If this shit continues, this could be like the 1990-91 season.
I have a feeling that game at duke could be like that one where Demetrius Calip was wide open on a dunk, nobody within 15 feet of him, and somehow he missed it. Microcosm of that season.
I don't think it will. If there was a mass exodus with Trey, THJ, GR3 and McGary leaving for the NBA last year, oy that would be bad.
We have a long way to go and if there is anything I've learned from John Beilein Michigan Basketball, it's that things can start out rough early but blossom into something nice.

Oh, and while I share some pessimism about this year's team, this year will be MUCH better than that year

Your forgot about Rich McIver's hair. That was definitely a highlight of '91.

The stat of the game probably has to be the effective FG% of 35.23% from Michigan, which is still a bit short of Charlotte's also somewhat unimpressive 43.94%. Nobody was really shooting that well, but we were shooting worse. Beyond that, some of the other major stats for the game were reasonably comparable.

We're at the point now where we can't be confident that football or basketball will win regardless of the quality of the opponent, and that's a real bummer.

State. Let's not be overly pessimistic.

Michigan lost to a Division 2 school: Alaska-Anchorage, in the 1988-89 season.
That may be one of the biggest upsets in college basketball history next to UVA losing to Chaminade in the early 80s. But nobody remembers or talks about it because Michigan finished pretty well that year.

Ya Mon, da happy weed...Glad the boys could have some fun in the sun. All three of the games were good preparation for the big10 season and beyond. Tonight's loss would have been no big deal except it follow Hoke's follies and the Same old Lions. At least the hoops team has no coaching issues.

Tom Brady deserves a big win after getting robbed last game.

Makes you think this team can beat Duke or Arizona? They are having trouble handing no name players that couldn't get a scholarship to a real program. How are they going to stop Jabari Parker and Aaron Gordon?
November 25th, 2013 at 7:05 AM ^
Like Vermont?

All the ticky tack foul calls are going to kill college basketball.
