Michigan Men's Basketball: AKA the Michigan revenue sport that doesn't have an uber jaded fanbase waiting in the dark for failure.

Indiana about to take the lead, and are just toying with Michigan. Monumental collapse. 

[Tigerbomb13]

26-4 Indiana run. Wow

i hope you have learned your lesson, young fella.

Juwon needs to go.  He’s a great recruiter but he’s got no actual coaching acumen.  It’s almost a disservice to these players and their development to keep him in this spot that is way over his head..   The only relevant thing this team got better at this year was understanding how you are supposed to behave when someone disrespects you on the streets of Chicago.

That was a complete train wreck the last 10 minutes

Punchy The Clown - welcome back.    I missed the game, did Punchy threaten anyone today?   He's a joke.   His second season was a total fluke.

I think he was smart enough to realize Woodson had him by at least 25 LBS

But was Woodson raised by Chicago?

I think UM is still in the dance but probably now in the play in portion.   They have left themselves vulnerable to being pushed out with a few upsets in other conference tourneys.

i dont think this is true at all. i think juwan has been a really good coach and running pro schemes.  

the problem this year was roster construction and they were left with no wing players, only freshmen.  houstan turned out to be "just a shooter."  they lost two and a half nba players off last year's team and replaced them with true freshmen.

we'll see what they look like in the near future, but juwan isnt going anywhere unless he has another meltdown.

I don't thin Michigan's getting in.   They sure don't deserve it and it would be proper if the committee that decides it says the behavior of their coach was a main reason.  

[Motor City Sonics]

No 13-loss team (that didn't win a conference tournament) has ever gotten in.    Punchy & Crew should not be the mold-breaker. 

[Hongbit]

Bubble teams Oklahoma and Virginia Tech with big upsets.   Not Good. 

[CMRivdogs]

Love it when VaTech upsets Notre Dame in tournament play. It never gets old.

why dont you go root for another team?  

[Hongbit]

I think Michigan is in by the smallest of margins at the moment.   Wins tomorrow by either Richmond or Texas A&M could push them out.

Michigan State to play Davidson in a 7-10 matchup. Lot of people already looking towards Duke-MSU in the second round, but I could easily see Davidson going to the Sweet 16.

No word yet on Michigan, but two quadrants yet to be revealed.

[MichiganCardinal]

Michigan to play Colorado State in a 6-11 matchup, no play-in game.

With that game being in Indy, I have to imagine a lot of Michigan fans will travel. Very favorable landing for a mediocre basketball team.

There will be some fans but I’m not sure too many are going to travel for this team.  

Wisconsin lucks out getting first two rounds in Milwaukee

Michigan travels everywhere. Certainly more than Colorado State does. I would expect Tennessee to bring plenty up north for those games as well.
