Franz Wagner Hat Sich Nach Michigan Verpflichtet!
Legen Sie Ihre Englisch-Deutsch-Übersetzer weg—I mean put away your English to German translators, because our Teutonic Savior is coming…at least I think that's what this means?
Despite the head coach who recruited him leaving for the Cavs after check-in began on Wagner's cross-Atlantic visit, Michigan gains the equivalent of a lottery pick at a position of major need, and a massive upgrade in shooting on a team that has a lot of everything but. This takes Juwan Howard's first-year expectations to "Proooobably make the tournament with a defensive team that has no spacing" to "Possible a Sweet16-seed with a defensive team that has no spacing when Wagner's off the court."
If you'll excuse my German: Scheiße ja!!!!
Great job coach Howard!

What??? John's only 10 minutes a game? I hope not. Should be almost even with Livers.
What were you watching last year that says Johns should be almost even with Livers?
Please tell me.
Maybe you can convince me 28 and 12mpg, but that's it. After that, take 2 more from Wagner to get Johns to 14.
But I'm still trying to figure out what you all were watching other than HS ratings. Castleton was better than Johns last year.
Livers will play some SF, Wagner will play some SG (that's his current position), Johns will play more than 10 minutes per game.
Oh yeah? How do you know?
Multiple posts? So weird.

Most European students learn how to speak, read and write in several languages.
He likes to be called "Fra" for short.
NOW IS THE TIME ON SPROCKETS WHERE WE DANCE!!
Herr Wagner, I hereby apologize for every time I accidentally refer to you as "Fritz" over the next however many years. It's a Michigan history thing and I am sure it will work itself out with time.
Big Ten dark horse contenders with a Big Ten Freshman of the year candidate!!!
Disagree with Seth on this teams "Sweet 16" projection. Last years team struggled to score and we lost our 2 most effective offensive weapons.
Franz looks solid but he's not going to replace Iggy and Poole's offensive production.
Teams with limited jump shooters and a lack of shot creators typically don't perform well in today's college basketball game.
Hoping for the best but the fanbase needs to be realistic of what this team is....A .500 Big Ten that will need to get quality wins to be on the right side of the bubble.
C'mon Debby Downer. Enjoy a little good news.
Franz will be an improvement over Iggy. Iggy was not a great shot from 3, Franz could be near .500 from outside the 3. I hope Howard can develop another good perimeter shooter to take the place of Poole. For now sweet 16 is a good target over that of just making the tournament and getting bounced in the first or second round. If the younger bench players can develop through the year, then I think Michigan may go further than the sweet 16.
Last years team looked like killers early in the year and then fell off. If late last season Michigan is the target for next year, I think they will reach it. The offense was legitimately bad at times last season. It's not going to be worse than regular 5 minute scoring droughts next year.
I agree that the team won't be as good next year as they were early last year.
Huge pick up. This team is a lock to make the NCAA'S as long as healthy. Go Blue!
Some Jim lovers took away my first 2 points. Get a grip it hasn't worked yet and if he let's Ohio with a new coach come in and beat us it's over.
What the fuck did I just read?
Now you're at negative -5.

DDJ, Castleton, Johns, Nunez off the bench
People are forgetting that we were a better team with Brooks on the court last year over JP, at the end of the season. Plays great defense and can shoot it. As nice as it would be, Livers cant play the three, doesn't have the ball handling for it.
