MBB: Youseff Khayat has transferred to BGSU

Didn’t do much here but he was a board favorite when he was recruited. Must suck to think you’re going to be coming over from Lebanon spending your college years in Ann Arbor. Then a coaching change and boom you’re stuck in Ohio! 😒😞

Last season was over after the mcneese debacle.

He should have just played.

Howard just had no plan other than to throw his hands up and say there's nothing I can do.

He was a board favorite because of the great experience we had with Mo and moreso Franz. And I clamored for him to play a lot, but afterwards I realized he wasn't good enough to play here.

Wish him luck.  He had a lot of potential but I'm interested to see if a bunch of the deep bench guys find success elsewhere and so their struggles can be ascribed to poor coaching/team play but I worry that part of UM's issues last year was that they didn't have anyone on the bench who could reasonably play at the P5 level and thus the starters had to play way more than you'd like.

I had high hopes for him.   Thought he could be an X factor but clearly he didn’t get developed much by the prior regime.

We went to the Franz Store and asked for a Franz, and they gave us a model that needed a lot of work instead.

Oh, well. Tear it up in the MAC and come back as a 34% shooter from 3 in a couple years.
