I'm really happy for these kids.  I know we all like to criticize the play at times this year, but all these Kidd play their hearts out.  They deserve a chance go keep playing.

I get frustrated when we don't play up to what I hope, but seeing this just pleases me so much. Beilein has a smile that I just can't be mad at! Go Blue guys, can't wait to see them play!

Player interviews afterwards said that Chatmas was the most nervous, and then when it was announced, the most excited - understanding that his shot brought them to the dance. It was described that Chatman "was basically tackled" by everyone. I didn't see it in this video, but I imagine after the first excitment and jumping became more focused, they all celebrated around Chatman. Good for the kid. Hope this really helps his confidence going into next year.... AND THIS YEAR REMAINING!

Really cool moment for the guys.  A lot of adversity and rotten luck player health wise last two years.  

They earned it and deserve it.

You know, we did rather a lot of analysis and hand-wringing over our NCAA tournament chances for weeks, but I can't imagine all the what-if scenarios that must go through the minds of the team, so to see the happiness in that room was very nice indeed.

It was great to see them get a shot last night, and the best part of that for me was not having to find out via CBS as the bracket had been leaked by then.

wins and losses, but these videos are the ones where I really love Belein.  You can tell he genuinely loves his players and continues to say that he is just proud of his team for getting into the tournament which is a common message for him this time of year.

decision to be made. They lost almost an entire class to early departures, their starting backcourt to injuries last season and two seniors this year. They won 6 more games this season last and are moving in the right direction. I agree that they need to figure out how to turn some near misses on recruiting around but there is absolutely no reason for Beilein to be on the hot seat.
