Thanks for posting, I had a topic ready to go but didn’t want to double post! Good luck to Howard, still a legend here with some early success as a coach, just went south too fast. No clue who to look for as a replacement but basketball seems to be easier to rebuild than football if we can find the right guy. 

Just fired him

Can still slack off during March madness, if anything it helps my place a couple meager bets using my brain instead of my heart, worked out well for me last year

A talented PG who can spell minutes and make Dug think twice about shot selection, a 2 guard who can defend and is a bit of a Jack of all trades like Abdur-Rahkman, a 3 and D PF, a big ten caliber stretch 3/4 as well as a big 4 that can bang and spell Reed in a pinch, and a big goon 5 than can board and rebound to back up Reed full time. So a whole new roster

No, would only be a cash grab and lead to many undeserving teams to be included.

I always think of a girl I went to highschool with born on leap day, she is turning 9 today, and I also see Michigan Hockeys very own Phillipe LaPointe is turning 6!

I think he would have been better suited in the modern era where small speedy guys have a larger role than the lengthy go get it types, but I was fairly young during his nfl days so I could be wrong

Stopping shitting on Juwan…

Stopping shitting on Juwan. I agree it’s most likely time for him to go, but it has to be handled in a way that we don’t sever the relationship with anyone pre 1995 associated with Michigan basketball. Culture matters and part of that culture is the fab five and the 80s. It’s ok to say “let’s move on from Howard” without saying “fuck this clown” etc. You all think you love Michigan hoops more than him? You don't. This is a hard task but we need to find a way to part with him, respect his legacy as both a coach and one of our best players ever, and also move on. This fanbase at times is as toxic as the staff itself. I would love to get new young blood in here but basketball more than any other sport is going to be turbulent for non blue bloods in this modern era. Ride the wave and support the team, and in due time there will be Maize and blue skies. Go blue

This team is so strange, another first half lead and this time against number 11 in the country. College Basketball is an odd and fickle beast if you’re not a blue blood

Best post on the topic yet and if anybody asks me what I think I’ll simply send them this post. Thanks for the insightful input, I’m not sure many on this board or in other walks of life have a better grasp of the topic.

These are all fantastic and many are on my list too. But I also add losing to Duluth in overtime in 2011, my heart fucking sank. Also not a big baseball or softball guy, but the baseball loss to vandy was tough since it was such a run, and softball losing to Florida in title games. These felt like all Michigan athletics would always be the bridesmaid never the bride.

Damn double post! Neg me, that said, I agree that money wasn’t Hunters sole or even main reason for leaving

Great video, thanks for the post OP.

sorry to post here but certainly didn’t want a new thread. I know mgoblog will be (hopefully?) making a coffee table book. But did anyone here order the one from the Freep? I don’t like to support them but it looks like it could be really cool.

Yes and No.

Yes and No. 

go Lions, chargers can be my AFC rooting interest with little to no emotional investment. And sadly I don’t see it coming together for the chargers to get there, the people who say how talented and close they are… are they?

The glaring reality lost in…

The glaring reality lost in all this is that the bball team was a sacrifice to the sports gods for football. The 97 Bulls would go 11-21 as that is the prophecy 

He’s not wrong about most of…

He’s not wrong about most of them and how the program is being run right now. Some of these kids have heart and obviously Howard knows and loves that M and Michigan but something isn’t translating. Also sometimes it is just talent, I loved playing bball and played with pride and passion for my school team but I was just an average player and we lost a lot, I would have not liked someone calling out my heart instead of my results, that I can handle. Wish he went about it a different way, but hopefully coach can shut all the doors and just go to work to turn it around, we saw it happen at schembechler.

If I would have read your post first I wouldn’t have typed mine below. Couldn’t agree more!

I’m excited for the expansion and happy as hell Michigan got one before things get even harder. In my opinion the most annoying thing about college football has always been the talk of “UGa would have beat M this year!” Expansion provides opportunity and I hope it quiets that talk down once people realize that there are realistically 6-10 teams that could win these top games. Alabama almost did and could have beat us, Ohio state could have beat us, , hell Penn state had a chance. They didnt, but on an alternate weekend they could have. How often does the overall 1 seed win the entire dance in March madness? This should help spread the parody to 10 teams instead of 4.

I see so many advertised…

I see so many advertised from creep and det news so I’m really hoping and waiting for the mgoblog version instead. Needs to be large hard cover coffee table book style

My buddy ordered a hat about 2 minutes after the game and he got it on Friday. I ordered a few days after and have not heard anything yet but the order said estimated around the 27th

I’m ok with it I guess, it’s going to be a rebuild anyways why not let Juwan have one more crack at being the guy to do it. Not to mention if you ship him out the Fab 5 is going to be mad at the program again and then there is more discontent between the past and future. Look at football the way the 97 team was on hand in Houston, all former players are a part of that, bball needs it too. That said, I’m probably just still happy and ok with the bad results to do an event that took place January 8th, 2024. Hope they can get the bball team on track again.

Best football year in this state ever? Hope the lions can keep it going. I hope they don’t feel like this is the accomplishment like M did by simply making the playoffs. Nfl is a different beast, have to seize the opportunity

I went to Meijer today and my wife had to talk me out of buying an ugly throw blanket and ugly coffee cup and remind me of $200 of gear in the mail. We then went to dinner and someone already had his champs hoodie and immediately regretted not buying that ugly coffee cup
