I’m not sure if they’re still popular, but do you remember the “Thanks Obama” meme phase we went through? Honestly, they were pretty funny, but those are going to serve a greater purpose here because I think there’s a direct line to be drawn between that sarcasm and the unwarranted criticism John Beilein takes for things that happen with Michigan basketball.
It almost seems like a yearly thing now where the Wolverines hit a tough skid (last year’s endured on and off for almost two months), and the “fire Beilein” crowd gets all riled up.
No matter if Michigan is sturdy or frail, Beilein’s recruiting always finds its way into the conversation, too.
