Absolutely.

Actually, it's more expensive.

My wife asked me if I should sell our tickets to go for the college fund.

which we are not doing by the way, but there was a serious conversation about that.

I've been waiting for weeks for you to see the two-point distance field goal because it is pretty nuts.

You know, Adai Mara is almost single-handedly responsible for that.

He's a 7'3 guy who was somehow stuck on the deep recesses of UCLA's bench for two years.

You know, McCronin's the most grumpy coach besides Tom Izzo in the game.

That might be why.

Yeah.

And then, of course, they surround him

with 6'9", Morris Johnson, who most Michigan fans expected to platoon at center with Adai Mara.

No, no, no, he's playing power forward and is in himself a guy who switches one through five.

And then Yaxo Lindenberg, the number one transfer in every transfer ranking that you could see in the offseason, came in expected to be the stretch four.

No, he's playing the three at 6'10", with a seven-foot-plus wingspan.

He's a guy who's going to be a lottery pick forever.

40 exact reasons that you just mentioned underlying those metrics.

He affects the game at the rim defensively, and he affects the game defensively on the perimeter with his length.

Unfortunately, yes.

So I think this makes sense to start with the player who Duke fans are going to be most familiar with, who is Elliot Cadot, a man who was the point guard for our hated rivals eight miles down the road for two years.
