I'm starting to think this is a problem.
Yeah man, I hear ya. I love Coach Beilien, but what is going on?
How many more years of eligiblity do you have and can you play basketball?
I was an All-Star in 7th grade in 1995. Does that count?
I was hoping you were the real L'Carpetron Dookmarriot.
injuries and bad luck n stuff. That's all. There's nothing at all wrong with the program. There's no reason we should expect there to be any depth when a mediocre starter goes down.

Damn, I can't wait for football season.
Ok. Never seemed like he caught on to the system. Hopefully the staff can fill that slot with someone whose skillset is better suited for Michigan. Appreciative of everything he gave to the program, particularly that buzzer beating three this year. Best of luck, Kam!

Not just that, an under 6 foot shooting gaurd who had limitted athleticism prior two his two hip surgeries. Spike is a good basketball player because he does things well that you need a point gaurd to do well. It would have been very sad if he had returned to be the third point guard as a 5th year senior. I hope he has a great year at Purdue and if he does, it will still have been the right choice to not bring him back.
You'll probably be seeing some of that this year. MAAR isn't going to be playing 40 minutes at the 2. There'll be times when 6'1" Walton and 5'11" Simpson are probably on the court at the same time.
Exactly. Roster management, recruiting, results on court, assistant emigration - the pieces are not adding up to a healthy picture.

Well there's always Chatma... oh, nm.
Or, you know, his playing would inhibit the development of an objectively more talented guard, and he has an injury that tends to linger, even with surgery. He has a genetic condition. His surgery doesn't fix the issue. It provides a stopgap that slows its progression. He is still likely a candidate for a future double hip replacement surgery. If you want a guy with potentially severlely inhibited joints that may or may not have been helped by his recent massively invasive surgery to start over Ohio's Mr. Basketball next year, you're insane.
to football, especially the QB position, is also a bullshit argument.
It works for basketball too. Should msu have gotten Costello to transfer last year so Schilling could play more and get ready for the 2016-2017 season. The more players you have, the better team you'll have. that's why Alabama and Tom Crean oversign. If you have less players, you have a greater chance of being screwed with injuries or the players you have not being very good like Doyle and Donnal last year. thats why Harbaugh brought in a so-so qb at the time like Rudock while also developing his younger guys and having the best guy play. At the end of the year, Rudock was dealing and we were a better team than we would have been if we followed the let your young guys like Speight and Malzone develop by getting rid of everyone else and forcing them to play.
I disagree with this narrative that having Spike around would hinder the development of a talented young player. I would think a kid like that could learn a lot from a much beloved veteran 5th year senior who was a fan favorite and NCAA tournament hero.
Spike wouldn't be eating up big minutes next year anyway but it would be nice to have him around for some stop-the-bleeding minutes where he can settle the team down and provide some solid shooting and ball-handling. It would also be nice to see him finish his career in a Michigan uniform.

We embrace Harbaugh's mantra of competition when it comes to playing time in football but with basketball, we don't want any competition for playing time.
I get it, you want to be witty and clever. It takes time. Falling into a false angst persona (or even worse - a real angst persona) won't get you there. Relax, analyze the situations. Then post. Just a tip.
Yeah, the dead horse took it all up.

Beilein's contract is through 2021 and it would cost $6 million to fire him next year. The basketball program is fucked, and if he doesn't turn it around in recruiting over the next 2 years whoever comes in next will be just as fucked with a completely bare roster and a 2-3 year rebuilding project, so that's great.
WE MADE THE NCAA TOURNAMENT THIS YEAR.
Try not to be so sensible. Panic and anger are so much more fun.
THAT DOESN"T MEAN THE TEAM IS IN A GOOD PLACE MOVING FORWARDS.
Is that you???
And have made it 5 of the last 6 years after not having made it in a decade prior to Beillein's arrival.
By this same argument you'd have kept Hoke to avoid "going back" to the days of WCiMFH and missed out on Harbaugh.
The basketball team is like a car that runs well one day a week, when the humidity is just right and all the planets line up and the moon is full.
Shoot lights-out threes and win. Anything else, lose. How long has it been since we had a center who played well for even most of a season? McGary came on strong one year in the tournament, but that was it.
