Serious question to number guys. What do you think Poole, Livers, and Brooks + - numbers are? Poole's Gotta be best on the team.

So, Jordan Poole and Livers and Watson bring energy at least. Wagner was God awful. I don't see him in the NBA to be frank. His shot isn't consistent enough and his decision making in the second half was terrible. Duncan Robinson is a waste of floor space when he can't hit threes. He's a defensive liability. Matthews simply got worked tonight for whatever reason. I know it's not analytic analysis, but the Buckeyes just wanted it more in the second half. Michigan got its lead, but after a 5 point play (which was complete bullshit), Michigan thought it could coast. I know everyone will want to pile on Beilein, but you've got to play your starters down the stretch. If Matthews, Robinson and Wagner play like that we're screwed anyway. Terrible.....

is our Tum Tum Nairns, sigh
Coach really makes questionable subbing decisions, I have great respect for him and his ability to get the team right but his teams can be so frustrating to watch, I just wish he would change his ways in some regards.

it's JBs fault that 6-7 shots were missed at the rim by guys who have been finishing there all year. also, JBs fault that they shot like 1-12 from 3 in the second half. they had plenty of good looks, but the shots didn't fall.
that said, something has to be done to get robinson's minutes down. he can't even hit a open 3 anymore.
December 4th, 2017 at 8:54 PM ^
Same here with Coach B, he clearly is stubborn in making changes to what he thought it would be at beginning of year. I like Beilein & Harbaugh, BUT dudes are way too stubborn!!
Hopeful with 3-4 practices the next few days he gets to see how some guys deserve more minutes and others WAY less.

Not saying coach B didn't want to win. Just don't see your argument for why he didn't think the guys off the bench gave them the best chance to win. What I love about basketball is it can be pretty black and white. If certain guys, when on the floor, are consistently winning the +/- game, something tells me I need to play them more. When you watch the game tonight, when tied at 5-6 minutes. It's easy to see your starters have played like garbage most the game, and especially last 5 of 1st and all of 2nd half.

But you don't blow a 20 point lead to an inferior opponent, period.
That may be your "big picture" thing, but don't use that as some excuse as to why they lost this specific game. This was a pathetic, piss-poor implosion.

I didn't say it was an excuse for losing this game. My comments were directed to the JB haters and everyone throwing in the towel already. Chill out.
They got punched in the mouth at on the road and mentally folded. How do you coach kids not to get rattled? You can't. The osu defense was ten times more intense in the second half and they couldn't miss a shot.
December 4th, 2017 at 9:13 PM ^
You clearly made this post to justify why they lost this game.
December 4th, 2017 at 9:18 PM ^
December 4th, 2017 at 9:22 PM ^
To figure it out.
Team lost a game that they had no business losing, and you made a post to talk about the big picture. You wouldn't make it otherwise.

Brooks 20/Z 10
Maar 25/ Poole 5
Matthews 20/ Poole 10
Robinson 15/ Livers 15
Mo 20 / Teske 10
Last 8-10 you ride the best guys. Clearly tonight was Brooks, Maar, Poole, Livers, Teske.

I know people love JB. I get it. He’s a great guy and coach. But these games are hard to watch and I tend to just wait for the implosion like a train wreck you know is about to happen. Every game and then if it doesn’t people exaggerate about how good we are.
Officials. Ethics Committee. Pitssnoggle. Subsz. Yada yada . Same crap different year.
