Wagner to NBA

His letter on the Players Tribune was fantastic. You could almost hear him talking as you read it, because it encapsulated his energy and personality. I feel much more satisfied about his decision hearing him articulate his thought process. Talk about a person who absolutely maximized his college experience in three years. I think he is making the right choice for him. I wish him great success in the NBA. He will be up there with the Michigan greats in my mind, and I’m grateful for all the many memories that he has given us. Best wishes to the one and only Victor Moritz Wagner!

Somewhere staee fans are all heaving a sigh of relief. Good luck Moe!

Danke Schoen Moe

 

 

for a great ride...and continue to do what you do.

Man, it hurts to see players leave, even when it's expected.

Thanks Mo

Would love to see the Warriors draft him in the late 20s he woulod be a perfect fit at Center for the Warriors,they have some very good defenders (so he wouldnt be needed as a defensive player) and he would get 3-4  three point attemots per game

Thanks for everything Moe!

2 Big Ten Tournement Championships

2 Sweet Sixteens

A Final Four Victory

Appearance in the National Title Game

1,000 points in his Michigan career

Not a whole lot of resumes better than that. Go Blue and good luck Wagner!

If he went to the Mavs and got to play under Dirk during his final season

Thanks Mo. You were such a great player and an even better role model. Good luck on everything going forward. You’ll be outstanding.

My guess is Matthews comes back seeing an opportunity to be a star next to Poole next season and play himself into a sure 1st round pick. Lotta offense to replace next year.

Loved Hanging Out & Talking With THIS TEAM & Their families in The Bahamas @ Battle 4 Atlantis... Sat Courtside & Yelled Flint MC Breed's Lyrics to Mo, "Mo Money Mo Money Mo" He always had the biggest grin in response. Good Luck & Thank You. Thanks For Your Thoughtful Letter, Most of All. Heartfelt, Passionate, Thoughtful.....Just As You Are, and The Way You Played

Mo , tell your brother to reclassify to 2020 :)

Go get 'em, Moseph.

Even Coach Beilein made a point of saying what a special person he is, and how much he enjoys having him around.

Best of luck Moe - you will certainly be missed.

We got all we could’ve asked for out of Mo this year! He came back and took us on a magical Final 4 run most us will not soon forget. Plus, now he can afford to replace Raftery’s glasses that he broke.

Thanks for the memories, Moe. You made the most of your time here and are one hell of a player. Now go get paid.

Viel glück mein freund.

I do wish him the best, and can not fault him in leaving to the nba....     But, will he even go first round?    And I can't see him getting much playing time in his first year or maybe even two?    I do feel he will develop into a starting NBA player, but just seems like the upside of staying was greater.   Of course injury is a factor, but would take a rare and major injury to be a factor.   He could have played and matured (mental and physically) in a national spotlight and likely inproved his draft stock and thus gained a few million had he came back for another year.

Like I said, I feel he will develop into a decent NBA player, but in a couple years.    Sitting the bench most of the time in the NBA seems like it would really be frustrating if you have the passion for the game that he shows.    I guess that could have been the case even if he stayed another year, but if he was able to improve his draft status to top 15 or so next year, then it also would have gotten him more NBA mins as well.

Well, its sad to see him go but wish him the best and I am looking forward to watching him which ever team he ends up on.

That article says it all right there. Went out like a champ. Loved cheering for him. He was the backbone of the team, so much character.

Incredibly eloquent letter in his second language.  Wish him the best with everything. Feel like we saw him grow up some before our very eyes, but there is also no doubt he came to Ann Arbor with a lot of tools and a great head on his shoulders.  Will always appreciate his love for Michigan. 

 

thanks for the Memories Moe! go get your money!

Vielen dank, Moe Fußknöchelbrecher. Viel glück im NBA.

The last couple of paragraphs and tying the crazy dreams back to sharing a court with Dirk, must have gotten kind of dusty in here, my eyes are killing me. Weird.
