And this doesn’t include anyone from the portal…

@husknfanatic @JackMitchellLNK @iKalebHenry @I80Club Shout out @JackMitchellLNK and @iKalebHenry. @OldTakesExposed

@ayRelax @DiegoOjeda724 You don’t think he will come back in late December ?
English
@andyroche16 I think this outcome will surprise people the same way Arizona’s ass-kicking of #1 seed Michigan State did in the 2001 Final Four.
English
Arizona is better than Michigan at every aspect of the game. Arizona is FAR more battle tested, and has never showed glaring weaknesses against bad teams like Michigan has
Arizona WILL win by 10+. If they lose, I will fly to Ann Arbor and personally apologize to every fan I see

@Sam_Stuve @JR3_Cyco @RockChalkBlog UConn can’t be in the East if they’re 5th and Duke is 1st on the s curve.
English
@JR3_Cyco @RockChalkBlog I get trying to follow the S-Curve, but wtf is this by Lunardi lol. I have Houston as the No. 2 in the South, ISU as 2 in the Midwest, Michigan State as the 2 in the West and as the 2 UConn in the East.
English
How in the world can you compare Duke, Michigan, and Arizona’s resumes and conclude that Arizona is 3?
They all have the same record but the Wildcats won the toughest conference, they had the best noncon, and they had the toughest conference tournament path. How are they not 1?

Yaxel Lendeborg was an unstoppable force on Senior Night, finishing with 27 points on 8-12 from the field, along with 3 rebs and 3 assists.
Lendeborg does whatever Michigan needs from him on any given night. There's a reason he's the 2nd most valuable player nationally in BPR.

@tmcandrew21 @itsAntWright On the same play as Mara’s bank? I don’t see that at all.
English
@Chinchillin_3 @itsAntWright Yaxel did when he got doubled and stumbled
English
This is the type of defense NBA scouts fall in love with.. Morez’s feet, showing his hands.. took contact straight to the chest, good no call
If Stirtz initiates contact on the left or right side, that’s getting called a foul with Morez out of position
Gary Koerner@koerner_gary
Could have called the bump.. Calls matter
English
@tmcandrew21 @itsAntWright Don’t think Mara traveled. Idk what the commentator was looking at.
English
@itsAntWright I’m sure(know) you get fans bitching about refs in your comments all the time but the back to back possessions around 1 minute left starts with 2 very questionable travels not being called leading to a Mara heave that banks in followed by that Manyawu no call is a tough sequence
English
@DrewCHallett They also have the chance to be the first B1G team to be undefeated in road conference games since at least the late 80s. I went as far back as 88-89 and it hasn’t happened.
English
Michigan has set a program record with 17 Big Ten wins this season. The record had been 16 in 1976-77 and 1984-85.
The most in Big Ten history is 18 when the schedule was 18 games -- twice by Indiana in 1974-75 and 1975-76.

@gwizzy12 @JMannsTakes Maybe I’m salty, but 2 Orebs and a questionable goaltend doesn’t really read as a masterpiece
English
Scheyer masterpiece @JMannsTakes

Duke scored on every possession after the U4. - Flare for Evans, Mich not switching off Boozer. Ngongba initating (no help)-> alley-oop. - Late clock 4-5 P&R w/ Boozer-Ngongba. Michigan switches. Boozer blocked at rim but fouled on O reb as shot clock expires. - Same exact flare play but with Foster. Bigs help on the pass to Foster on the cut -> kick-out 3 for Boozer. - Evans ghost screen for Boozer (a play Duke loves). Boozer gets downhill for 6-foot hook. Goaltend with clock under 5. - Up 3, late clock 4-5 P&R with Boozer-Ngongba again. M switching. Boozer hits Ngonbga on slip. Yax alters shot. 5 Michigan players in paint but Ngonbga gets O rebound. Ballgame.
English
@CFBChuckk @UMvsEveryone I mean yeah, the 7+’ guy wasn’t the best at staying in front of good-great guards. That’s not “atrocious”. I’m not comparing him to Yax. Obviously he’s wayyyyyy better.
English
@Chinchillin_3 @UMvsEveryone Sure except he got cooked repeatedly by any decent perimeter scorer
Yaxel is the guy you put on the best perimeter scorer
English
Another flaming hot take from the basketball guru 😭🔥
DK@SpartanHoops_DK
@RaphealDavis3 @ShootyH00ps There’s zero chance Yaxel is an upgrade defensively. If that was the case he would’ve already been a pro. He’s nowhere near as mobile as Wolf. Offensively and in the paint yes. Also this was the elite perimeter D for MI against the best guards they played last year….
English
@CFBChuckk @UMvsEveryone I mean he was able to switch 1-5 which unlocked the entire two big lineup with Goldin. “Atrocious defender” is crazy.
English
@UMvsEveryone Why was he talking about Danny Wolf like he wasn’t an absolutely atrocious defender
English
The problem now is that any little thing Fears is involved in is assumed to be dirty
Half of these plays are absolutely nothing
The Winged Helmet@TWH_Chris
Jeremy Fears.
English
@Connormuldowney @AndrewTalksHoop It doesn’t take much to get moved off path when the feet are off the ground. Photo 1 to 2 without any force from Kohler just doesn’t make any sense. If you want to call it a push or a whatever, idc. He was thrown off balance from it and failed to spin-slip the screen.
English
@Chinchillin_3 @AndrewTalksHoop that’s very much not a shove lol it may look like one but Jaxon puts 0% of his muscle into what you’re calling a shove. he’s checking his man.
English
This feels owed, but also requested.
-Morez leading with his shoulder for some get back
-Trey pulling Scott by the arm to the ground
-Tschet pulling Coop jersey on the lob
-Tschet with an egregious jump into Scott taking away his landing area, which was probably the worst call of the game
English
@Connormuldowney @AndrewTalksHoop The shove is on video man. Dunno what to tell you. Maybe he still wanted to shoulder check Fears regardless of the shove. Idk.
English
@Chinchillin_3 @AndrewTalksHoop his arms are literally extended to track his man. he’s not “shoving” morez into fears
English
@Chinchillin_3 @AndrewTalksHoop lmaoooo that is not a shove my guy
English
@wurtsports @AndrewTalksHoop He’s trying to slip a ball screen and attempts to see the play through after the shove gets him off path and off balance, and failed miserably at doing so. It’s still a defensive foul causing the offensive foul and obviously not malicious
English
@Chinchillin_3 @AndrewTalksHoop We’re not serious, right? When his arms extend Morez’s momentum is going in the complete opposite direction of when he hits Fears.
English
@MartyKaverman @AndrewTalksHoop Maybe I’m wrong though, and Morez’s original intent was to come in and give a jab step, spin move shoulder check to Fears. Who knows
English
@MartyKaverman @AndrewTalksHoop He has been pushed at this point. Do you see how Kohler’s arm is fully extended? That’s why all of his weight is on his right foot. Original path towards Fears, pushed the direction of the arrow. Result is trying to spin back to the original path.
English
@MartyKaverman @AndrewTalksHoop Pretending that a 245 lb dude can’t push a 250lb dude off his path while the 250 lb dude is running is 1000x more delusional than anything I’ve tried to say here lmao
English
@MartyKaverman @AndrewTalksHoop Kohler is listed at 245 lbs what are you talking about 😂😂😂. His arms go from not fully extended to fully extended. Thats what a push is! And coincidentally all of Morez’s weight goes onto his outside (right) foot simultaneously with Kohler’s arms becoming fully extended.
