Thank you, Seniors.

This really can't be said enough. I would argue that these seniors are no less impressive than the football class of seniors that just left us. Thank you Zack and Stu...it's really hard to believe that that was their last home game. The 2008-09 run to the tourney feels like it was only yesterday. 

This was obviously not the outcome that anybody, let alone Zack and Stu, was looking for, but I feel pretty confident that these seniors will take it upon themselves to make sure that the sting of this loss doesn't linger longer than it needs to. There are still quite a few games to win. 

both basketball and hockey! Make this tournament run (both teams) one to remember!!! GO BLUE

I know we have some great (great) talent coming in next year but I have a bad feeling there is going to be some regression, at least early in the year. I really hope that Vogrich is able to step up and Smotty can continue to improve because we will need it.

They were the poured concrete foundation for this program and will be forever remembered as such.

And they won for us!

If there is anything sad about our recent success and awesome recruiting classes, it is that we won't have another Zack or Stu. As much as I'm thrilled to be locking up top recruits like McGary, I'll miss these kinds of success stories. I wish we could have sent them out with a win.

Novak is one of those guys 20 years from now, no one will remember except the people who actually watched the games. He played the hardest, guarded guys 5-6 inches taller than him every night and held his own, and we'll always have what should be referred to as "The Zack Novak Game" where it was Novak who led Michigan to their first win at the Breslin Center in 15+ years.

Stu, man, I've given you crap over the years for frustrating turnovers and poor shot selection, but you gave a damn just like Novak did.

Congrats to the Seniors!

I'm happy that these young men have been fine examples of student-athletes for 4 years and are going to graduate.  I wish them nothing but the best.

Sad because I'm going to miss watching them both.

My son is 14 and has been a rabid Novak fan since he played elementary basketball.  He totally patterns his game from him right down to having a shooting guard body but playing power forward.  His HS team is getting new uniforms next year and he has convinced the coach to get a "0" jersey.  Initially his coach was against it, but after seeing and learning about Mr Novak (coach is an ACC fan) he is allowing it.

I'm trying to find decent tickets to the PSU game so that we can say goodbye with a win.

Why does nobody ever think to thank the señors?

Zack and Stu need something etched in stone in Crisler.  Doesn't need to be flashy; just a permanent reminder of their contribution to the program.

Queme los barcos.
