No! Why!? Character limit!

My lasting Peedi memory is that one point loss to MSU in his senior year where Kalin Lucas bagged the go ahead shot and Sims had a layup (he was fouled!) roll off the rim. He was on BTN’s The Journey with his head in his locker mumbling “maaan I don’t want to play sports anymore”.

Utterly heart breaking.

Sims deserved better that year - Harris basically quit, Morris, Novak, Stu weren’t ready, Lucas-Perry was a passive waste.

Novak talked about that game (and Beilein’s reaction to it) in this story:

“Coach B is a very mild-mannered guy,” Novak said. “He’s usually very educational and doesn’t get fired up too much. He looks at me and he goes, ‘These guys are never coming in here and (expletive) winning again.’ He had this look in his face like he was not kidding.’ ”

'Everything changed:' A look back at the 2011 MSU-Michigan game that reshaped...

Dylan…great job! Captured some of the best players I’ve ever followed. I forgot how good Mitch was on the floor. He was a freaking beast! I will miss JB’s team’s and the passion they played with.
