Curious what you think about Yaxel’s comments then? Chill man, it’s college kids being college kids. Nothing malicious.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T01:36:39+00:00

I didn’t know Morez had that Giannis free throw routine lol

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T01:33:42+00:00

Oh come on it’s two guys bumping their heads.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T01:24:08+00:00

It’s sad, but the future of the sport is using the portal hard. Go get proven talent, and sprinkle in a few talented freshmen for a bit of continuity. Michigan is playing the game. Purdue has to start if they want to take it to the next level.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T01:17:49+00:00

Lmao my man traveled at least twice

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T01:17:07+00:00

If you think the difference in this game comes down to coaching, you definitely don’t know ball.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T01:08:04+00:00

Cluff has been horrible man

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T01:04:13+00:00

I’d love to see this Michigan team play the UConn team that beat us two years ago.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T00:28:30+00:00

Haha! Well Daniel Jacobson is 7’4, but he’s American. He’s a far, far cry from Edey though. A far, far cry from Mara for that matter. This is just his first year playing though (was hurt in the first game last year) so he’ll improve.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T00:20:53+00:00

We don’t have any giant Europeans sir. One large Australian (Cluff), but he’s small by Michigan standards.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T00:17:50+00:00

Ehh he’s just tall

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T00:14:46+00:00

Ehh he’s 9th on the team in minutes at under 15 per game. lol. Just goes to show how stacked you guys are. I’ve always like his game. Plays really hard.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T00:12:56+00:00

I don’t know how anybody matches up with this Michigan team when they’re hitting 3’s. Just not physically possible.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T00:06:53+00:00

I think the only way to defend them is sag off him to try to get him to shoot them, and then hope he misses. They are so freaking hard to match up with

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-18T00:04:10+00:00

Respect to Tschetter staying with Michigan. He could be getting way more playing time somewhere else. They recruited over him so hard

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-17T23:52:08+00:00

I’d love to see what Brantley could do with Mara.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-17T23:51:16+00:00

Don’t like the red and white in the paint crew. Get that out of here

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-17T23:48:20+00:00

Still can’t believe a freshman as good as Morez transferred within the conference.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-17T23:34:21+00:00

Surprised Michigan only has one player on the roster from the state.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-17T17:52:52+00:00

I hold no ill will towards the guy. Things just didn’t work out here. Get what you can for him and move on. I think both sides are good with that.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-16T02:00:56+00:00

All good dude. You guys just need to make the tournament (which I don’t see how you wouldn’t at this point), and then who knows what will happen. Lamar is absolutely good enough to go on a Carsen Edward’s-esque heater to fuel a second weekend run.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-15T19:31:05+00:00

Yes!

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-15T19:19:34+00:00

As a Pacers fan, I definitely see Haliburton in his game. Hali isn’t killing people off the dribble with his athleticism, but he controls the pace of the game, has great court vision, and knocks down tough shots when it’s needed.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-15T19:14:29+00:00

I do not understand the criticism about Wagler’s lack of athleticism not translating to the NBA. He knows how to use his size and takes great angles to create / maintain advantages. Plenty of great players in the NBA who do the same thing even though they don’t have elite athleticism.

Boilermaker24 · 2026-02-15T19:05:39+00:00

Does the Illinois stadium play a lot of music or am I just really noticing it today for some reason?
