Good point on Gibson. Will be interesting to see how much Peedi and Gibson play together tomorrow… Hopefully it’s not a Steve Lavin-Evan Turner lovefest again on ESPN.

Dylan, looks like you can add 2011 Cheshire Academy PF/SF Eric Katenda to the next recruiting round-up. Gobluewolverine.com has a story on him. He’s 6’9″, so the quest for more height continues.

I know there must be good reasons–and I know he’s not the Second Coming–but I have found myself wondering what might have been if Beilein had managed to work Zack Gibson further into the rotation this season. So many games where the point differential was 6 or under; so many games where Peedi carried all the load down low.

AG2 – They are in the 20s because of Turner’s injury. It’s ridiculous that RPI gets factored in because of a scenario exactly like this. But if they win the conference tourney, then they certainly have a shot at a 1 seed. And who is everybody?

Will everybody cool it with this “OSU in the hunt for a #1 seed” nonsense!? Teams ranked in the low 20s in the RPI with SEVEN losses don’t get #1 seeds. Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, and Syracuse. Even losing to Georgetown, even losing Arinze Onuaku. OSU is a #2, and they’re not next in line for a #1.

LLP showed there might be hope for him.
This teams has zero killer instinct.
I think Morris sat for a time because a careless pass was followed quicky by a silly foul.
Don’t think they used a lot of energy today, after the early push they coasted.
Didn’t it seem like the refs were trying to take it into overtime, like the commercials.
Hope the confidence is there tomorrow, all we can do is our best and you need confidence to do that.

Even if the right Michigan team shows up tomorrow, I’m afraid we do no better than keeping it close for 35 minutes. OSU has gotta be hungry for that 1 seed.

ryan considering that they barely hung on doing that, I dont think it would have been wise to try and save our legs for tomorrow.

Stu douglass: 40 minutes
Manny: 38 mintutes
Novak: 37 minutes
heavy legs for Tomorrrow. Was there not a time when he could have thrown Vogrich in for 5-10 minutes just to eat some time?

Hey, I’ve seen uglier. Michigan definitely brought it to begin with, but then kind of limped through the second half. Let’s hope Michigan isn’t too tired for OSU tomorrow, they’re gonna need a HUGE game to beat Evan Turner and company.
