As much of a mess DickRod has their football program in, their gimmicky basketball coach might actually have a bigger mess on his hands. Next year, they bring back four (4!) players who have actually played a minute of CBB.

With scUMs athletic programs trending as they are, they could truly become the harvard of the midwest

Stu Douglass ? had an eFG of 42.7 and an offensive rating of 93.9 with a 15% usage rate. If Stu Douglass was a team, he would be Southern, a 5-25 SWAC team with the same overall eFG%. And those guys have to average 20% usage

It's nice for Cornhusker hoop fans that TTUN will provide the requisite fish-in-a-barrel for Doc Sadler's charges to use their ammo on.

the scUM hoops squad in Europe (and losing)

Wolverines Drop European Trip Opener to Gent - University of Michigan Official Athletic Site

still chucking up 3s and being unsuccessful (6/27)

this was supposedly the "worst" team they would face on their Euro trip (according to message board posts)

F*cking losers.

I read some UM fan reaction to the game, and all I can say is OMG! They are giving a fatigue excuse for the loss (i.e., they had traveled "halfway around the world" less than 48 hours before the game) because they got outscored by 12 in the final quarter. Yeah, the first game in five months and they were too tired to hang in there down the stretch.

Interesting facts from the Gent loss:
- UM combined to shoot 22% on 3s, which accounted for 40% of their shot attempts (shot 34.8% overall)
- Stu Douglass and Darius Morris, two "veterans" of sorts for them who figure to start this season, combined to shoot 1 for 9 on threes and 3 for 21 (14%) overall from the field
- Matt Vogrich, a lightly used wing last season, outrebounded each of UM's "centers" for this year (Blake McLimans and Jordan Morgan, both of whom redshirted last season)
- Beilein, on his website, gave the team a "C+" for their performance (I can only hope for many more "C+" performances to follow)

The only UM players to have good games vs. Gent statistically were Novak and frosh Hardaway Jr. Based on that game, Zach "sharp elbows" Novak is the top player on their team for this season.

UM lost their second game in Europe in as many days, suffering a 90-60 loss to Charleroi, according to Andrew Beilein against the best pro team in Belgium.
