I dont think theres the slightest reason to panic but a little shocking to see that pop up on Twitter
TAKE YOUR GRUBBY HANDS OFF OF OUR SUBS.
NO! NO GOD NO! Can we just continue to have one nice thing please?
I don't feel so good guyz
I think you forgot some more "oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooos"
This is not happening. He JUST put in new mulch at his home.
*Puts on tinfoil hat*
What if he was just sprucing up his yard because he knew he was going to sell his house and head for the NBA!!!!
Do you know what mulch smells like? You don't put that down and get that smell to increase the perceived value of your house.
that you do
If he takes the Pistons job he doesn't have to move.
Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The Pistons seem to be interviewing a ton of people, so hopefully this is just that.
I'm a huge Pistons fan, but I don't want John Beilein to ever leave Michigan.
but I'm surprised Beilien would be interested enough to take an interview at this stage in his career. Maybe just wants to check that box off his bucket list: yeah, i was offered an NBA job but turned it down.
he could actually go out and acquire players that best fit his system through the draft, trades or free agency. currently, he has to battle for recruits, and often unexepectedly loses them early to the nba.
i think he and kerr have had several meetings and coach similar styles. JB could be every bit as good as kerr. who knows, maybe some of the piston players would actually get better under his watch.
but, by god, i hope he stays.
was important for Beilein even if he knew he didn't want the job. I've known a few coaches that "interview" at jobs they don't want for the sole purpose of hyping up some of their close friends or members of their coaching tree. I have no idea what the case is, but it's possible that he had other intentions.
Just no.
Fuck the Pistons.
No thank you!

I hope he's talked to guys like newly committed Jalen Wilson and let em know he was just doing it for fun (Hopefully thats the reason) otherwise I could see this being a bit upsetting for them
Putting my UM fandom aside I have thought of Beileins offense in the NBA. I think his system would work extremely well in todays day and age
Damn you and your plausible conspiracy nuggets
have you watched golden state?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I'm sorry guyz i fear this is my fault. Everything I love in life eventually leaves me :(
NOOOO!!!! Don't go NBA John, that game sucks!!! You OWN Ann Arbor, and would be just another unrecognizable schmo in pro sports!
Please nooooooooooooooo............
Every man has a right to do whatever he wants, but this?
Noooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Am I clear enough here......? Just in case.......
Pistons....
BACK OFF, he belongs in Ann Arbor!!!!!!!
Didn't Manuel just say he wanted Harbaugh and Beilein to retire as UM coaches? I think both will but a lot can happen before that.
I mean the Pistons are not the prettiest girl at the party but the job is close to home, they're a young team that doesn't really have a mold and the Eastern conference is... not great. Who knows how he'd translate to the NBA?
HELLS NO
that this is him testing the waters, and if it puts a bit of pressure on Warde to fill up the cash truck a bit more, so be it.
Shit.
This is NOT how to begin a weekend.

...kicking tires is all, Pistoin doing their due dilligence, IMO.
With what he has built here, and what is coming..naw
