Dusty May to Michigan
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:21 PM ^
January, February, May!
Dusty May be it?
May he be a cowboy in any way? I feel like that's the vibe with that name
March 23rd, 2024 at 11:47 PM ^
Could any intelligent man possibly say “no” to Halle?
I think not…
May he have a wonderful career here!
I can't pay attention to this until after we beat Sparty and the refs on the ice.
Halle Berry is an excellent distraction from the last 90 seconds of that 2nd period.
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:55 PM ^
When is Halle Berry NOT an excellent distraction?
March 23rd, 2024 at 11:01 PM ^
is this a trick question
Truth👆. Damn refs.
Warde!!! Gotta give the big guy some credit. He went out and got the top coach available.
With what’s available, this is like saying your kid went to the best prison.
y'know, minimum-security prison is no picnic. I have a kid in there now.
He tells me, the trick is, kick someone's a$$ the first day.

I heard Peter Navarro just punched some accountant in the nuts.
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:00 PM ^
Doubt you’re much of an expert on any of coaches available, other than cursory look at stats. Please enlighten on what is left wanting on prospective coaches. I’m sure this will be a deep dive
*Easiest coach available. If Warde did a good job, he would've gotten a guy who people didn't know was available.
The name Dusty May sounds like a bush pilot with a drinking problem and two ex-wives who’s the US Navy’s only chance. Hope he doesn’t suck.

And a three day growth of beard.
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:39 PM ^
Or a Porn Star.
March 23rd, 2024 at 11:44 PM ^
I find the name Dusty May completely indistinguishable from Rocky Burnette.
i like it!!! Michigan gets revenge against Louisville!
The block was clean
Not only was it clean, it was fucking spectacular.
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:22 PM ^
And so was the Team!
March 24th, 2024 at 11:42 AM ^
Absolutely. Will never forget or understand that call.
I understand it just fine. The refs thought it was impossible for Trey Burke to do something that awesome without fouling, so they called it on instinct. Burke was just that good.
He's a guy with one good year. I will get behind him but it's basically like Andy enfield.
Two good years, last year and this one. More importantly he built the program at FAU. He also has never had a losing season as a head coach.
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:02 PM ^
Ah, yes, the new "he's never been an assistant coach."
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:21 PM ^
Well that one worked out pretty well for us
The same Andy Enfield who has won 60% of his games since going to USC, was PAC12 COY and has a 24 win, 25 win and two 26 win seasons at a place that doesn't really care about bball?
11 Years, made it past the 2nd round of the tournament one time at a school like USC which has a much bigger budget and draw for recruiting then FAU would. I'd rather have May.
My dude, we are both saying we like May.
My comment was responding to TMG who is making it sound like its a bad hire because he's like Enfield parlaying one good year, but Enfield has been a good hire for USC.
FAU basketball before him was a nonentity. He turned it into a Final Four school. He built something at FAU. That matters.
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:07 PM ^
They went 1 time to final and then got bounced in round 1 the following year (this year). He didn't turn them into a final four school lol
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:10 PM ^
I mean by definition, yes he did.
Jesus, why are you goobers trying so hard to dismiss him already? ffs.
FAU was a terrible program, and we won with them. Took them to a final four, and then won 25 games the next season, beating TAMU and Arizona. Yes, they looked bad against Northwestern, but he built up a bad program to one that won at a level way above their status.
March 23rd, 2024 at 10:55 PM ^
Not trying to dismiss him but to say he turned them into a Final Four school is hyperbolic and a tool to try to make him sound like a better candidate than he is. He did well at FAU but now we have to see if that translate given how Michigan operates. Im sure FAU wasn't as stringent as Michigan has been.
March 23rd, 2024 at 11:04 PM ^
Its not "hyperbolic" its literally what happened.
March 24th, 2024 at 12:11 AM ^
To be fair, "turned into a final four school" sorta implies that they are constant participants of the final four year in and year out when technically they've only been once. Still a hell of an accomplishment FAU.
So then Sparty is a national championship school since they went thr championship game in football 1 time lol You see how stupid that sounds lol Again, im not dismissing the hire but a school has to have multiple final four appearances to a "final four" school. Had it been said "he took them to a final four" instead of "he turned them into a final four school", then I wouldn't have called the statement hyperbolic.
March 24th, 2024 at 10:27 AM ^
They didn't go to the national championship game. They were thrashed 38-0 in the semifinal by Bama.
March 24th, 2024 at 12:06 PM ^
If you're going to dig in, and be a smart ass, you better make sure you are correct in the smart ass things you are saying...
Strike two.
March 23rd, 2024 at 11:43 PM ^
Wait, did FAU not go to the final four??
March 24th, 2024 at 12:49 AM ^
You sound like a turd
March 23rd, 2024 at 11:28 PM ^
I think it's the fact that he has been there for six years and last year was his only real good year. This year he had a great team and was ranked preseason and lost to Northwestern so not really exceeding expectations. Porter Moser went to the final four with Loyola and hasn't translated at Oklahoma. May seems like a flash in the pan type of guy like Moser or Enfield.
March 23rd, 2024 at 11:35 PM ^
Did you see what FAU was before him? Dude literally has never had a losing season at a school that had a ton of them before he arrived.
March 24th, 2024 at 12:16 AM ^
No Porter is not doing wonders at Oklahoma (.545), but his total win percentage is ontrack with what it was at Loyola (.571) so it seems as though he's par for the course at the moment. Sometimes it's because a coach is just a winner and sometimes it's just a few magical seasons.
However, it seems extremely premature to automatically declare Dusty May a flash in the pan, don't you think? He's only been at one school and he already has a better total win percentage than Beilein himself ended with. Which is also a clip better than Porter Moser at his best.
