I heard there was going to be an announcement at halftime of this game.

 "Please Michigan fans, recycle your water bottles."

we look awful on offense.  This is sort of Amaker-esque, in terms of just lacking any plan.  They're just passing it around the perimeter.  Then of course the late chuck-up-a-three

some credit as well, they are playing great defense. We knew winning this game was a longshot, still excited about the future of this team though. Just need a little more expierence, before they are ready to beat this kind of team.

The football team had the same issues and no one wanted to hear that argument.  JB has put one team in the tournament....not great. 

This team is young and should get better and I hope they do.  Watching MMB get schooled in Big Ten play every year gets old.

Turn your nose up at making the tournament if you want, but that hadn't been done for a long time before Beilein and it gives him the luxury of the youth excuse this year. Rodriguez came in with higher expectations and unlike Beilein didn't deliver a thing. The analogy sucks.

How many seniors are on this team again? How many juniors? Beilein wasn't brought in with the expectation that he'd make us Kansaslike.

In order Amaker went 11-18, 17-13, 18-11, 13-18, 18-10, and 21-12.  Beilein has gone 10-22 (worst season in school history), 20-13 and 15-17.  I took out postseason play so not to inflate Amaker's great NIT success.  In 3 years Beilein is 21-33 in Big ten play.  Amaker was 23-25 through 3 years.  They both inherited very bad teams.  The facts say you are an idiot my friend.

With most teams, you presume "well if they're shooting this badly now, it has to turn around in the second half because they can't be this bad the whole game."

I'm pretty sure that's not necessarily the case with us.
