Loaded Chicken Sandwich

I’m guessing both Durham and Smith. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Timmy was a hell of a defender. He’s just on a different level from the other 99.9999% of basketball players. Great offensive player with an unstoppable mid range bank shot, great defender and one of the highest IQ’s in the game. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

We should probably be worrying whether he’ll learn how to coach basketball or not. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Well they are ranked ahead of us in the NET rankings as of now. So if we have a chance, I’d imagine they have some sort of chance as well. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Man... sounds like something you should have realized a couple years ago... to do things differently. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Cody was athletic enough to pull off a steal at times and quick enough to make it back others. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Good. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

If Archie is here, he’s playing Durham 25+ minutes no matter how good he is. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

It’s clear he’s not learning on the job. He’s set in his ways and they won’t succeed here. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Gotta cheer for Xavier. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Jokic is good. Garza isn’t the passer that Jokic is and not even the defender. I’d say if Jahlil Okafor can’t succeed, who has way more talent, then Garza will likely be making his money overseas. He’s just not an NBA player. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I wouldn’t be excited about Tony Bennett. I’d probably go to sleep. I’d quit watching if we hired Fife. I’d be happy with Beilein. If we are going young, I’m going with Scheyer without a care. Want someone proven? Going with Pearl. Want someone that’ll work in the grey area but not Pearl and not proven, I’m going with Payne. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

He just fits well overseas. No way he could keep up defensively. And unless you’re James Harden or Kyrie Irving, you gotta play a little defense. Nikola Jokic might be his best comparison and Jokic was a 2nd rounder as well. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

But why draft him when you can just him in outside the draft? The 2nd round now is for kids with potential who may not see it yet and foreigners who will never play in the NBA. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

By the time Crean hit his stride, Beilein had hit his as well. Both in 2011-2012. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Well Kentucky fired Gillespie after two seasons. Made the NCAA his first and the NIT his second. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Well Texas will have an opening. And I wouldn’t be surprised if USC, UConn, Northwestern, Minnesota have openings. I’m sure there will be others. Maybe Texas Tech if Beard goes to Texas. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Team D may not have the resume but they are whooping basically everyone they play. So it’s clear they are good. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

So he’s only going to go somewhere that has a bunch of 3pt shooters? So he’s going nowhere? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Cool. Doesn’t mean Archie shouldn’t be fired. Just making the tourney shouldn’t save your job when no real progress is ever made. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

And in the NIT. He was clearly a step up from Amaker. And then 4 guys graduated from that NIT 2nd round team the year before Beilein. The 4 best players on Beileins first team was a freshman Manny Harris and a sophomore DeShawn Sims who went from 9.4 mpg to 28. They did have Ekpe Udoh who averaged the 3rd most points on the team at 6 and a freshman Kelvin Grady who the 4th most points at 5.6. That was a terrible team. His 2nd year though Harris and Sims made jumps under Beilein, he brought in guys like Zack Novak, Stu Douglass and Luval Lucas Perry who all shot 34+% from 3 as freshmen. And even though Ekpe Udoh has transferred out, they went to the NCAA’s led by a star sophomore in Manny Harris. Though they did lose to a 2seed Oklahoma team that had a sophomore Blake Griffin. His 3rd year wasn’t good and for a reason I’m not sure. They did have a rough non conference where they lost to Marquette, Alabama, Boston College, Utah and Kansas.

Before Beilein Michigan missed the NCAA tourney from 1999 to 2007. Then missed the first year of his tenure in 2008. Made the NCAA tourney in 2009. Missed in 2010. Then made the tourney in 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, missed in 2015, made it in 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Well Al clearly isn’t good enough to be starting. And might see the writing on the wall that his replacement for next season is either on the team or coming in. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

His point is clear. He thinks we’d run Beilein out of town because he didn’t win the Big Ten at Michigan in his first 3 seasons. But he also wasn’t getting worse by the year like Archie has. He also made that pesky NCAA tourney Archie has been avoiding. If we got Beilein, how many would actually transfer after getting a coach of that caliber?

Ohio State is now ranked #25 after winning 5 of their last 6. They seem to have righted the ship there. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
