I am guessing there is a good chance he doesn't come back next year, which puts more pressure on them to win the Championship this year! Although Albrecht looks to be a quality backup, he's still not on the same level.

The PG we have coming in next year Derrick Walton is a top 50 player nationally. He probably won't be as good as Burke next year but with him an Spike are PG play will be solid

Yep, Walton is more highly ranked nationally than either Morris or Burke. It will be interesting to see if he out-performs expectations as did his two immediate predecessors...or in his case, lives up to expectations. If he does, Michigan will have put itself on the map pretty quickly as a PG destination.

Pasadenablue might not have been very eloquent, but this seems like the first good thing Bilas has said about Michigan since Amaker left. It may be a sign that Bilas is capable of being objective when discussing Michigan, but it may be more of an indication that his bosses at ESPN have talked to him about it.
Bilas had a terrible bias against Michigan in the past. While I forgive him for it, I'm not about to believe that it's gone because he says something that is becoming obvious to the rest of the basketball world.

that left a very bad taste; Bilas has continued
to be grudging in his respect for Beilein and the team. Amaker was never as bad as his biggest detractors made out, but it was time for him to move on. Glad Bilas has finally put his big boy pants on, because he embarrassed himself for a while there. And a lot of people took note.

I don't blame anyone for disliking Bilas. He spent years trashing our program and suggesting that our school didn't care about basketball (because a school that cares would keep Amaker around forever, apparently). The guy was a seemingly endless supply of negative recruiting ammunition against us.

btw, I still can't believe that I was more excited about Carlton Brundidge coming to AA than Burke. Thank goodness Beilein is exceedingly smarter than I and recruited both of them.

He may be underappreciated
He may be underappreciated
He may be underappreciated from the standpoint that a lot of people made Burke seem worse than he was when he was debating going pro after last season. It was good that he came back, but he was great towards the stretch last season and he only helped himself in camps during the offseason, which is what I think he would have done had he declared after last season. His size isn't ideal, but people seemed to underrate how skilled he was. Even some analysts didn't see it.
So, I'm glad he came back but it was clear after last season that some people underappreciated him. Not now, though.
When have we underappreciated Trey Burke? I'm wondering what a senior Darius Morris would be today, and what it would do to our PG rotation, and how it would affect Burke's life in general... Life is like a choose your own adventure book. Or is a choose your own adventure book like life?...
"Michigan Defense" is dominating everything, in every aspect of life. That's a rough definition.
