Iād put out X, Ibi, Duncan, DJ and Moā¦let the others earn their time.
Canāt have two sets of standards for your team. Ideally, those players will earn minutes and starts in practice. At worst, during games where they need to eat minutes (due to injury, foul trouble, etc) they step up and prove to themselves that their hard work is paying off.
@MattD @tarverine @buckets12 @hailtoyourvictor @LosAngelesWolverine1 and a bunch of other regular posters, was wondering why you dont participate in the games open threads. I guess I mostly do because my friends arenāt that into basketball, so I need somewhere to complain and exclaim during timeouts. Just thought itād be interesting to hear peoples real-time in-game thoughts and analysis.
For me I just like to focus on the game liveā¦just out of habit I guess

I probably would if we did them through the forum. Harder for me to follow along to the Open Threads.

Iāve always just been a āfollow what the smart people say on Twitterā type of guy. Iām also a āgets very mad about sportsā type of guy so game threads arenāt my forte, although Iāve never tried participating in them before. Now that Iām back at UNC from break and I wonāt be going to the Michigan games I might try following the game on twitter with my phone and going to the game threads with the computer, although the issue is that with Big Ten Network not being out here I have to stream it on my laptop.

My answer is pretty much the same as Hailās. I follow along in the open threads but I generally find the commentary in the forum to be a lot more enjoyable and easier. Sometimes the threads turn into āJust cut Zak Irvin and all our problems are solvedā and itās turned me away a little bit. Would love a game thread option on the forum but Iām sure Dylan wants to direct traffic to the open thread itself

Well, we have a top 10 paid coach. Michigan charges $100 for a t shirt. $150 for a good ticket. $20 for a coke.
All signs point to having a program in the thick of the hunt for a big ten title every year. At least thatās what my wallet is telling me.

Iām not sure if thatās supposed to be an insult for us being soft? Traditionally weāve beaten Illinois 10 out of 11 times so if so idk what the point of saying that is.

Since peaking at 15 on kenpom after SMU weāve been on a pretty much constant decline down to 47. Weāre 151st on defense. I mean all I can do is laugh at this point.
