The thing that's really bad for the hoops program is that many folks like me aren't even mad any more. We're now apathetic towards the program, which is even worse. I didn't watch one second of last night's debacle and probably won't watch the rest of the year. This is as bad as that program has been since the Ellerbe era, and I never thought we'd ever be that bad again!
Pretty much a bandwagon Lions fan here, but Campbell has to grow up a bit. He's done a fantastic job getting the Lions relevant, but the game theory is just out of control. Another game lost because of coaching with your balls instead of your brain.
Seriously, can we just get this over with. This program has become an embarrassment. I usually am never in favor of firing a coach mid season, but holy fuck, enough is enough
I played a bunch of sports growing up and have coached kids for close to 10 years now. I just can't wrap my head around a grown adult needing to scream at a young person over playing a sport. It boggles my mind. If you can't motivate positively, you should re-evaluate your need to coach.
Sad and surprising, but given how this team looked last year, I believe it. I feel bad for Juwan to some extent. I think the pressure of truly wanting to succeed here, plus the obstacles (M's approach to NIL and transfer denials) broke him. Clean house after this year and start from scratch.
The run game has been mediocre all year because they run the same basic dive play into stacked boxes and never use play action. Also very few deep shots this season to open up the box. Honestly, if JJ wasn't as accurate a passer as he is, I think our offensive numbers this year would be below average. Thank God Sherrone opened up the playbook a bit against OSU. Here's to hoping they find some more creativity against Bama, or honestly, I don't like our chances much!
This post should be made a sticky. There is a darkness over college football that very much needs to go away. I am hopeful that expanding the playoffs will help so that a program can sustain a loss or 2 during the regular season and not have people ready to kill themselves. It's all gotten a bit absurd!
The defensive issues are coaching and effort. They have plenty of length on this team outside of Dug to be good defensively. They have no idea how to rotate and help on defense. That's coaching. Then they leave guys glaringly wide open and don't close out on the 3. That's effort. I think this season will end up putting Juwan very much on the hot seat
Ya know, that's a good point. Last year just left a really bad taste in my mouth. We had talent, but zero desire to win. I see all of the same bad habits this year and it takes me back to last year
This is a bad situation. This team sucks right now, and our head coach has to be very limited in what he can do because of his health. I'm bummed. I love Juwan, but I don't know how much more time he's entitled to. This program is stagnant and ugly to watch
It's gonna be a long year. This team has no idea how to play help defense. They do a terrible job of closing out on the 3. They don't block out at all. They take bad shots. Not good.

Thank God
What an embarrassment. Our worthless AD needs to hire an outside firm to do his job for him. Sad
So the problem is obvious here. Nobody ever taught Warde the definition of the word effort. It all makes sense now.
I've been hearing this shit rumor for over a month. Doubt there's anything to it. Still..........FIRE WARDE!!!!
Anyone who still supports Manuel as AD is delusional

My only argument is against your #5. Welcome to the new age of college football. Everyone is going to be hiring new coordinators every couple years.
2 short months til Tiger baseball

Good. More alumni need to join the cause. The program is a complete joke
It should be a "Nard Dog" on hit butt cheek

There is no limit to how stupid this team can play. It's actually amazing
It's Tom Cream. Please get it right
What a stupid ass comment this is. Yup, the sports world is just dying laughing about how we're in the CFP.

Yeah............not ideal. It's probably best to part ways before something truly embarrassing happens, which at this point seems kind of inevitable.

I do miss him. He was a treasure. Not nearly enough people like him
I can't do it anymore. The horrendous shot selection and even worse defense. I'm watching Home Alone 2 for the 700th time ya filthy animals
Shut your dirty whorish mouth. Don't even think about that.
See second line of your comment
Dennis can tell you all about it
Hard to argue. Congratulations Brian. I always thought it would be Mutt Cutts that bought you out, but this is a nice offer
Does the Northwestern Car Wash video play after this?
I knew that was gonna be their out to screw FSU and get Bama in

You mean it's NOT gonna be Jon Gruden?!?!?!?!?!?!? Shocking I say
and it's all you need

I suppose to some extent that's true. I know he'd pushed a lot of the wrong buttons around here. I just found him amusing
I miss the little feller. To think he's gone because of Ace irritates me.
dude, if we would lose to Iowa, (which ain't gonna happen), we would definitely be out
Good luck Zak. You will always be a legend in Ann Arbor. We love you and God bless you, young man! Your future is bright!
Whoever negged you obviously didn't watch the Stanford game because you are spot on!

Ok Juwan, let's direct some of that anger toward the team.
holy shit. what.........gave up 6 offensive rebounds there?
Ya know, that's a good point. Last year just left a really bad taste in my mouth. We had talent, but zero desire to win. I see all of the same bad habits this year and it takes me back to last year
I'm sorry my dude, this isn't a this year problem. We've been on a downward trend for 2 years now
Totally agree with you there. Unfortunately the effort issue is not new under Juwan. Needs to change immediately.

I just see bad habit after bad habit. Hopefully they grow out of it, but I don't like what I see at all.
Dug has a terrible habit of putting up a bad shot, sulking about it, and not getting back on D. He's done it about 5 times in this tournament
It's gonna be a long year. This team has no idea how to play help defense. They do a terrible job of closing out on the 3. They don't block out at all. They take bad shots. Not good.
I can't take anymore of Andraya Carter. She doesn't shut up for 5 seconds. 3 games of her is simply unfair
