Sometimes you have to eat a poop sandwich

Words of wisdom from Carolina's captain Justin Williams after their loss to Boston last night. I think that applies to our situation pretty well.

I disagree with that, completely.  We return two All BIG caliber players in Simpson and Teske, Livers was pretty much our most consistent player and shooter last year and he comes back, and we are bringing in a strong class if there is no attrition from it (which I don't expect there to be). Brooks flashed at the end of last year too and I am interested in how he will develop.  He was only a sophomore. 

We also have a good deal of highly touted talent on the bench that Beilien flat-out did not work to develop last year, and given his departure along with the other players leaving the way they did, I think Beilein was kind of checked out last season and was not that invested in our bench development.

I also think that both Teske and Castleton can be effective post big men in more conventional offenses and I look forward to seeing that, and hopefully see it create some open looks for other guys.

Beilein was a fantastic coach and did a great job at Michigan but his coaching style had its limitations.  His roster management (and player management with the auto-bench) was pretty putrid last year.  None of this takes away from what he did here but I think he left partially because he had already checked out and was not giving the team his best.

I think that we will have a good team next year with a new offensive look and be a second weekend tournament team once again.

Serious question - in a shit sandwich is the shit the bread? and if so what's in between? Normal sandwich fixiings? or is the shit on  two pieces of bread? Having trouble understanding here. 

and before you ask it IS relevant because Beilein and subs. so there.

This board is going to be hellscape for a few more days huh?
