    The Rage Page Volume XII Issue XIII The Official Newsletter of the Maize Rage 9 January 2011 Hello and welcome to another exciting edition of Michigan basketball at Crisler Arena. Today the Wolverines welcome in the undefeated and third-ranked team in the country, the Kansas Jayhawks. Led by Bill Self, the Jayhawks pose a great challenge for this young Michigan squad coming off a tough loss at Wisconsin after leading at halftime. Despite being 1-2 in conference play so far, with losses against Purdue and at Wisconsin, the Wolverines are far from done this season. Today Michigan has a great chance to show the world who we are by winning the second leg of the home-and-home series with the Jayhawks. Coach John Beilein has had great success in the past in closing out home-and-home series at home, boasting wins over Duke and Connecticut after facing them on their home courts. Let’s get behind our team, cheering loud and proud to help Michigan bring home an important victory. Go Blue! Here is the projected starting lineup for the Kansas Jayhawks (14-0, 0-0 Big 12): 32 Josh Selby 6’2” G Freshman superstar is eligible for only the sixth game of the season after being paid $5,000 as an amateur player. 14 Tyrel Reed 6’3” G The senior from Eureka, Kansas and former Mr. Basketball winner is a two- time Academic All-Big 12 First Team member. 10 Tyshawn Taylor 6’3” G Junior has been involved in two fights with the football team; one of the altercations resulted in a dislocated thumb from throwing a punch.
