Andrew Dakich, Buckeye Basketball Player
https://www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio-state-basketball/2017/11/87699/acro…
Unlike Justin Boren, I do wish him well. He's dedicated his life to basketball and to get one more year to play at the elite college level is something that's hard to turn down, even it's in Columbus. Of course, against Michigan, I hope he lays goose eggs all over the floor.

Andrew Dakich = 4 years and countless hours devoted to the Michigan basketball team + top- flight sideline energy.
Maizeblue11 = reads Michigan sports blog.
I just can't figure out who is the real "Michigan Man".

The most disappointing thing about this isn't the actual post, but that 6 people have actually upvoted it at this point. Wtf is wrong with all of you guys
November 10th, 2017 at 9:15 AM ^
It has to be the same dude with 6 different accounts, right? No way 5 other people in addition to his self upvoting agree with that.

The user base here has been filled with trash people for a while now. I'm not shocked at all.

Oh, so you've never met anyone who did undergrad at Michigan and grad school at MSU or OSU? I know numerous people who did this, who still love Michigan. This is life. They only people who don't understand this reality seem to be of more of the 'walmart' persuasion
November 10th, 2017 at 11:25 AM ^
Hey now! I'm one of these "walmart" wolverines you speak of. Don't lump me in with this neanderthal! Where you came by your fandom does not equate to how you look at a young man making life decisions in his best interest. I hope young Mr. Dakich has a hell of a year for the bucks.
Just not against Michigan.

So you disagree with Coach Beilein, you say?
-----
"I support it 100 percent," Beilein said at Big Ten Media Day. "Andrew paid his way for three-and-a-half years to go to Michigan. We wanted to save a redshirt year for him to be able to go on scholarship somewhere, work on his master’s degree. That was actually the plan. I don’t know if the plan was for him to be a Buckeye, but he grew up in that state, he’s a wonderful young man and we really like Chris (Holtmann) and his staff."

OSU offerred him a scholarship. He didn't grad transfer to walk on to a school. He grad transferred so he can get a full ride schlorship and a good chance to get PT. He has the opportunity to do so at OSU.
November 9th, 2017 at 9:22 PM ^
WTF? Or, ya know, get a scholarship and play in the Big Ten. Plenty of reasons to have some fun with situation but to ask him to walk-on somewhere else is ridiculous.

Nah I'm going to talk to you! This has actually become entertaining reading your poetic thoughts/troll jobs...

No. You're a troll because you're a troll. You have been relentlessly posting every bit of jibberish that comes into your head, to pull yourself out of Bolivian. Once you get enough points to sustain a good negging, here you go again.
You're a fucking troll. Please stop it.

I've been around awhile. You have more "multiple shit posts" in just this thread than Timmmaay has since he joined way back in the day. You'd be better as a lurker.
November 10th, 2017 at 8:55 AM ^
You type like an 8 year old. Holy shit, man.
November 9th, 2017 at 9:55 PM ^
Wow, these new users really do suck.
Go back to 4chan.

...even read the article?
He went to OSU because he's following Holtmann from Butler. Beilein put in a good word with Holtmann and when Holtmann left for OSU, Dakich went with him.
I, for one, applaud the guy for honoring Beilein's willingness to stick his neck out, and for honoring his commitment to Holtmann. Even though it means playing for the mortal enemy.
Anyone who can't appreciate that or wish the guy well needs their head examined.

If you're shitting on Dakich for taking an opportunity to play in the B1G on scholarship, you're a shitty fan, full stop. Andrew Dakich isn't gutter trash pond scum like the Boren family - he burned a redshirt to help the team when we were bombed by injuries and played his ass off in practice helping our guys get better. He's done more for M basketball then all the keyboard tough guys on this thread combined time 1000, so y'all can fuck on outta here as far as I'm concerned.
I hope he has a great time in Columbus and enjoys grad school, actually gets playing time and leads the team in scoring and assists and loses every single game.
November 9th, 2017 at 10:49 PM ^
Burned a redshirt twice, both because we had injury issues. For the team. It had already been established that he would grad transfer his sophomore year.
But he was a team guy. A B1G school wants to give him a scholarship and actually use him in their rotation? Yeah, it gives me a bad taste in my mouth that it's OSU, but they've been terrible and he gets to play real B1G minutes again. Good for him.

Or we're not bothered by a kid taking advantage of the opportunites in front of him. Radical, I know.

Mr. Dakich, you have a choice:
You can have a scholarship and a chance for playing time at a D-1 school. However, if you take it, an anonymous and hostile poster on a blog won't like you.
Take your time, son - we know it's a high price to pay.
