College basketball fans and media took to social media to roast the Michigan Wolverines after an embarrassing home loss to McNeese State on Friday.
The Wolverines were down 40-37 at the half and ended up losing 87-76. Shahada Wells led all scorers with 30 points for the Cowboys. The Wolverines were dominated in the paint, getting outscored 42-14.
McNeese State is coached by former LSU coach Will Wade. The Cowboys have been solid this season, but this is still a tough loss for Michigan. The Wolverines are now 6-7 on the year and are looking unlikely to contend for a NCAA Tournament berth.

There must be and there will be a new basketball coach next season, unless the AD must be replaced first. Program is a total and complete dumpster fire. I loved Juwan and the Fab Five, but he just can’t sustain program.

Why are y’all still hurting yourselves by watching Michigan basketball? We sacrificed them to the sports gods for the football team. You know we can’t have both.

Michigan Men’s Basketball has a long, long road ahead of them. It isn’t getting any easier for them.
Get right or get left. Simple as that. #GoBlue
