Blue stinks vs. FD U . 0.,hopes to smell better vs. Cats, By TIM MAKINEN DAYTON, Ohio Even if the Michigan basketball team had committed a cardinal sin of looking past first round opponent Fairleigh Dickinson, the Wolverines cer- tainly should not look back. Michigan stunk Friday night. The Wolverines nearly provided the hostile Dayton crowd with the "upset of the year" as they fumbled and floundered against the sixty-third seeded Knights before ultimately winning;59-55. Although the Wolverines deny taking Fairleigh Dickinson too lightly, they hardly looked prepared for the contest. "That was a good scrappy ballclub," said Michigan's Roy Tarpley. "We never underestimated them, but they shocked us the way they came out." Little went right for the Blue, which had best forget the "nightmare" of Friday. Michigan connected only 31 percent of its first half shots, and a hail of boos saluted the players everytime the Wolverine band struck up "The Victors." The Michigan guards were especially foul. Gary Grant and Antoine Joubert made all of four field goals in 17 attempts. A can of Right Guard, perhaps, would have been just as effective in the Michigan backcourt. At least it would have covered"up the stench. "It was scary, aohard feeling to describe," said Butch Wade. "We were down by ten and chasing them all over the court. You see no light at the end of the tunnel." Michigan actually may have gotten some breaks in the game. Tarpley was tagged with his fourth foul at 17:03 of the second half, Wade earned his fourth at 12:36 and Joubert was tabbed with four some minutes later. None of those players fouled out, while four of Fairleigh Dickinson's starters received early exits because of court infractions. The referees, in fact, demonstrated great leniency, maybe sympathy, in their calls on the Wolverines. Near the end of the first half, Tarpley twice fell over Fairleigh Dickinson's Fred Collins, but no calls were signalled. Garde Thompson then nearly mugged Collins, yet again the ref's whistle was silent. One reporter said he counted at least 12 fouls on Michigan that were not called. "You should quote yourself on that," said obviously perturbed FDU coach Tom Green. Green also was upset with the lack of respect giyen the Knights coming in- to the game. In particular, he set his sights on ESPN commentator Dick Vitale. "It might seem like it was impossible (to beat Michigan) to you," said Green, "but for eleven players in that lockerroom it wasn't impossible. We had 21 wins coming into the tournament, and I think we belonged here. "NCAA format has been here for quite'a while. Now if Mr. Vitale wishes to ride on the bandwagon and try to change the format, that is up to him. But don't penalize 18,19, and 20-year-old men who have worked very very hard to be here." Despite the loss, Fairleigh Dickinson did come out of the game smelling like a rose. The New Jersey school proved it could hold its own against the much bigger Wolverines, and that it did deserve its entry in the tournament. Michigan, on the other hand, left nothing but a queasy expression on the faces of its fans, and a more bitter look on the faces of those spectators hoping to see the number two ranked Wolverines tumble. "I hope these kids are smart enough and mature enough to realize how close they were to busing home (Friday night)," said Michigan coach Bill Frieder. If it's any consolation to Frieder and his troops, it would be difficult ever again to play as poorly as the Wolverines did. Friday. Now Michigan must get that horrid outing out of its system and concentrate on only the games ahead. A dreary bus ride home from Dayton is not the way to end a season like this. 4 4 14 A Associated Press Ohio State's Brad Sellers slams one in during yesterday's NCAA tournament game against Louisiana Tech.
