4 guys miss the loose ball and then foul the guy that got it. SMH
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:24 PM ^
If there's any hope of beating the spread we need to win these non-Edey minutes but early signs are not good
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:24 PM ^
Purdue's offensive rebounding without Edey on the floor is embarrassing. For us, I mean.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:25 PM ^
Purdue is going ugly early. For once I’m not too upset that the game is on Peacock and that I don’t subscribe.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:25 PM ^
Reed is the worst starter for Michigan in 10 years
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:25 PM ^
Purdue is bullying Michigan. It’s like the Varsity squad facing off vs JV team. This season can be over. I want Juwan to be good so bad but I think it’s time. This hurts to watch.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:26 PM ^
Big ten officials are just horrible.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:26 PM ^
Reed really needs to hit the weight room
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:31 PM ^
Too bad we alienated the country’s best strength and conditioning guy in hoops.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:39 PM ^
You do not slight Prince Jace in the Michigan Basketball Country Club
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:50 PM ^
Was he? Last few years didn’t seem very impressive at all. Might be another guy made by beilein
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:26 PM ^
The offense is more hilariously inept than usual.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:26 PM ^
How many of our guys would even play good minutes for Purdue? 1? 2?
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:30 PM ^
Maybe Olivier... maybe.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:31 PM ^
Mayyyybe Dug too. But they'd teach him to take care of the ball or he wouldn't play.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:30 PM ^
You could say that for half the teams in the big ten.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:26 PM ^
This is ugly
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:27 PM ^
Who has the bigger clown shoes, Burnett or Williams?
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:28 PM ^
On the bright side, my Peacock stream is buffering constantly, per usual.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:30 PM ^
If no one is able to watch this game ... did it happen?
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:37 PM ^
That's too deep for me. I'm drinking heavily.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:29 PM ^
So glad most of America can't watch this
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:30 PM ^
Our guys look out of shape (hands on knees), undisciplined (Burnett jacking up logo three misses) and bullied (getting absolutely wiped on the glass by guys who just seem to want it more). If coach can’t get guys who stay motivated and show better than this no matter what, that is final nail. This is bad. Predictable, but it looks worse than it is.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:30 PM ^
Oof. This is hard to watch.
Go, Blue.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:39 PM ^
You can say that again.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:30 PM ^
Oof. This is hard to watch.
Go, Blue.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:31 PM ^
If Purdue hadn't missed their last 8 this would be even uglier.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:33 PM ^
Sorry, no chicken for you fuckers.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:34 PM ^
I didn't fully understand the promo there. If Tschetter missed both FTs they get free chicken tenders from somewhere or something?
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:33 PM ^
Well, Edey has figured out how to beat Reed now.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:34 PM ^
Llewellyn is....not good.
Juwan's roster management, substitution patterns, end of game strategies, are just a few of the issues with the program under his watch.
When the Fab 5 were there to support him for the osu game, it seemed like in a speech to the team after the game in the locker room, he was taking a shot at fans that have been complaining about the state of the program.
I just don't think the guy gets it, he expects us to be happy with the downward spiral of what was practically a top 10-15 program annually?
January 23rd, 2024 at 10:20 PM ^
The man has had an awful, awful year personally. I sympathize
That said, he ain’t getting it done in any respect, and the trend started before his health issues.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:34 PM ^
down 17 before the 8 minute time out. we got 'em right where we want 'em!
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:34 PM ^
How are players supposed to defend Edey? Refs need to allow smaller guys to be more physical defending him.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:36 PM ^
We have all the momentum now! And still down 11.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:37 PM ^
I've never seen a guard have their pocket picked like that bringing the ball up the court. I mean, he was facing him. WTF.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:37 PM ^
For all the shortcomings on the offensive end, Tarris Reed held the most unguardable guy in CBB to 4 points in the first half
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:38 PM ^
Not sure why George Washington III doesn’t play? It’s not like there is a bunch of guard depth, we aren’t contending for anything this year and Jaelin isn’t lighting it up by any stretch over the season(is tonight so far) . It’s been talked about that Juwan is at least getting another year, seems like you might want to build some a semblance of guard depth for next year.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:39 PM ^
Seriously. How bad can GW3 be? Wait, don't answer that.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:40 PM ^
I’d play him for nothing other than for next years experience. This season is lost anyway.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:41 PM ^
There were actually people on here who thought he was going to get valuable minutes. It’s sad watching this unfold, I always root for Blue but this is embarrassing to watch.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:40 PM ^
I would guess we see him get some minutes at some point in this game.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:45 PM ^
I am pretty sure this reasoning is how Shane Morris got some playing time that... didn't go well. I get your point and nobody trusts Juwan Howard's judgment, but if he is not killing it in practice against these guys, then I am not sure it will help him if various Big Ten teams devour him out there.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:38 PM ^
Noah Eagle says we're hanging around. That's kind.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:41 PM ^
Kind... of inaccurate.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:39 PM ^
Warde's got a lot on his plate considering he's known for doing nothing.
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:42 PM ^
So we still have a MBB team?
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:53 PM ^
Sort of...
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:43 PM ^
Cheddar on Edey... Eeesh
January 23rd, 2024 at 9:43 PM ^
Burnett had taken on the TWill fuck-up role with enthusiasm!
