Kudos to the team on their run. If we did our season percentage of 3's we are in this game. It is a killer playing when you are behind a bunch. We were awful in the 3 department. Robinson finsihed with zero points as did Livers. Matthews had 6. At least MAAR finished on a good note.
It was a great ride. Feel bad for Beilein who deserves at least one NC before he retires.
I loved watching them and so proud of them.
is saying goodbye to MAAR and Robinson and probably Wagner. 3 players that were absolutely a joy to watch over the last couple years
Not sure he will go. He seems to love being in college, being at Michigan and playing college basketball too much to turn the page. He may decide to put in the work to improve his pro prospects instead of taking the immediate leap. Either way, I hope he does what is best for himself. Great young man.
Tremendous effort and what a great run! Excited for the future of Michigan basketball. Go Blue!
You made me proud to be a Wolverine. You made us proud. Thank you, team, for fighting, scratching and clawing to a great season that no one expected.
We were a 5 seed in the B1G Tournament and finished in the Final 2. Good season fellas.
John Beilein all class all the time.Even after a painful loss!
chemistry, played well beyond everyone's expectations, won 32 games and lost in the National Championship game to a great team who got 31 points from their 6th man.
33 wins actually.
his daddy is.
Overachievers all the way. They don't have 4 NBA first round picks plus a high second like the 2013 crew, they're just an exceptionally gritty bunch that came together and learned to play D.
I love this team. They just couldn't find the range after A&M, which is such a shame, because we know it's in there somewhere for them to go off. If only it had been tonight.
We lost to a great, great team. Sometimes, the bar eats you.
This may be Coach B's best chance to win the championship. We come up shot. They have a good game plan, but a bench player and the refs crushed us once again. Too many touch foul. When we pull away, the refs start to call us foul, one possesion, the same refs call Robinson two fouls and kick him off the court.
Always hate basketball, if it's not Michigan, I wouldn't even watch any basketball game. It's indeed a great run regardless.
I think our best days are yet to come. The incoming recruiting class will shows, two years later, this team will come back to the stage and next time, they will as stronger. Hopefully, we can keep this group of assistant coaches for a long time. Great group, indeed. Hat off for all players and coaches.
Goll Damnit. Great fricking run. Came up against a stacked team who played a great title game. Michigan boys didn't play up to their potential. If you had, differnt story perhaps. Will be watching every damn game next year and pulling for you young men like all hell. You have the defense part down. Now work on your shooting and perfect that craft so next year you can walk your way right back into this very same game. It is surely and easily there for the taking if you simply want it. You guys have the talent and work ethic. Go Blue!!!
I'm very proud of all that they sacrificed to get to the Championship Game. Just ran into a better team that shot well on a night we didn't.
What a long way this board has come.
Chaos in January, to appreciation in April.
Thank you guys for an unforgettable season.
Now I'm just quickly getting myself pumped to go out and win a Frozen Four!
Go Blue!!!
It was a good year

I'm wasted from the bars, but words cannot express how proud I am of these group of guys. Sometimes, the shots don't go the way you want them too. Two days ago, I made an asshole comment about MAAR and I apologize for that. I want to thank MAAR and Duncan Robinson as seniors for giving Michigan fans some incredible experiences over these past 3-4 years. They truly have exemplified what it means to be a Michigan fan. I couldn't ask for better representatives of the University of Michigan. We lost to a better team today, but gosh darn it, I love this group more than anything.
Hell of a ride boys.
It was a heckuva fun run...shame it had to end in a big loss like that, but that was a super fun stretch of basketball. GO BLUE!!!
Great run guys - be proud of what you have accomplished! Even bigger thrill is that your coach, John Beilein, does it right!
Now onto the long offseason until football.
(After hockey of course.)
It was a great ride this year. 2-0 against State, winning the BIG tournament, Final Four run. Not too shabby.
Great season. I havent cared about Michigan basketball in a very long time . Go Blue, lets make it back next year with Moe Wagner as a senior .
