No Dug, but we have Juwan.

At some point it’s all about what the record is! You are what the record says. And sorry, Juwan and supporters, this is bad basketball with a bottom of the league record.

It just looks like what they do in practice is roll out the ball and tell the guys to run around and shoot whenever they feel like it and do whatever makes them happy. 

It seriously looks like that during games.

Love Juwan the player but Juwan the coach and staff are....well I really don't know WTF they are, not good is a thought.

not sure if this is possible, but if Juwan could have an open try out for students mid season he could find some walk-ons that would improve this team.  glad I tuned in late.

To lose to a pathetic team like Maryland is awful.

Beilein used to own teams like this and PSU and Minnesota, etc.

Warde better be looking at potential  coaches right now and not waste time going into the offseason.

Why do we force a 7 player line up every single game. The walkons can’t be that much worse. And khayat enters the game like he’s not allowed to shoot. Sad level Michigan basketball has fallen to

Juwan is out of time now that football is done and people are actually forced to settle for watching this.

i don’t understand doing right by him to finish the season — he already had fireable offenses in the past.  Player-legend or no — just end it. It’s still just basketball — not football. You really can just terminate him mid season and move on.

So yeah, if you didn't watch this game it basically went like all the others sans Dug.  Start scoring okay early on, grow a big lead mostly because the other team can't hit a shot, then see it slowly whittle away.  

Rinse and repeat.

I'm just glad I don't have to watch Dug dribble the ball through his legs, around his back, crossover to his left, back through his legs, and one last time around the other side of his back...................while bringing the ball up the court......................................with no one guarding him.

I have been off the train for a while now. I was concerned after the Houstan year, and I had pretty much given up about halfway through last year on this staff. Still, I was ready to root, but I've stopped watching games for the first time since the first year or two of Beilein. It's bad, and it sucks. Bleh.
