A little surprised at all the Donnal hate here. He didn't do anything spectacular but I thought he played solid, not to mention those tap-outs that save possessions. Think he will be getting consistent run while the true frosh adapt..
Also was that not the weirdest 21pts ever by LeVert - I was shocked to see he scored that much as it looked like he was struggling most of the game. Kid fills up a stat sheet more quietly than most. His attempts at penetration this year are a little slow/deliberate (giggity)
Thinking we will win this game. I have to ask - what makes anyone think that? Honestly curious, not trying to be a dick...anything besides "gonna be fired up after week of turmoil"?
Rutgers seems to be about the talent level of Minn/Utah (who demolished us at home) if not better. And we're on the road. And Hoke is still somehow "coaching" this team
Michigan will get its patented 1st drive field goal, and nothing else
I don't even care if the players hate the fans now. Something...ANYTHING...to get them motivated and show some passion and fight on the field. Dark times, these
..why are we the only team on earth that cannot successfully run plays to counter such an over-aggressive defensive scheme? We seem to be the only team where "blitz them to oblivion" is consistently successful for the other team
StubHub cannot list/sell student tickets, and I think that applies to most of the other StubHub-esque sites as well.
I got Section 33 for PSU game from VividSeats knowing how close that is to student section, and will be quite pissed if I need a student ticket validation
Where are all the PF/C targets that could get us over the hump against huge teams like 13-14 Kentucky? And why are more bloggers not panicking and running around screaming about it?
...every MBB recruiting post is just MOAR guards. Or if a big is mentioned, it's a "guy who can step out and hit the J" as opposed to "dominant force on the block." I realize it's not Beilein's style, but its as if having a bunch of good shooters/finesse players is mutually exclusive to having a banger/rebounder/shot-blocker down low.
"You'd think that they'd move the other direction since they're so young and hypothetically getting better faster than older teams who are closer to a full grasp of what their coach wants them to do."
Maybe not, when what your coach seems to want to do is have the bigs hedge so hard on ball screens that they end up chasing a guard 30 feet from the hoop, leading to a wide open three or a late rotation on a layup, also leading to a potential 3pts. Love Beilein, still don't get this....

Nobody makes me genuinely laugh through the pain and misery quite like BiSB. Too many great self loathing one-liners to quote here.
Gold, Jerry! Gold!
