@JustinBrannan NHL playoff hockey - nothing better

Does anyone have suggestions on stuff to do now that college basketball season is over?

@UoM_GoBlue That’s just the state of college hoops - don’t have to recruit and develop players - just go to the portal and if you have enough $ there’s your team. Sadly it’s become normalized.

Dusty May was left with 2 players in the program when he took over (Nimari Burnett & Will Tschetter) and rivals are upset that the Starting 5 from last night didn’t start career at Michigan.

@UofMKwn @JCE_123456 Thanks - you stay classy little man!

@JDTrader64 @JCE_123456 Good night broken bitch. Go play frogger on an expressway-you are a waste of air.

It’s so funny people think Michigan is getting the benefit of the whistles because they have more FTs…that’s what happens when the other team IS FOULING A LOT

@Hoopss College basketball has become a joke. But not just hoops - college athletics is supposed to champion the student-athlete not a bunch of semi-pros. Kudos to any coach who recruits HS kids and develops them as players.

Fans say Michigan roster was bought not built.

@bluebyninety Dusty reloading...

I have terrible news for the haters. Dusty May is going to immediately reload and make another run at it. Get used to it.

@UofMKwn @JCE_123456 Good night little man and good luck with that natty. Probably another 37 years before you see another one...

@JDTrader64 @JCE_123456 Why are you still her spewing ignorance?

@UofMKwn @JCE_123456 I know your type - one of those fans that thinks his team does no wrong...Congrats little man. Enoy the national title. Congrats to Michigan - they are a pretty good team and Dusty is a decent coach. Just a shame that the game was decided by the number of fouls called.

@JDTrader64 @JCE_123456 Ahhh so you are ignorant and retarded…

@JCE_123456 @UofMKwn Good one! 😄

@JDTrader64 @UofMKwn JD as in Just Dumb?

@JCE_123456 @UofMKwn Dr as in Dr Demento?

@JDTrader64 @UofMKwn No, but apparently you were and should probably stick to baseball, bud.

What was your go to radio station when you were younger 📻🎶🎵 Mine:

@LAfromLINY YES!!! I was listening to them from a very young age - before they went new wave and used to give away T-shirts if you suggested a segue that they played on the air! I won 2 and wore them until they fell apart!

@knuckifubuck5 @jasonrmcintyre He was a force.

@JDTrader64 @jasonrmcintyre Going against a 7’3 run protector makes you change your trajectory completely. Understandable.

Tarris Reed is gonna have a long, lucrative career in Europe. If this were the 1990s he might be a first round pick. nice footwork and touch in close

@JCE_123456 @UofMKwn Were you watching the Yankees game last night instead of the basketball game? Must have to make that comment.

@JDTrader64 @UofMKwn The data backs it up. UConn is one of the most foul heavy teams in the country this year and Michigan one of the least. It all has to do with playing style.

@TheHerd @colincowherd Some facts for you: Michigan is a good team. Congrats. Both teams played tough defense. Both teams played physical. The officiating was very uneven and Michigan benefited from it. If you were actually paying attention to the game and have any hoops knowledge you would agree.

"Every time UConn wins a title the losing team complains about the officials. This morning, UConn, that's you. A bully always meets its match." @colincowherd reacts to Michigan's national championship win over UConn

@game7__ What a clown you are

Michigan confirmed what all real basketball fans already knew: Dan Hurley is the 2nd most overrated coach in all of college hoops. (Dawn Staley is the most overrated.) The loudest coach in the tournament lost. Again. The quietest one cut down the nets. And frankly, Dan Hurley shouldn't have even been in this game. Everyone saw that Duke got robbed against UConn. Three title games in four years sounds like a dynasty. But the two championships Hurley won, in 2023 and 2024, came with historically stacked rosters. The 2024 team had Stephon Castle, who went fourth in the NBA Draft, and Donovan Clingan, who went seventh. Four of the five starters were drafted, including two lottery picks. UConn won every tournament game in 2024 by at least 14 points. When you have that much talent, you're supposed to win. That wasn't coaching genius. That was a talent avalanche. And the one year the talent dipped? UConn was an 8-seed in 2025 and lost to Florida in the second round. Hurley fought back tears in the postgame interview and admitted he thought about leaving. One year after turning down $70 million from the Lakers. This year, he restocked through the portal. Tarris Reed Jr., who transferred from Michigan, was the East Region's Most Outstanding Player, averaging 21.7 points and 13.5 rebounds in UConn's first four tournament wins. Reed had 17 and 11 in the semifinal. Then he lost the championship game to his old school. Michigan 69, UConn 63. And the sideline act has been exhausting all year. He was ejected from a game at Marquette earlier this season and fined $25,000 by the Big East. During the tournament, he got a formal warning for charging onto the court. Then in the Elite Eight, he went forehead-to-forehead with referee Roger Ayers after the win over Duke in what everyone saw as a headbutt. He said he thought the ref was coming over to "chest-bump" him. Ayers was not assigned to work the Final Four. After beating Illinois in the semifinal, the crowd booed Hurley during his postgame interview. He looked confused. "Are they booing? I don't know what they're booing." Yahoo Sports: "When is enough, enough?" Former Michigan coach John Beilein publicly criticized his behavior. Hurley said he's not changing. The full breakdown of how the loudest coach in the tournament lost the championship to the quietest one is here: itsgame7.com/news/dan-hurle… Now look at the guy who beat him. Dusty May was a student manager under Bob Knight at Indiana. He spent years as an assistant at places like Eastern Michigan, Murray State, and Florida. He took Florida Atlantic to the Final Four in 2023 as a ninth seed. Michigan hired him in 2024 to replace Juwan Howard. Two years later, he's a national champion and USBWA Coach of the Year. He didn't headbutt a referee. He didn't get ejected. He didn't get booed by a neutral crowd. He just coached. Michigan outscored UConn 32-22 in the paint. Shot 25-of-28 from the free throw line. Trey McKenney hit a clutch three to put them up 65-56 with under two minutes left. Yaxel Lendeborg played through a sprained MCL and a rolled ankle from the semifinal because he refused to miss the title game. Two championship games this weekend told the same story. Dawn Staley wore a $2,300 Balenciaga jacket with no South Carolina branding to the women's title game and lost 79-51 to UCLA. Dan Hurley spent the entire men's tournament headbutting officials, getting booed, and telling everyone he wasn't going to change, and lost 69-63 to Michigan. In both cases, the coaches who won did it quietly. Hurley is a good coach. He's made three title games in four years. He won two of them. But tonight, a coach who nobody was talking about outcoached a coach who wouldn't stop talking about himself. Michigan 69, UConn 63. First title since 1989. And the guy who won it never once made himself the story.

@Rate_the_Refs I would have no problem with this call if refs had sane whistle for worse illegal screens Michigan committed like the one that Demary got called for foul

Offensive foul on Uconn. Dan Hurley is fuming

@Rate_the_Refs Yes but these types of calls rarely whistled in college

Should this have been called a travel for Michigan?

@KBOMFXXV Clear illegal screen

Deadass kicked my dawg in his stomach 😭

@BFW For a national championship game with two teams both playing very physical basketball- sorry but foul differential shouldn’t be that large

I know people thought UConn got a bad whistle tonight but they chose to play that way. It was the only chance they had. Fouls were out of whack in the first half but second half I thought it was even officiating. Michigan was just better.
