Michigan Daily Articles from 4/16

The Michigan Daily had four articles today about the team. One was about Kevin Borseth, another about new associate head coach Dawn Plitzuweit.

A third article was about recruits, mentioning incoming frosh Veronica Hicks and primarily about Alex Guyton's reaction. (Mixed, to say the least - they're still open to Michigan but seem to be taking a "wait and see" approach.)

The Guytons haven't had a chance to really get to know Borseth, especially considering they had a two-year relationship with Burnett and her staff. There are obviously reservations from the recruit's end.

"It appears to me that Michigan made the same type of hire that they had before," Robin said. "He comes from a mid-major environment. The teams that they played against aren't, obviously, the Big Ten-level teams.

"If he were to offer again, I don't think we'd make a decision right away, at least until we have seen him coach and what he's able to do with what he has there at Michigan now."

But that doesn't mean Michigan is out of the running.
As a fan, I hope Guyton does end up committing to Michigan, but only if it is a good fit for her. Choosing the right college can involve any number of factors even if you aren't going to be playing varsity sports.

The final article was about the current teams reaction to their new coach - in general, quite positive.
