Offense is a major concern though. I'm just thinking they all need more time, none wil leave to the NBA early, and we'll be a damned good team next year.

Confidence in their shots and defensive intensity will be the diference between winning and losing big10games this year.

in the half. But this team is still shooting a lot of atroucious shots because it's rushing everything. You've got to force the defense to collapse in order to shoot the three or you will get nothing but contested shots. Force the defense to react and not anticipate, and you will score.

Michigan is disrupting the passing lanes. I ilke the idea of switching up from man. Beilein ought to do more of that. They are getting beat off of offensive rebounds. That is the difference in this game.

reminds me of the 91-92 teams.  coming off a nat'l title and elite 8 run, the team lost a lot of talent to graduation.  then struggled a couple years until the fab 5 arrived.  unfortuneately, we don't have any fab 5 caliber players on the horizon.

The 91-92 team was the first year of the Fab Five. The 89-90 team got torched by Loyola in the second round, and it was the worst defeat suffered by a defending national champion. The only team during the 80s and 90s that reached the elite 8 was the 93-94 team, with all but Webber back.

Feel free to look it up.

I said it before and got negged--LeVert is not impressive this year. There was so much hype for him to make the leap and lead this team. He just doesn't command the game the way that Burke and Stauskus did.

have all regressed. None of them can shoot or handle the ball with consistency. I am shocked by how poor this team plays. I really was expecting much more this year.

  Not just all things, but everything.

 

  There's no way that they can possibly announce Harbaugh until Jan 1, because we can't have anything good in 2014.  I'm fearful that by posting meetings on Dec 22 and Dec 28 it guarantees us disappointment.

 

  Hey look... another missed shot.  There's probably a good episode of Dora the Explorer to watch.

I came here to say something negative, but it's all been overdone before.  This team shouldn't be that bad when it's all said and done.  I think an NCAA tourney bid is still likely and this team needs a season changing moment like a comeback win today. Go Blue!
