WOW Smotz Christian and Brundidge all gone

If Burke leaves, then Brundidge and Smotz leaving actually matters. If he stays, then no biggie. Burke needs to stay. Please look at Harris and Morris as examples. Don't make the same bad decision.
 
They only one that shocks me was Smotz. And here I thought we would have room for Ziegler lol.

Me too

Wonder if he thnks he won't play

Brundige and Christian just didn't work out here and with the guys doing in we should be okay
 
Burke is too small to leave

They need to get rid of one and done

They shuld do what baseball oes
 
Burke's dad seems to be fishing for a reason to go but clearly anyone who watched M this season can see he's not ready for prime time at the professional level -- not by a long shot.

Agree on this
 
i didnt see much of him to say he couldnt dribble

He looked sloppy to me, but the biggest thing is he has no chance at being a pg and is barely 6'. Smotrycz at least could fill a niche on this team, I really don't know if we would have ever been able to say that about Carlton.
 
Not happy? Dude, you're 20 years old, with no major responsivilities and you're getting a free education to play a game you love! Sounds to me like you knew you weren't good enough, so u quit.
 
The truth with Smotz is that he was not good enough to keep us from going back to a 4 guard starting lineup. He isn't good enough to take a spot in the starting lineup next year because GR3 and McGary are going to be better than him. He was unhappy because he wasn't starting and he wouldn't be starting again next year.
 
Kids get homesick, get physically and emotionally drained while balancing that long of a season with classes on top of it.. If his head isn't here then it's a good thing for both parties. We shouldn't forget he was a solid contributor on Michigan's first banner team since ... You know when. He was a great student athlete for the University and should be treated with respect. I wish him luck.
 
just don't tell us you "weren't happy". That's like celebrities using the excuse of "Dehydrated" when they get wasted and go fruit loops.

I've been there. I understand and the only thing that can change it is a change of scenery. Look back to the video of the MSU vs Ohio game and the reaction of Smotz.. Not even a smirk, he had checked out.
 
Smotz is the only one that mattered. It kind of sucks for whoever gets him cuz he is pretty one dimensional.
 
To look on the bright side, this does open up 3 more scholarships, who would Michigan wanna go after?
