I get that it’s a different style of play, but it’s like they’ve completely thrown away everything they learned under Beilein when it comes to valuing the basketball
I agree. Could they try to prevent him from catching in such a vulnerable spot so easily? That would be my only complaint
Dear god ugh
Eli is running very well tonite. Looked like Simpson was fouled on the last shot of the half.
Y’all want to see actual incompetence? Watch a UNC game. Coached by a future hall of famer, too.
Pretty crazy to me that a team with Simpson and Teske on it has completely fallen apart like this
Per the stat tracker:
Michigan was 5-of-19 on shots away from the rim.
Penn State was 13-of-27 on shots away from the rim.
Remember what Dylan said… Flag and move on lol
How about at the rim?
Michigan has to find a way to muck up PSUs offense to win. If the Wolverines win, it’ll be gritty not pretty.
DDJs lapses were costly. He really could have helped the team out.
They have Franz locked up. Franz and Brooks have to hunt their shots more aggressively.
Too bad this roster lacks one on one down hill ball handlers. I dont think UM has attempted a FT.
That’s been pretty much 100% the difference in the game. Can wring your hands about coaching and turnovers all you want
7 points in the final 10ish minutes. Ooof.
Why did we go away from posting up with Teske. So many mental mistakes in the first half
Well, second half will say a lot about a lot of question marks, good or not. Backs against the wall, at home, new coach. Do they respond from horrid play? Do they have another gear? Can they overcome? Win the game. Gotta believe, even if there’s little reason to.
Crazier that team after team just dares Michigan to shoot. It’s a new world this year, that’s for sure.
This teams very very hard to watch, and why does ddj ever leave the floor
I get that we struggle with shooting, but jeez, the idiotic turnovers our f’n senior big man getting stripped like that at the top of the key, compounding it with an and 1, not defending the guys you absolutely have to defend on their team, being weak with the ball, getting the ball stripped after we rebound, taking stupid shots
That is all unacceptable and these guys have to make a choice at the half - get it together or just send everyone home. That was BS
Agreed, post touches for Teske should be our “go-to” to try and stop all runs.
Did I miss the great minutes he’s provided tonight?
