NEWS: Michigan freshman guard George Washington III plans to enter the transfer portal, he tells
Deion Sanders has experience with this very situation.
The new coach is going to have to bring in a whole lotta guys.
It's not just lack of talent or even playing guys out of position. Just a few players seemed to show signs of improvement AND actually balled out most of the time. Reed and Will are the only two guys I felt played hard and as well as expected. TWII could have been a decent role player under JB and deserves some praise for putting in the hard work (most games were 30+).
Otherwise, this team played without a sniff of fundamentals and at times just seemed to be standing around and letting guys wide open for 3s or coast-to-coast lay-ups
Dug???? Would love for a new coach to come in and sell him on how good he can be but also get on his back for lackadaisical play.
Literally need a whole new team don't we?
Who is realistically coming back? It is mentioned above that Chedder is most likely leaving and thought heard the same for TWill, Dug is gone for sure, would Reed really come back? Not sure who is able/left to return for another year or wants to

Yes, every rotation player was fine to be on the roster, and would be helpful next year. I’m sure Washington would be a fine 8-9 rotation guy. Everyone else would be, as well. This group lacked a couple of guys who could go get a basket and depth in the front court.
I get it but don’t get it. Barely got minutes, it developed…with a new coach and fitted roster he clearly has a great chance to step up.
I don’t think so Tim
I'm fine if everyone goes.
Yea there isn’t a single player that is a must keep. Pretty much says it all about the end of the Juwan era.
This team will be terrible. Start with that as a baseline.
Well, ripping off the bandaid is always painful, but it is better than the slow pull...
He epitomizes the season. What appears to be a kid with talent, he played poorly and showed zero improvement throughout the year.
I expect the vast majority of the roster to turn over.
Which isn't a bad thing, a lot of these guys should be in great situations going forward.
Absolutely wish him (and the anticipated others) all the best.
They now have 3 players total left from the last 3 classes.
The final straw was when Warde chopped down Juwan's cherry tree.
This Washington couldn't tough it out at Valley Forge.
Funny Bit of trivia: it appears GW3 is 2 inches shorter than OG GW.
He must be pretty old
It's okay, let 'em all transfer. The important thing is to get the right coach to rebuild the culture and the program.
Whatever's gonna happen is gonna happen. Next year is obviously kind of a continued-sacrifice-to-the-football-gods write off anyway.
