0:00.0	uncharted territory. That's where Michigan men's basketball is in a number of areas. Obviously in the most important part, Michigan has dropped now five in a row. They've gone three and ten since a three and o start, propelled them to a lot of national conversation, a lot of thought that maybe this team had reloaded and not needed to rebuild after losing a lot last season.
0:21.6	Since then, Michigan has completely changed the course of its season, not in the way you want
0:26.9	it. And in addition to being an uncharted territory from that standpoint, Michigan's an
0:31.6	uncharted territory with who they're having to play right now and how much they're going
0:35.4	to have to play those types of players. As it broke, the day before this game on the road at Maryland, Doug McDaniel will miss road games

0:47.0	So Jalen Llewellyn, who has not played a whole lot this season coming off the ACL injury

1:21.8	to have at the start of this season. And when you have McDaniel's suspension, along with
1:26.7	Trey Jackson being out due to concussion protocol, you have to get creative. And when you have McDaniel's suspension, along with Trey Jackson being out due to
1:28.1	concussion protocol, you have to get creative. And in a way that Michigan just isn't accustomed
1:33.1	to. And it led to another tough loss. Michigan, in almost a carbon copy of the defeat at the
1:38.8	Pellestra against Penn State, led by 12 at the break. But Maryland surged in the second half.
1:44.7	43 to 24.
1:46.7	They finally got going with their three-point shooting.
1:49.4	They were around 20% for the season from downtown against Big Ten foes
