Quote of the game
"I think that's an understatement."
- Michigan coach Brian Ellerbe when asked by a
reporter whether leading scorer Jamal Crawfords
absence from last night's game deprived the
Wolverines of a reasonable chance to win.

Player of the game
Michigan State forward Monis Peterson
Peterson scored 32 points on i1-of-15 shooting
including 5-of-8 fiom 3-point range. The All-Big
Ten senior, who hails fion Flint, also grabbed 10

double of the season


Sunday, Feb. 6
Michigan vs Ohio State, Cris/er Arena, 1p.m. (CBS)
After last nights loss, Michigan saw its losing streak extended to three
dames. And the going only gets tougher, Sunday, when the Wolverines
face the Big Ten's other dynamite guard duo - Buckeyes Scoonie Penn
and Michael Redd. Ohio State has only lost one Big Ten game, thus far.
Wednesday, Feb. 9
Michigan at Illinois, Assembly Hall (Champaign), 7 p.m. (ESPN)
When they faced off Jan. 16 in Ann Arbor, it took Michigan an overtime period to beat the
Fighting llini - a team that couldn't hold a candle to Michigan State in a 25-point loss this
past Sunday

open the pop and plopped down in an empty chair, awaiting
the press conference.
If Michigan State's media director hadn't clued me in, I
might never have noticed. Two tables away, nonchalantly as
could be, sat No. 8 Michigan State's head coach Tom Izzo,
chatting casually with reporters.
I could not help but crack a smile, and I pulled up a chair.
The conversation between Izzo and the media lasted about an
hour, and the charismatic coach was sure to throw in a few
good-natured jabs about reporters while fielding their
queries.
The whole thing was so open - nobody hiding behind
microphones or denials or manufactured "no comments.
Sure, State has had a few problems within the program over
the past two seasons - but it hasn't had a noticeable effect on
the Spartans' demeanor off the court.
The same is not true in Ann Arbor.
Some might say Ellerbe inherited a mess. But what he truly
inherited was an atmosphere. Michigan is one of the biggest
programs in the nation, successful or not. Marketing gurus
claim it is tops in the field.
And it did not get there without effort. Every little off-the-
court factor that has made Michigan the perpetual No. I has
also contributed to its lock-and-key attitude and endless scruti-
ny by the media.
It should come as little surprise that, while reporters in East
Lansing can joke with the Big Ten Coach of the Year over
cookies, the doors to Crisler Arena are locked to outsiders. It
shouldn't be a shock that nobody was told until two minutes
into the game last night that Jamal Crawford has been ineligi-
ble since last Friday.
All Brian Ellerbe wants to do is coach basketball. And ail I
want to do is write basketball.
But this is Michigan, and as we both have learned, that's not
a luxury anyone here can have.
