, and then shared her own experiences seeing them in and around the Makah Indian Reservation her entire life, that question of whether the images were recreated or real, stopped mattering. Deanna's approval and recognition was enough for us.So for those who try to prove that Todd fabricated the images, I'll say this: even if he did, they are extremely accurate representations. And I would also say, “you are asking the wrong question”. The right question is, “where can I meet one myself?”For us, the firsthand recognition by Makah Elders carried more weight than any external debate about the authenticity of the images in Todd's documentary.What is true and cannot be faked is that Todd has spent decades encountering, observing, and communicating with Sasquatch. That becomes evident very quickly when you are around him. And also because the local Sasquatch tribes genuinely like Todd.As Native Americans, Larry and I have never questioned the existence of Sasquatch. Asking us if Sasquatch exists is like asking if frogs exist. It is a nonsensical question.When I spoke with Elder Deanna at the time, she told me that the separation between the Makah people and the Sasquatch tribes in the area was relatively recent. She said that before that separation, Sasquatch and Makah would meet regularly to exchange medicine and stories.Unfortunately, Elder Deanna passed some years ago, and we can no longer ask her to expand on that relationship.Have I seen Sasquatch? Yes. With my physical eyes. I have also heard them with my physical ears. And not just running through the woods a few yards from me. They physically came into the Shamanshack where I met them to figure out medicine for one of their babies.And they communicate in multiple ways, including through the method I teach in my class Experiential Telepathy, which is a primary form of communication across the Universe. So, yes I have also heard them and seen them with my inner ears and eyes.Since that first visit with Todd, we have hosted him and his expeditioners most years in the spring, when Sasquatch activity in the valley increases. Or perhaps it's not that they become more active… but that we do. That we pay closer attention when Todd facilitates our time in the deep forest.Todd brings a fascinating group of people each year. Through these visits, we form new connections, and our own tribe steps into a different way of interacting with the forest. We go out not just to observe, but to engage, to listen, and to communicate as a group. Something we don't typically do.On our podcast, Driving To The Rez, we share the broader story of this year's visit (2026).But inside the Wisdom Keeper member section of the podcast, we go much deeper. For Todd's visit, we are releasing the member section of the podcast for free.It is in the Wisdom Keeper section where Todd shares insights about his work that he doesn't normally speak about publicly. And where our panelists unpack what they experienced during the week of forest trips and explorations, in their own words, without filters or conclusions placed on top of it.If you've ever wondered what it's like to step into this kind of interaction, not as an observer but as a participant, that's where those conversations live.And this particular visit… the forest did not stay quiet for long. Next week we continue our exploration of all the interactions, knowledge and wisdoms experienced during Todd's 2026 drive to the rez. This is a public episode.

Just Won a Natty/Indianapolis Vibes Starts at 0:51 No crying this time, but we do think we can have nice things now. You get out of it what you put into it; the UMHoops guys are probably experiencing the highest of highs. The 2023 football championship was a thing no other fanbase has experienced; this is what a normal natty feels like. Some of us survived the 2023-24 team. The story begins with the Ellerbe years, the Beilein era absolutely helped build this. Don't resent the Fab Five, but they unfairly had to represent what Michigan could be. Reconsidering the Juwan era, the heart condition, how badly he needed a GM. Beilein was spiritually (and literally) present for this team; loudest the stadium got before Michigan hit a three was when they showed him. Very unselfish team. Built through the portal—Cronin was never going to be a good fit for Mara, Rez wasn't going to have a role after Illinois got the other Ivisic, Cadeau was struggling in a bad system at UNC, Yaxel used the portal to get here from JUCO via UAB, Roddy Gayle was the national glue guy of the year, Nimari was here three years through two coaching changes, and Will Tschetter was a five-year player who took a smaller role: nobody can make a good faith argument that any of these guys don't belong here. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]  2. The UConn Game Starts at 27:50 Takes hotter than the rims during the final last night. Story of the game was UConn fouling the crap out of Michigan from literally the tip. Miss the first Cadeau and-one, then hit 24 free throws in a row to offset the terrible threes, until Roddy missed his pair. Snakebit shooting because Rez/Mara/Yax kept getting mismatches down low, but Michigan was able to play their bigs together, and that just made it impossible for UConn to score. Felt like Lendeborg was himself on defense; offensively he was obviously hobbled. Their communication was fantastic, and there weren't mismatches for UConn to hunt. A time or two they got Mara versus Karaban on the perimeter or something, but they didn't get backcut once. Tarris was basically shut down by Mara. Only thing they got were those ORebs, which were hat tips to them and also related to Michigan taking way the three. Next year Trey McKenney; graded on a curve he made 2 of Michigan's three jumpers, including the dagger. The Rube Goldberg three. Cadeau vs the Cadeau we thought we were getting. 3. How this Team Came Together Starts at 59:16 Revisiting how the roster came together, May's eye for talent, because every guy he got at FAU wound up a star somewhere. You can't actually build from the portal; if that's the lesson they're taking from this team they're going to get lit up. Cadeau cleaned up the TOs (but still commits them at the end of the game his banana peel). On the human to athlete personality spectrum, Mara is a normal human being, who never should have been paired with Cronin—all little guys who play basketball are born killers because you have to be, but it's common for bigs to be like that. Mara was the best player; he developed into a beast by the end of the year. Transfer teams: if you look at the rest of the top ten four didn't make the Tournament; Michigan was the only protected seed that took a lot of transfers. St. John's and Louisville were the others. Once you're been at a school a year you're not a transfer anymore. Cig vs May: Cignetti relied more on his JMU transfers. It's especially hard to recreate what Michigan did defensively, because at the end these guys won a title by doing the best job of anybody of playing with each other. Introducing the Bobby Hurley Index: How many photos do you look like Jim Carrey in The Mask? 4. Next Year Starts at 1:38:41 Are they looking at the portal list or the list of guys projected to the late 1st/early 2nd round? Mara and Rez are probably done—small chance they get Rez back. Cason going to redshirt. Gayle, Burnett, Yaxel are out of eligibility. Cadeau and McKinney: best backcourt in the country next year? McCoy is Charles Matthews-ish, going to be a major defensive presence; if you get two years out of him he's a big get but he doesn't have a deep shot, might be freshman Darius Morris or what we wanted Rubin Jones (PG who can guard 1-4) to be. Recruited lots of SFs: Grady? Liburd? Brown? All going to be 6'5" gumby-armed switchable guards. Backup PG: can McCoy or McKenney can play point for 10 mpg. Do they have a wing? Want that guy to be switchable; Seth thinks they're going to have a big war chest to find an NBA four who can play the three in addition to two bigs. Goodman will be next year's Tschetter. Need three portal bigs. Is Dusty May the #1 coach you would want to have if you were looking for one right now? UNC search was Tommy Lloyd and Dusty May right?

Join Diana and Renee as we break down Dark Winds Season 4 Episode 7, an episode packed with emotional depth, layered storytelling, and major twists that set up the finale. We dive into Chee's powerful journey with identity and healing, Irene's increasingly dangerous obsession, and the shifting relationships that continue to evolve, especially between Joe and Emma. From cultural themes like Hózhó (balance and harmony) to shocking revelations about Leroy and Billie, this episode reminds us why Dark Winds stands out: it's not just about the mystery, it's about the people.

Week 1Before we discuss why you are here, I would like to make a short announcement. After using the quiz~~, which I will share with you in this newsletter,~~ something became very clear.My mission has changed.You may or may not know this, but although my purpose, “to make the world buzz better,” has stayed the same throughout my life, my mission (as a public person) has gone from “raise the vibration of the planet” to “raise the frequency of the planet” to “deliver the message of empowerment.” And now, after taking that quiz, it has become: “The light within rises and becomes form.”This is not a “speaker/audience” relationship between us anymore. It is now a very co-creative relationship, an active, co-creative partnership in bringing in the New-Paradigm to express physically and experientially for all of us.To reflect this new mission, I will be adding a short and simple Practice Lab at the start of each weekly newsletter: a simple exercise you can do to support our path to facilitate the light to rise and become form in our lives. Therefore this article is not just me writing and you reading, but it includes you testing what I write about in your own life.This week's Practice LabTake this short Quiz and discover your own purpose and mission. . Reply to this email with your result.After a recent newsletter and podcast, “Why ‘What Do I Want?' Is the Wrong Question,” Driving To the Rez, Episode 281, Parts 1 and 2, something very interesting happened.We began a conversation in our Dojo, Walk With Me Now, about each of our purposes and missions. This led to the realization that the process of discovery could be quite involved, and time intensive, with much back and forth to drill into the precise reasons many of us came here at this time.The core of the conversation was about how to make decisions based on your purpose and mission rather than just using “what do I want” The conversation continued with how I use a very simple sentence to determine if a decision is the right one: “Does this decision facilitate my mission?”To me, it was simple and straightforward.But here's where things got interesting — the biggest question that came out of that conversation was: “What is my purpose and mission?”In February 2026, we explored this in our articles and podcasts “Why ‘What Do I Want?' Is Not the Right Question.” The conversation in the Wisdom Keeper Hour became so expansive that we split it over three weeks.This is indeed a very important discussion to have right now.What followed was that many people at Walk With Me Now began actively exploring why they are here — and what they came to do.Soon after, our DTTR panelist Dr. Kara began creating an interactive quiz designed to go deeper than surface answers like “I am here to be happy.”With Larry's help using vibecoding, and with input from our community, the quiz quickly evolved through testing and refinement.Version one is linked at the top of this article for you to try. You can edit your answers, retake it, and refine your clarity over time.Next week, we will explore the diversity of missions and purposes — and how discovering them can begin to reshape your life.The discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

Things Discussed: Howard preview: Their center isn't a center, but he's mini-Yaxel. Takeaways from BTT: Brian/Craig/Sam: The Purdue game was just a ref show—Oscar Cluff is a a) Buffalo, b) Oaf, c) deliberately running guys over and cheating on screens. Michigan doesn't have enough galoots. Seth: I've moved on. Biggest concern is Michigan vs Wisconsin: bringing too much help to the rim when we have some five-out teams (Saint Louis!) in the first weekend. Georgia and St. Louis. Georgia is soft—they have a shot-blocker and a lot of guards who can get their own points. Robbie Avila looks like Seth Fisher—he looks like a gumnut out there—but he's very skilled, especially at setting his guys up. I really like their four, Amari McCottry. Yaxel, take over man! Lots of opportunities to get him vs a mouse in the house and they didn't make the read. Michigan seemed to want to use Rez in that spot instead and he didn't have an inspired week. Pickin upsets: UNI over St. John's? Can slow the game to a grind. Kinda think NDSU? They've rediscovered the lost art of the defensive-invariant floater—not saying I am picking a 14 over a 3 but that's the one. Craig: Anyone notice they got Hurley, Izzo, and Cronin all in the same corner of the bracket? Poor Johnny Dawkins: what did I do to end up with these guys? Going further than their seed: Arkansas and Acuff. He's going to be a lottery pick, Arkansas paid for him and it was worth it. Calipari teams are kids at the start of the year (when they played MSU) but by the Tourney they're not freshmen anymore. OT: [BREAKING NEWS: Cade Cunningham will be out 8-10 weeks with a collapsed lung.] Billy Donlon in at EMU. Why did he leave Michigan? Not saying. In break: Does Michigan get an NIL discount? Champions Circle doesn't want to say so but yeah, when the money is close it's about lifestyle. Texas should get a Tournament ban for getting in last year and this year. Their best nonconference win: NC State. Bubble was terrible this year but that doesn't mean a mid SEC team should get in. Miami University is the perfect Tournament invite: They understood the assignment. Whom to invite instead of bubbly major conference teams? Mid-majors who won their conferences. Illinois in the Final Four? Yeah, they've got size and Wagler can shoot them to Indy (I had Nebraska taking out Florida). Houston takes such ugly shots, Illinois will make them uglier. Who can expose their frontcourt? Well, Florida.

Things Discussed: Fears: The Red Cedar Message Board are sacrificing their junk to get the bottom of this. Minus LJ: Roddy Gayle stepping up. Just need him to finish (read: no turnovers) at the rim. Trey McKenney doing it on defense. What teams scare you in the BTT? Illinois has the size and can shoot their way out of any problems with the softness of their frontcourt. Nebraska plays offense like an NBA team, and that allows them to get around Michigan's defense a bit. MSU is a bad matchup for them, however, because MSU has so much size on the perimeter. Purdue? They are getting 100% what they can from offense and they are limited on defense. Michigan? Can they keep Mara and Cadeau on the court? Cadeau is showing he's willing to shoot more and there will be a correction to that from defenses to bring back the dunks. Officiating vs MSU, what's the deal? Fears should have been thrown out of the game. The 3rd foul on Rez was 100% a foul grift and needs to be legislated out of the game. The only reason they called a tech on Mara is because they just gave one to Fears. They must like being yelled at by Izzo because they reward his behavior. It's just the one guy—Ron Groover—who shows deference to Izzo, is a notorious Duke friend. But this does not apply to Jeffrey Anderson, and DJ Carstensen, who's retiring after the Tourney, is the best at officiating bigs. The Fears foul can't be a Class B tech—that's what McKenney knocking the ball out of a guy's hands is. These should not be the same things. We saw that in hockey last night when ND ran the goalie twice; the Big Ten doesn't care about player safety. Izzo: Why should you go to jail for a crime someone else noticed? IU: What happened to you? Don't even think DeVries's kid is that good. NCAA Tourney? Duke lost their PG and might be without their C until the 2nd week, aren't as deep as Michigan. Arizona has so much size and depth; their offense can be stopped by three bigs but until they meet a Michigan they probably won't be threatened. Iowa State can shoot man—Mommy!—might be in our bracket because Michigan played a lot of the potential 2 seeds already. Good news all of these teams don't want to see Michigan.

God Restores Marriages by ResLife Ministry

Things Discussed: Illinois game: Impressed that they not just shut down Wagler with Yax but they hunted Wagler defensively. They're not physical enough to play defense and not quick enough to guard point guards—Dent did it to them, Fears did it to them. Why didn't Illinois shoot us out of their building if they're five out? Mara was everywhere on defense, Boswell was left to shoot. When Boswell got downhill he gave Cadeau issues. That's something to watch out for because burlyguards on top of a five-out offense are able to score vs M. Yax went off-script to switch on defense. MSU the second-best team in the Big Ten; Illinois is going to get physicaled out of the Tournament. Rez was lit, and that maybe lit up Mara. When Mara gets himself to the rim he's unstoppable. What do you do when someone takes away what you want to be? Cason: Problem with losing him is ^. He was our answer. Best finisher on the team, critical in transition. Like with Rez last year, the play that he got injured on was the play that shows you who he is. Replacing Cason: Cadeau has to back off to play 30 minutes. Minutes-wise Trey and Gayle. Usage-wise, Yaxel can do more in transition and hunting his own buckets, want to run more offense through Mara. Gayle would be nice—he's been that before—but he hasn't been good this year. McKenney is not a creator at all at this point. If they play without Cadeau opponents are going to blitz the ball. When that's Mara...good luck. Who's the Big Ten PoY: Two different questions: Who's the best player in the Big Ten this year? Yaxel or Wagler, and Yax's defense puts him over the top for me. Who's going to win it? Probably Braden Smith, even though he's

====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1==================================================== LECCIÓN DE ESCUELA SABÁTICA         I TRIMESTRE DEL 2026Narrado por: Eddie RodriguezDesde: Guatemala, GuatemalaUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchMARTES 17 DE FEBREROLA CABEZA DE LA IGLESIA Lee Efesios 1:22 y Colosenses 2:10. ¿A qué se refiere Pablo cuando llama a Jesús “cabeza de la iglesia” (Efe. 5:23)? Es común en numerosos idiomas referirse metafóricamente a una posición de liderazgo como “la cabeza”, algo que también se observa en la Biblia. Nota el sentido de la palabra “cabeza” en los siguientes textos: • Moisés escogió “varones de virtud de entre todo Israel, y los puso por jefes (literalmente “cabezas”) sobre el pueblo, sobre mil, sobre cien, sobre cincuenta y sobre diez” (Éxo. 18:25).• “Los jefes (literalmente “cabezas”) de la congregación” (Núm. 31:26).• Dios pondría a Israel “por cabeza y no por cola” si le obedecían (Deut. 28:13).• “Porque la cabeza de Siria es Damasco, y la cabeza de Damasco, Rezín” (Isa. 7:8)• “Y los hijos de Judá y de Israel […] levantarán para sí un jefe (literalmente “cabeza”)” (Ose. 1:11).• “Jefes (literalmente “cabezas”) de la casa de Jacob, y capitanes de la casa de Israel” (Miq. 3:9).• “Cristo es la cabeza de todo hombre” (1 Cor. 11:3). Por lo tanto, Cristo, como cabeza de la iglesia, provee el liderazgo, la orientación y el sustento necesarios para su unidad y crecimiento (ver Col. 2:19). Lee 1 Corintios 12:12-27. Pablo describe aquí a la iglesia como un “cuerpo”. ¿Qué otros aspectos de la iglesia son representados mediante esta metáfora? Así como el cuerpo no puede vivir sin la cabeza, la vida puede resultar mucho más difícil cuando se pierde o se lesiona una de sus partes. A menudo, no reconocemos cuán importante es algo hasta que lo perdemos. Si tuvieras que renunciar a una parte de tu cuerpo, ¿cuál elegirías? ¿Qué te dice esto acerca de cuán vital es cada persona como miembro de la iglesia?

Who Is Luc Lake, Anyway, and Why Am I Talking About Him?Luc Lake is one of my created artists, and his life is shrouded in mystery. No one at my studio knows where he lives, where he comes from, or where he goes after a recording session.His latest album, Larger Earth, comes with a disclaimer:“We, at IneliaRecords.com, will neither confirm nor deny that Luc Lake is from the Larger Earth, the stars (whether they are a lake or a reality), an ultra-dimension, the future or the past, or a planet with three suns that is not Earth.”What we do know is that Luc exists where sound meets perception, using music not to tell stories but to open space. He is not a performance persona or a character designed for spectacle. He is very serious about his work and his message.Luc uses few words and a Tech House expression to convey the energetic states he wants us to experience. His music is minimal, spacious, and emotionally rich without being overwhelming. It leaves room. It doesn't rush meaning or require interpretation.Through Luc Lake, I explore states of awareness that resist explanation but translate clearly into feeling. The tracks are environments you enter and recognize through forgotten knowledge and buried memory.Larger Earth is the first full expression of what the Larger Earth feels like as a place. It is not symbolic. It is not hypothetical. It is not metaphor. It breaks from the known continents and from the shadow of illusion that has shaped how we have been taught to understand Earth.The album was not created to describe a future or propose an idea, but to reflect something many people already sense quietly: that Earth, as lived, is more layered, intelligent, and expansive than the version we were taught to believe exists.In this work, Luc normalizes what might otherwise seem fanciful. He opens doors to perception without telling us what is behind them. It is up to us to open those doors and walk through, or at least peek through the keyhole.There is a moment many people recognize but rarely talk about.Nothing dramatic happens.No vision. No collapse. No revelation scene.You are standing in your kitchen, walking down a familiar street, answering emails, and suddenly the world feels bigger and radically different. Not louder. Not brighter. Just wider. As if reality has more rooms than you were previously allowed to enter. Time stretches, or sometimes collapses, and suddenly several hours have passed.Luc Lake's album Larger Earth was created to bring clarity to that moment.Not another world.This one, perceived differently.The lyrics on Larger Earth are intentionally spare. They do not tell stories in the usual way, and they do not explain themselves. This is not because something is missing. It is because Luc is not trying to convince you of anything.He is pointing to something you already sense. Something you already know.In real-life terms, the album is not about leaving Earth or escaping human experience. It is about what Earth reveals itself to be when perception expands beyond the narrow bandwidth we were trained to use.Same planet.More perception.Why the Lyrics Don't Explain ThemselvesI do teach that meaning and understanding often arrive through definition. However, some experiences collapse when they are over-described.I was very tempted to explain every single line in Luc's songs, but doing so would defeat the point. The lyrics are not puzzles to solve; they are coordinates.That said, for those who enjoy exploring inspiration and backstory, I will be revealing some of the sources behind specific descriptions, songs, and lines in the Wisdom Keeper section of our podcast, Driving to the Rez.How to Listen to the AlbumFeel into the music and the lyrics.Let the imagery take you as far as it can.Allow yourself to tap into the remembrance.If you'd like to spend more time with this work, you can download your personal copy of Luc's album at my store, or listen on Spotify here.We also explore the Larger Earth and the role of music in greater depth on our podcast, where these themes continue to unfold through conversation.Enjoy the music, and the memories.IneliaThe discussion doesn't stop here - listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

Things Discussed: Nebraska: Nearly won that game shorthanded. Got great performances from replacements but ran their starters into the ground. Craig's analysis: Hoiberg decided to play some football. Steamroller screens and the like. Nebraska just made contested threes in the first half that they missed in the second half. Sam Hoiberg is straight up good: understands basketball, understands how to organize a team, understands how to get the ball to his guys. Second half Michigan did press the press the edges a little tighter. Kenpom tracks 2 point distance. We're thrilled. Seth: The most important stats in basketball are two-point defense and two-point offense, and the most important component of two point percentage is distance from the rim. Michigan wins these games because they get to the rim better than anybody and push you away from the rim better than anybody. Hoiberg knew he had to shoot to win, but also drew up some excellent sets to get free twos when he needed them. Shout-out to Nebraska's Max Bredeson kickout and form tackling. Hoiberg messed so well with Michigan's switches: They want to switch one to four, and they want to leave Mara available to put his hand in the way at the rim. Nebraska's response was to run these double screens—the Rip Hamilton way—to get cracks open for their shooters, but that contributed to their shooters getting tired in the 2nd half. Turnovers: some are baked in, unforced. This game additionally had ref show turnovers but they're going to take chances to get to the rim because that's what's so important to them. MSU preview: They're such a Big Ten team. They can get around M's two-point defense because they shoot assisted other twos and those are good enough shots opposite the #1 defense. They get after you (not the ball: they jump on your back) on the boards. Kohler has really turned himself into a shooter, might be an NBA player. Fears was terrible early in the season but now he's an excellent guard. Gets after it (and you) on defense, isn't a great shooter but can find pockets to pass into and draws a ton of fouls then makes his FTs. Coen Carr = Brent Petway! MSU is going to play dirty. Nobody in the country gets better calls at home, and they are going to use that strategically. Expect them to be mauling Mara to deny paint touches, expect Cooper to have his arm wrapped on Rez and pulling him down. All the gritty trick that define Izzo teams. What's with Yax? Think he's drawing more defensive attention and that's creating more for Morez Johnson. That's a credit to Dusty May: when he built this roster he built in answers for everything you want to do to them. Credit to Trey McKenney. He's become the 6th man, because he will come in and give you whatever you need right then. Defense? He's big and athletic. Need to hit some free throws (vs OSU, or the three at the Under-8 timeout?) he's got you. Missing your threes, he'll knock down a pair.

Things Discussed: IU national champions: Most unlikely championships in the history of sports. Credit Cignetti and top to bottom program management. How did they do it? Talent evaluation is elite. Built like 2023 Michigan: develop a lot of your own guys and then surgically found guys in the portal. Seth: Lesson for the rest of CFB is ROI: IU wasn't paying that much for their JMU guys, wasn't spending to have 5-stars learning to play on the three-deep. Focus shifting from Ty Haywoods (super talented, needs 3 years) to Blake Frazier (ready now) because there's no guarantee you'll get any return. Need to build your scouting department to watch all of CFB and know what you need. Sam: Can Michigan recreate the JMU Dudes with some of the Utah guys they got? Not a coincidence the Big Ten is winning championships and SEC isn't even in the game. Two reasons the SEC was dominant: they had a culture of paying players under the table and they had Nick Saban. Being able to develop guys (without them leaving or costing too much) will be the golden egg in the future. How sustainable? Maybe? Bringing in a veteran QB every year, DC might get Jesse Minter'd to a better job. Should remain a good team, very hard to repeat. Hoops: Shooting better? Maybe, but 3s are random and they're probably capped around okay in that department because they have guys like Gayle, Cason and Yax. IU lost their main guy who could get to the bucket and M could lock them down. Excellent defensive performance disguised by Kenpom. IU shut down M's transition game by abandoning the boards. Interesting decision by IU because those were M weaknesses. Yax okay? Think he plays off Rez—the scouting report is focus on Yaxel so that's opened up things for Johnson, since no team has enough big wings to last against both of them. Ohio State preview: OSU is an effort game—Thornton can shoot and they make a lot of floaters. CANNOT let them cut and get to the rim. They don't play defense so you have to put up 100 on them. Nebraska: Nebraska might be without their freshman winger Braden Frager, that makes them a five-out team. Can you play Mara against them? Break: Tatum to RB? Probably a Whittingham "gonna try that" thing. He's had success with that, but it's a bit late and there's no scouting on it. Like what it says about Tatum as a team player. Don't think he can play both AND baseball. That's a lot, and safety is the moon to him. Hockey: Michigan is #1 in Big Ten points percentage but they've got the hardest schedule of any team in hockey left to go. Let off the gas for 10 minutes of 120 against Minnesota and were unlucky not to get more goals. Have to protect Peck—this team can play defense like that, going to have to maintain that focus. Can't lose points against the OSUs and Minnesotas because the games vs MSU/Wisconsin will determine the league. Can you get Ivankovic back? Maybe? Haven't heard anything positive except they haven't ruled it out. Trey Burke: Top three player in M history? Yeah. Block was clean, and so was the team.
