With all of that height up front
Michigan will be able to move
Powell away from the inside to
more of a swing-forward position.
Although she is tough around the
basket, playing further out will
allow her to utilize her skills even
better and help take some of the
scoring load off of Brown.
"Tempie Brown is definitely
going to be counted on-to do some
consistent scoring, but Tanya
Powell is really the sleeper of the
Big Ten. I think she is really, in all
honesty, one of the finest forwards
in the league right now.. Playing
more on the perimeter she has been
spectacular and I see her as being a
real force in the league. Those two,
I think, are a great one-two punch,"
VanDeWege said.
Szczechowski added, "(Powell is)
a really good role model for
everyone. She really works hard and
never gives up."
Others in the Big Tennalong
with VanDeWege, expect big results
from this year's Wolverine squad.
"I know they played very
strongly towards the end of last
season. They'll be much improved
and should challenge some of the
upper division teams. They should
be very competitive," said Lin
Dunn, the coach of perennial Big
Ten power Purdue.
VanDeWege explains, "I expect a
better team. There isn't any question
that we'are better at this point (than
last season).. . think it's very
realistic to be an upper division
team. Any time you're an upper
division team in a powerful league
like the Big Ten you have to
consider it a chance to get in the
NCAA (tournament)."
"I think we're going to be really
good and if winning the Big Ten
was ever in my mind, it's this
year," Szczechowski said. "If we
play as we're capable of, we'll (be
in the conference's upper division),
but if we don't, we'll get our butts
kicked.
Powell added: "Realistically I
think we have a chance of being in
the (conference's) Top 3. We want
to make the tournament."

Pressure hangs from title
banner on Steve Fisher
Billy Joel sang about it, and like it or not, Steve Fisher has it.
Pressure.
After they raise the national championship banner at Crisler Arena it
will stare down at Fisher like an imposing big brother's eye. It will remind
everyone of the past, of that magical Cinderella ride on which Fisher placed
his team. But it will also be a banner of expectations.
Fisher will always be compared to that short time span, and it might
not be fair to him. How many other coaches have won national
championships? Not many.
But now, as we await the tipoff of the 1989-90 season, there is all types
of talk of repeat. Everyone loved the feeling. Everyone loved that ride. And
now, everyone wants a repeat
In the past, talking about winning a national championship always
lurked somewhere out in left field at Michigan. With Fisher's predecessor,
when the talk came to the NCAA tournament, it rested around whether or
not Michigan could escape the opening rounds.
That now has changed.
With that change, there lies a lot of pressure on the man who many
claim is the only reason the Wolverines won the title in the first place.
Fisher masterfully motivated a team through a tough six game tournament.
Now, he must do it for a whole season. Maneuvering a team through an 18
game Big Ten schedule is a lot tougher in some ways. Individual games
don't mean as much, and holding a team together, without such a hyper,
emotional setting is difficult.
There will be those who will be quick to jump on the new coach's
back. They will remind you that except for his time coaching Rich East
High School in Illinois, and for six NCAA tournament games, Fisher
remains untested as a head coach.
With each win in the tournament, Fisher won the hearts of more fans
across the country. It's easy to get behind the little guy, the underdog, who
starts accomplishing more than anyone ever expected. He excelled at it.
But Bill Frieder also found that fans are fickle. You better just keep
winning. So did Gerry Faust. When Faust came out of a Cincinnati high
school to take over the legendary Notre Dame football program, everyone
loved him. "Little guy makes it big" went the story. Shortly after, when
the results did not meet the expectations, fans wanted him crucified.

return with 6-foot-4 junior Ellen

"We've moved up every year and

However, replacing guards Lea

The job wore on him, as the presidency did on Jimmy Carter. See these
two pictures? The two show uncharacteristicly strong physical
resemblances. If the pressure gets to Fisher, his face by the end of the
season may show the wary look that Carter had when he left office.
Of course, no one wants to see that. Fisher is the genuinely friendly
guy that he appears to be - the apple-cheeked, tomato growing guy-next-
door type of image.
He has the players' support because of his strong ability to relate and
communicate with his players. That's something Frieder never had.
Frieder also lacked a positive image. Fisher stresses positive image --
time and time again. Last week when the team scrimmaged at Detroit
Country Day High School, Fisher became upset because not all the players
were wearing shorts with the Michigan insignia on them. That's attention
to detail. When the team travels, Fisher wants a more positive image
conveyedby the way they dress - and at all times by the way they address
the media.
Those are all changes which will upgrade the program.
So far, Fisher has enjoyed every minute of the job, claiming each day is
