Seriously, if we hadn't made the hire, I would be losing my fucking mind right now.
Get better, Caris. And come back stronger in 2015?
January 18th, 2015 at 3:05 PM ^
Fuck all the things
January 18th, 2015 at 3:05 PM ^
Maybe he comes back next year?

Hopefully.

If he does come back next year, this team will be a top ten team with a great chance of making the Final Four. They will have Duncan Robinson. They will actually have their entire team back except for Bielfeld, IIRC. They will have the memory of what is turning out to be a disappointing season fresh in their minds for motivation.
It looks like the growth curve is about to accelerate for a lot of young players. I still think there is an outside chance of this team making the NCAA Tournament, but the odds have obviously become a lot greater.
Good luck to Caris LeVert and may he have a speedy and full recovery, whatever he decides to do next.

Unless we get some big time recruit(s), we're nowhere near a Final4 team. Maybe a fringe top25 team. Our recruiting has been abysmal. It looks like Dawkins and MAAR are better than Chatman and Donnal.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:40 PM ^
Way too early to say it. Youth and early departure has finally caught up to Michigan.
Chatman was a 5* recruit with Wilson as a high 4*. Zak Irvin was a 5* with Walton as a high 4*. FOH with that statement.
JB landed Teske a high 4* recruit for class of 2016. Michigan is in play for Jaylen Brown who will be visiting the team and is a 2015 recruit. They're in a lot of 2016 prospects
January 18th, 2015 at 3:44 PM ^
there will still be very little production at the #4 or #5 position. and levert is very likely done here.
2016-17 has a chance to compete for the BIG title, assuming good production out of doyle and wilson.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKK.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
This sucks, to say the least.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
Holly shit. Wow this team is going to be almost unwatchable the rest of the season. The only upside is maybe he doesn't go pro now but who knows.

the only thing that may be postive out of a mostly crap situation. It was going to be a slog even with Caris, but surely they're going to take their lumps now. Can they learn and grow from them in order to position themselves for next year? Let's hope. Pressures and expectations for balance of this year will be low, so maybe that will help them play freely.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
When does football start?
January 18th, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
He was having a great year. I hope he heals and gets back to his top level. On a positive note, does that mean he stays next year?...Please mean that.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
Well fuck...seriously that's awful for him and the team. Wasn't expecting to make the tourney anyhow but this sucks...
January 18th, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
Welp...
January 18th, 2015 at 3:06 PM ^
Game over. Season over. Bringing everyone back next year and adding Robinson. Let's get the young guys some run and brace for a big push in the 2015-16 season.

2015!!!!
January 18th, 2015 at 3:07 PM ^
Goodnight, sweet prince.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:07 PM ^
Time to tear up the NIT! Step up Mr. Dawkins. Get well soon Caris.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:09 PM ^
NIT? There was a good chance weren't making that even with Caris. No chance now.

No way they are finishing over .500 now.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:08 PM ^
Hopefully he comes back.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:08 PM ^
Maybe the rest of the team will step up and pick up the slack and will become a better team?

Fuckity fuck.
Speedy recovery Caris
January 18th, 2015 at 3:09 PM ^
any shot at making the tournament. It'll be a battle to make the NIT
January 18th, 2015 at 3:09 PM ^
That's not possible. Michigan State is the only team in the country that deals with injuries.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:09 PM ^
So terrible. This team needs him so badly.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:09 PM ^
This will be even more of a rebuilding year than it already was. It'll be interesting to see if Beilein can get something out of Chatman and if Irvin steps up. Hope Caris has a full recovery and comes back strong next year. He seems like a great guy and was the most reliable player we had.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:10 PM ^
Next man up. It's time to step up, guys. It's your time now.
Don't let any injury define this season.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:10 PM ^
I think he had too much on his plate. When you damn near lead your team in every major stat that means you need some fucking help. Best wishes for a successful rehab.
January 18th, 2015 at 3:11 PM ^

Caris doesn't deserve this, he's a great kid and almost certainly gone after this year. So sad to see it end like this. Ohio state can go f themselves.

Great line from a great movie.
The LeVert news really sucks, though.
