At Least We Got Football


Posted by Beautiful Dreamer


Well Saturday was kind of a shocker when the Michigan Wolverines basketball team beat Penn State. It used to not be the norm to see Michigan losing on a consistant basis, but times have changed and we stand at 6 wins and 17 losses right now.

It doesnt look to be getting any better in the future as well.Maybe this is a transition year with John Beilein coming in, but with the previous 2 Mr. Basketball players in Manny Harris and Deshaun Simms on the team why are they so bad? It may be that the 15 year old Fab Five still is big enough in Michigan to recruit from the state, but unlike Michigan State who not only gets good players from the state of Michigan, they also get 5 star recruits from around the country. I am not quite sure when Michigan Baskeball will be able to be a contender in the Big Ten again, but i know this.

There is a better chance of Michigan State football getting better then the wolverines, then the Michigan basketball team getting better then the spartans. Neither one looks likely to happen anytime soon.

We will see if Beilein is all that he is cracked up to be and can bring in not the greatest recruits (Izzo will get them) and make them fit his system. For that to work we will need some great three point shooters. Between Sim, Harris, and Grady there is some hope, but it isn't the greatest. Too bad we didn't get Alex Legion to come here, he would've helped this year and for recuriting.
