Game thread: Men’s hoops at Vandy, noon EDT on ESPN
Purdue’s loss to Fairleigh Dickinson has consumed a lot of the oxygen from the college hoops “room”.
Michigan returns to the floor in Nashville against the Commodores of Vanderbilt. It’s the second round of the NIT - win or go home / clean out your locker.
A victory today means the third round game will be at Crisler before the semifinals / finals in Vega$.
Go Blue!

Baker to TWill "hold my beer"
March 18th, 2023 at 12:13 PM ^
oof.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:13 PM ^
Yikes. This is falling apart. At least we're not Purdue.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:13 PM ^
Dont worry if Mich get's bounced today, they'll def have a chance to make a deep NIT run next year
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Welcome to what next year will look like. It is going to be ugly as hell. No way they can portal out of this mess.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Guys don't know where to be on defense in multiple possessions.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Michigan wins by double digits today because my hangover said so.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Baker is a walking mistake sometimes.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
It’s one thing to have no scoring options. It’s another to give up the same wide open 3 to their best shooter for the 3rd time smh
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Nice preview of what life without Kobe will be like next year. Bottom feeder in the Big Ten
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Turning off this is going to be UGLY seen enough of this this year..Juwan Howard is CLUELESS..bye
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Sadly, this could be Michigan next year. Not something any of us want to see. Disappointment
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Remember, if/when Jett and Kobe leave, this plus a few freshmen is Michigan’s roster next year (with the possible exception of Dickinson).
March 18th, 2023 at 12:17 PM ^
I would expect them to hit the portal pretty hard. They can promise a lot of playing time to any 4 or guard.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Oh so Kobe is leaving.
What a waste of a season. They're going to get blown out and end a terrible season terribly, sucks.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Juwan must hate Reed
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
Juwan discovers there’s a problem after 14 points, many from wide open shots.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
17 straight from Vandy.
This is somewhere between pitiful and hilarious.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:14 PM ^
The test pattern time out has really turned this game around for Vandy.
Good job on that one.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:15 PM ^
T Will playing like our 2nd best player… gonna be a long game
March 18th, 2023 at 12:15 PM ^
Not sure the PBP knows what a “jumper” is.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:15 PM ^
Michigan getting destroyed. This is pathetic. Good riddance Kobe and Jett.
Me before the Team.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:19 PM ^
You are mad that two kids with promising futures are not willing to risk further injury for a meaningless game?
March 18th, 2023 at 12:20 PM ^
Super unfair to Kobe.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:16 PM ^
You know its bad when TWill has 29% of the points and Yo Yo has 43% of the points.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:18 PM ^
You know its bad when we only have 10 points no matter who is scoring them.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:16 PM ^
We really want Baker back??
March 18th, 2023 at 12:17 PM ^
It depends upon who else might take that spot. We aren't exactly loaded with talent.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:16 PM ^
Crisler staff must have informed the team that they don't really want to host another game this year. No chance without Kobe today.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:16 PM ^
michigan is racing itself: can they have more turnovers than points.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:17 PM ^
Will they be interrupting the commercials with the game?
March 18th, 2023 at 12:17 PM ^
Are folks still confident that this team is better without Jett?
March 18th, 2023 at 12:17 PM ^
Yes but worse without Kobe.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:19 PM ^
Meh, team is ass with or without him...maybe his dad will leave after this season with him, that should make the team better.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:17 PM ^
Manjon is on the bench getting a rest but Dug doesn't have that choice. Ugh.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:19 PM ^
‘I hurt my ankle’ may just be the chic way to declare for the NBA draft
March 18th, 2023 at 12:19 PM ^
When it takes a Herculean effort just to get two points...
March 18th, 2023 at 12:19 PM ^
I’ve come full circle on Twill. He can be an average rotation guy if he plays within what his role should be which is essentially to play defense and rebound. He should not be shooting threes.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:19 PM ^
Dug!
March 18th, 2023 at 12:20 PM ^
Twill fighting!
March 18th, 2023 at 12:20 PM ^
Dug has struggled to finish this year, that was nice.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:20 PM ^
T Will owns the offensive glass. Baker just makes offensive plays that offend me.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:21 PM ^
Baker with the no look rocket to TWill's face!
March 18th, 2023 at 12:21 PM ^
I'll say this about Jace, unlike his brother, he does hustle.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:21 PM ^
Michigan will need to hit on at least 3 portal guys next year if this is the roster.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:21 PM ^
TWill and WillT on the floor together
March 18th, 2023 at 12:22 PM ^
Carry me, Dug.
March 18th, 2023 at 12:22 PM ^
Dug going to be a problem for the B1G for the next three years!
March 18th, 2023 at 12:22 PM ^
Team's got fight left in them. That's for sure
March 18th, 2023 at 12:22 PM ^
Dug going to be nasty next year
