When someone finds it, please post here - or video after the fact.
We be cutting down the nets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EDIT:
MGoUser points out the CBS already has the replay up (fastest of all the games I've seen so far) and it includes the cutting of the nets!
Wondering why they did not show it on TV. Sucks cuz I have never seen M do it.
Looks like they're letting all the seniors cut the net. Pretty sweet
They just showed Stauskas cuttong his thread off on CBS. - EDIT nope wasn't Stauskas.
Vogrich.
I have a couple videos of it on my phone but I have no clue how to upload them on here.
There? jealous. Upload to Youtube directly from your phone - and then post here.
Thanks.
Will do when I get home. Should be about 30
Yeah, I'm so glad for these seniors especially. And for Beilein - what a man to lead our team and represent our university and to mentor our young men!
Go Blue!
The CBS sports livestream showed the whole ceremony. The seniors went first, follwed by the rest of the team, and lastly Coach B.
Not sure if you can still get it if you replay the game, but I just left it on my browser and they cut to it after some commercials. Two things I saw:
1. Right before the trophy award ceremony, Beilein is organizing the team and switches the bill of Tim Hardaway's hat from backward to forward.
2. After everyone cut a piece of the net down, Beilein cuts the rest of the net down and climbs down the ladder, whereupon the team forces him to put the net around his neck. Beilein does this for about 2 seconds, starts looking uncomfortable in the spotlight, and gives the net to Hardaway.
This team seems like a family.
Michigan man.... Never above the TEAM!! I love it
It was live on NCAA.com. Seniors went first then the whole team and finally Coach B. Very Michigan Man like. Hopefully someone captured it.
That's always how it goes, Seniors first, Coach last, everyone else in between
What is up with Vogrich playing the chello???
F you CBS. I don't care for any opinions of your commentators. I want to see the best Michigan Basketball team of the last twenty years to cut down the damn nets.
cbssports.com already has the replay up, including the ceremony at the end...
They had subs. It was crazy!
You got to give the people what they want!!!
Seeing the seniors was just the greatest moment. I love rewarding seniors on days like this!
I hope they put those t-shirts that the guys were wearing for sale. Gotta get one so I can have a companion to my Pour Some Sugar On Me shirt from two y ears ago.
Already on MDEN along with a few other ones.
Or was it preordained from the moment they left the hardware store?
Whatever happens, win or lose, Ima so happy for B--------, great job coach, u deserve it, Go Blue!!!!!!
Where is this mythical net cutting down video, because CBSSports just has interviews?
Check out UMHoops.com. Dylan has some videos from the floor for most of the players, allthough, it ins't uninterupted videos, as far as I can tell.
If you want anything about this game, UMHoops.com is the place to go...Period
How many loops are in a basketball net? Do teams ever have too many guys for them each to cut off a bit?
The entire time, I was praying that no one would fist pump too hard and fall backwards off the ladder. Most nervous I felt the whole game.
Have a couple up, including Beilein wearing the net.
....here is that video. Glorious, I tell you.
It was crazy
Not video, but @UMichBBall has a few photos on their stream.
Josh Bartelstein the first to cut a piece:
