Beilein is passionate about winning it all

Submitted by GoBluePhil on March 19th, 2017 at 4:24 PM

You can see and hear how bad he wants to win more games in the tournament. He is keeping this team loose and is pushing all the right buttons. Go luck and GoBlue!!http://www.umhoops.com/2017/03/19/video-john-beilein-recaps-win-louisvi…

...about winning it all, too. Fortunately for us there is absolutely nothing I can do to effect that outcome.

He is the purest kind of coach; the 'Willow Run Incident' has given him a final dimension that is pure love for the game the kids and the fans...'the basketball life'

Really neat listening to Beilein talk about how he wants to win a championship b/c his peers that he started coaching with have won championships themselves.

Mentions Calipari, Wright and Pitino. Don't hear that kind of motivation out in the open often.

After the final buzzer, you can see him smiling and mouthing "How about that." Given where the team was only 2-3 months ago, he should be freaking proud of these guys as we all are. Pretty proud of our Coach too.

GO BLUE!!

Do you guys remember a few years back when Dave Brandon said he wanted our Athletic programs to be like Ohio State's....? Without him at the helm....mission accomplished! It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!

Incorrect - our department still has its ethical integrity. That is worth more (to me at least) than wins (wins being a close runner-up).

It's the only thing in his career he hasn't accomplished. It's still out there for us.

I'll agree with this. After the half, they started setting up and feeding Wagner. They changed the offense to go through the post instead of the arc. They beat L'Ville at thier own game. A thing of beauty!!

Agreed. 4 years ago in the final we didn't have that inside presence in our game. McGary and Morgan in the post were great but nowhere near as dangerous as Mo and DJ with their moves

McGary was a better low post player with great size. I think we lost to a bad call on the block shot by Tre Burke when he pinned it to the back board. It was Karma. Notice how Beliein said Michigan was a "Clean" program? I dont think he meant it as a jab but the irony.

Congrats to U of M B.B. and especially the coach who has taken a beating from the fans but continues to make the worry-warts eat crow. This team continues to amaze me.
