Michigan went blow for blow with Purdue in the first half and had a one point first half lead. Michigan certainly didn’t play perfect but they made enough plays even without Zack Novak. I questioned the ability of the role players to make plays on the road but for the first 20 minutes ...

... UM Hoops is calling the flagrant foul and ejection of Manny Harris absurd. He was kind enough to point out that when Harris was in the game we were disrupting his rhythm. This is a very good sign because he is one of the best individual players in the conference. This bodes well for our defense later in the year. ...

Yes, it is officially Bitch About Officiating Week in Ann Arbor. I may be late to the party, but I'll be damned if I'm not going to get whatever is left out of this Keg of Fury.

When a defined body part is used to strike an ...
