Famous last words by yours truly: "Michigan is done getting 5 stars due to NIL"
What happened? Bryce Underwood #1 player in the nation, Andrew Babalola 5 star OT, Nate Owusu-Boateng former 5 star, Nate Marshall Rivals 5 star DE, and ESPN 5-Star Ty Haywood.
Michigan's Class Finish:
24/7: #8, Composite #6
On3: #6
Rivals: #6
ESPN is hidden behind a paywall but Michigan was #9 prior to the Haywood signing. I think it's fair to say Michigan had the #6 class in the country.
Last summer when it was looking bleak, I think Michigan had the #40th class. Things sure did change during the season!
Let's talk some hoops. Does watching Michigan play give anyone else anxiety? They're so talented but those turnovers and missed opportunities drive me crazy.
Wolf: Is a poor man's Porzingis. He is so talented and plays so loose. If he could tighten his game up, he could be really good.
Vlad: Can dominate or miss a ton of bunnies and dunks. When he missed that dunk with about 2 minutes left, I almost lost my mind.
Donaldson: Could dominate if he focuses on assists instead of points. His points will come if he makes better decisions and focuses on being a better point.
Ninmari: Has turned into a really good shooter but sometimes gets lost on the floor.
Gale: My son thinks he is double agent for Ohio State. He does some real bonehead things on the floor sometimes but has the talent to go for 25 any night. He needs to really tighten up his game. His free throws won the game last night. I think he needs motivation, which would equal having a good game against Ohio State.
Tschetter: Can play and brings great energy, he just sometimes needs to turn it down and make the proper play. Like getting an important board.
Jones: Has talent but we haven't seen it at all this season.
Walters: Is a knock down shooter but needs to play better defense
This team needs Coach B on playing smart, not fouling, and not turning the ball over.

Not sure anxiety covers it. The turnovers piss me off. Guess cause it was drilled into my head take care of the effing ball. Sure way to watch a game from the bench: unforced turnovers. That and gassers for the next practice gave you a disdain for turning over the rock!
I know nothin ....but rate the Michigan class No 1, the reviews of Michigan's quarterback are off the charts and will be surrounded by lots of excellent players. Ohio State "bites the big one". A saying from high school.
Regarding the basketball team, let's not forget that this is a team basically thrown together all in one year a lot of new players all coming together so it's not unrealistic thought that they have a problem with turnovers it's understandable.. they have time to correct it before the tournament
Ron, welcome to college basketball in the 2020s. Many schools have rosters that are thrown together. Look at St John's! Pitino flipped his roster the past 2 season. As bad player movement has gotten in football, its worse in basketball.
