BTT 2021: Michigan vs. Maryland Open Thread

What are these issues that Turgeon had in the first couple games?

pretty clear that Turgeon does not fully respect Juwan as a coach. all that ā€œ34 yearsā€ stuff.

I wonder if this all stems from Hunter’s thing about feeling ā€œdisrespectedā€

I highly doubt Juwan gets more specific, but someone will anonymously leak what transpired eventually

So Michigan Maryland gonna be a thing going forward along with Illini. Nice to add a little heat to the league.

I think Hunter’s overzealous trash talk was ā€œout of the ordinaryā€ but it didn’t seem malicious and would be surprising if it warranted a call to the commissioner’s office.

Coach that lose complain

I mean, Morsell’s head was dented. I didn’t think it was intentional either, but I can understand why he’d be upset. Turgeon’s probably standing up for his players.

Dickinson was also flexing and talking trash, but I doubt that would be something they’d complain to the commissioner about.

What, no interview with Juwan?

Yes, I saw a listing this morning that said Eli Brooks, Isaiah Livers, Austin Davis, and Jace Howard. I wanted to come on here and ask if anyone knew anything, but didn’t, just chose to wait and see.

He’s an upper East Coast guy, he might have!

Seriously, who might be considered a dirty player on Michigan. Dickinson possibly. Franz whines, but isn’t dirty. Davis because he’s clumsy? There can be no one else.

They didn’t show the whole presser but is no one really going to ask him the obvious follow up question of what he’s talking about in regards to the first two games?

Sounds like a classic thing a coach would say. I wouldn’t read into that much but Turgeon did look silly in that whole interview

Why would Dickinson be considered dirty? Am I missing something?

One thing for sure, this isn’t John Beilein’s Michigan basketball program Exhibit Q. We are picking up enemies and our coach surprisingly has a bit of Jerry Stackhouse in him. I agree with the comment that he’s got to keep his cool next time. Learning episode for him. Meanwhile, onward. The team is still scuffling a bit, and worried about Livers for sure, but we’ve avoided a bad loss and Eli is healthy.

I’m not prepared to say Juwan needs to do this or that when Turgeon was the one stomping and screaming towards him. Turgeon can learn a few lessons himself. Maybe keep his guy Morsell in check while he’s at it
