KANSAS CITY, Mo. – D.J. Wilson slumped in a chair, staring at his locker. He buried his face deep in a towel.

Wilson ran through the mistakes. His mistakes. A missed lay-up. A poor box out.

“I missed a bunny,” Wilson said, after Michigan’s season ended Thursday night in a 69-68 loss to Oregon in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament at the Sprint Center. “I gave up an offensive rebound on the free throw. That’s four easy points, right there.”

After a heartbreaking loss, after this team’s magical run through March Madness had come to an abrupt end, Wilson didn’t blame anyone but himself.
