  32.            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Michigan has a new men's basketball head coach. Dusty May has been hired as the new sheriff in town and was formally introduced in Ann Arbor earlier this week. Big changes will be coming to Michigan's roster and coaching staff in the coming days and to be prepared for some of those changes, I thought it would be a good idea to comb back through his six seasons at Florida Atlantic. Today we'll be looking at how the roster construction and coaching staff changed year by year, how their results evolved, and see what lessons can be learned for Michigan's sake:&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  33. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  34. &lt;h3&gt;Dusty May's Arrival at Florida Atlantic&lt;/h3&gt;
  35. &lt;p&gt;As has been repeatedly mentioned in the days since May's hiring by Michigan, the FAU program that he inherited was really bad. They had struggled for over two decades with next to no success, drifting from the Atlantic Sun to the Sun Belt to the C-USA by the time May arrived. The Owls had one NCAA Tournament bid in program history pre-May, a 2001-02 season that saw them go 19-12 (13-7 in ASUN play), finishing 3rd in the conference before winning the conference tourney to gain the autobid. They lost to Alabama as a 15 seed in the opening round, finishing 191st in KenPom.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  36. &lt;p&gt;That was more or less the program's high watermark before Dusty arrived. Mike Jarvis led the program into Conference USA, but most of their time in that league before May was under May's predecessor, one-time Detroit Piston player and coach Michael Curry. The Curry era was pretty terrible, as FAU went 39-84 overall and a woeful 19-53 in conference play. &lt;a href="https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/dusty-may-wanted-to-quit-hours-after-signing-fau-contract-now-hes-coached-owls-to-improbable-final-four-run/"&gt;Dusty May remembered years later about arriving at FAU&lt;/a&gt;: "I walk in the room and I&nbsp;started crying&nbsp;and said, 'I just committed career suicide,'" in reference to the dire state of affairs in Boca Raton. May would be building a program from scratch, one that was lacking in facilities comparable to even peer schools. As stated in the article linked a couple sentences earlier:&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  37. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The locker room had these old, ugly wooden lockers. It was exceptionally tiny. There was more square footage for the six showers than the actual space for people in the locker room. The arena sat 2,500, had an outdated scoreboard and looked superannuated. High school teams in the area were playing in better facilities.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  38. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  39. &lt;p&gt;May was handed a team that was disastrous. They were 12-19 the last season under Michael Curry, 6-12 in C-USA play. The team was 321st in KenPom offensive efficiency, compared with a 112th-ranked defensive rating. May got straight to work, hiring three assistants in Kyle Church, Akeem Miskdeen, and Erik Pastrana, and then re-assembled the roster. Curry's last team was on the older side and that contributed to May's first team having only three returners of consequence from Curry's final team. Those were Jaylin Ingram, a 6'7" wing who played just eight games, plus 6-1 guard Anthony Adger and 6-9 power forward Simeon Lepichev. The rest of the team was entirely new, which meant that FAU had only 15.3% of returning minutes from the year before, which ranked 345th in KenPom's continuity metric. It was starting fresh.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  40. &lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="21dc50fa-ca0e-461b-9f1b-6ec02dd67351" height="406" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/Dusty-May.png" width="721" class="align-center" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  41. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[FAU Athletics]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  42. &lt;p&gt;That first Dusty May team (2018-19) added players from a variety of sources. 6-7 wing Xavian Stapleton was a down-transfer from Mississippi State and 6-11 big Karlis Silins was a down-transfer from Ole Miss. He added three players from the JUCO route and then brought four recruits on board, two of which became starters in Kevaughn Ellis and Michael Forrest. This team had a remarkably international complexion, featuring a Bulgarian, a Serb, a Senegalese, two Canadians, and a Latvian. Players were acquired from all different means and the team was stitched together by the coaching staff.&lt;/p&gt;
  43. &lt;p&gt;Interestingly, they were a much bigger group than what May would have in his later years, starting the 6-9 Lepichev at the four and the 6-11 Silins at center, which allowed them to be a decent rebounding team. The team improved some over Curry's last team offensively but were still very rough (263rd in efficiency). They took a lot of threes, establishing what would be a hallmark of May's program, but shot them extremely poorly. They shot poorly from 2 as well, with an eFG% that ranked 298th as a team, just narrowly better than the 303rd they finished in TO rate. Defensively they were much better, 91st in efficiency, and that was able to carry the Owls to a 17-16 record in spite of the woeful offense. They were 8-10 in C-USA play, 9th in the league, which was a marked improvement on Curry's entire tenure. It wasn't pretty and it wasn't easy, but the May era started out on okay footing in Boca.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  44. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;[AFTER THE JUMP: the rest of the tenure and some lessons]&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  45. &lt;!--break--&gt;&lt;div id="read-more"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  46. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  47. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="050e4a9d-f995-4244-9637-98ba2bf121fd" height="372" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/b7e011db-364d-4d63-862f-795eca85ee06-Dusty_5.webp" width="660" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  48. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Palm Beach Post]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  49. &lt;h3&gt;May builds a program&nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
  50. &lt;p&gt;The next three seasons for Dusty May were characterized by improving offenses and middling defenses, with decent roster turnover as he continued to search for the right combination of players and coaches. After his first season assistant&nbsp;Erik Pastrana left the staff and was replaced by Todd Abernethy, who had been the head coach at&nbsp;Trinity International University in Illinois, after a run as an assistant at Ole Miss. Both Adger and Lepichev, the two main stalwarts from Curry's final team that May had been handed, departed in the offseason, leaving the now-healthy Jaylin Ingram as the last remaining inherited piece.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  51. &lt;p&gt;The players he'd added to that first team (both the recruits and the transfer adds) became the core of the second team, who ranked 134th in minutes continuity on KenPom. They added a new point guard in 6-0 Cornelius Taylor, who was a transfer from D2 Lincoln Memorial (then coached by current Indiana State head coach Josh Schertz). Taylor and Ingram were the highest usage players on that squad, which was a bit smaller than the year before with the 6-7 Ingram playing the four next to Silins at center. They ranked 151st in average height, albeit still taller than the teams that May would put together in the coming years.&lt;/p&gt;
  52. &lt;p&gt;The squad's record didn't change much in his second season (17-15) and their record in conference play was an identical 8-10. Their defense slipped some at the expense of an improving offense. They didn't get much better at shooting the 3, but they did at 2PT% and the TO rate improved significantly. On the other side of the ball, the defensive assist rate entered the top 100 for the first time, as we began to see more glimmers of the sort of team May would be building in the future emerge. In all, the offense moved up nearly 40 spots in efficiency, while the defense slid about 60 spots. The team dipped a bit overall, but remained inside the top 200 which for FAU, was a historical success.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  53. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  54. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0ce73e2d-91fd-4002-af0d-cfcefea54ca8" height="408" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/USATSI_19906019.webp" width="679" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  55. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[USA Today Sports]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  56. &lt;p&gt;Year #3 was the interrupted COVID year. The team took a hit when one of the group's highest usage players and best shooter, Richardson Maitre, transferred to Samford in the offseason, but they were able to offset it by improved play from 6-6 wing Kenan Blackshear, now a sophomore. He, Ingram, and Silins were the nucleus of the shortened 2020-21 campaign, which saw FAU post a 13-10 record overall and their first winning record in conference play (7-5). Perhaps what was most notable about this season was the addition of May's most impactful recruiting class, picking up four hugely impactful freshmen that would one day take his program to new heights, Johnell "Nelly" Davis, Alijah Martin, Nick Boyd, and Giancarlo Rosado. Toss in down-transferring guard Bryan Greenlee from Minnesota, and the new faces for 2020-21 would be memorable ones years down the line.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  57. &lt;p&gt;But in 2020-21, few of those newcomers were notable. The 6-0 Greenlee played PG next to the 6-0 Forrest, but Ingram, Silins, and Blackshear ran the show. The team's defense slipped for a third straight season, to 192nd, but their offense improved up to 174th, May's first top 200 finish in the metric. They were a dominant rebounding team and the biggest improvement to power their offensive improvement was drastically improved 3PT%. The Owls shot nearly 3.5% better than they had the year before from behind the long line, due in part to some of those new guards. Boyd, Greenlee, and Forrest all shot at least 37.7% from deep and the May team that had always been shooting a lot of threes were suddenly making a respectable amount of them. It is no surprise then, that their offense improved, even if the TO rate remained iffy.&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  58. &lt;p&gt;The 2021-22 season, year #4 of the May era, was the beginning of the breakthrough. He added a new assistant coach, with Drew Williamson (formerly of Virginia State) replacing Akeem Miskdeen and they turned over the roster again, ranking 140th in minutes continuity but losing their three highest usage players from the prior year. The solution was to begin playing more of the second-year players who had joined the program the prior year, with Davis and Martin beginning to poke their heads out for the first time. FAU added&nbsp;Vladislav Goldin from&nbsp;Texas Tech after being seldom used in Lubbock, while they scooped up Brandon&nbsp;Weatherspoon from the JUCO route. Both played roles on the team, as did Giancarlo Rosado, who started at C, with Forrest and Greenlee reprising their guard role.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  59. &lt;p&gt;That 2021-22 team was the first small team that May fielded. Everett Winchester suited up as a 6-6 PF and with Rosado as a 6-7 C, this team was small. Their average height was now down to 280th in the country, but the good news is, their offense just kept getting better. The Owls had the 129th best offensive efficiency, maintaining their lofty 3PT clip from the year before as Martin, Forrest, Greenlee, and Davis bombed away from the perimeter and the team finished with the #42 eFG% clip in college basketball. Their defense sat much in the same range as it had over the prior few years, 154th in this one, and the defensive assist rate entered the top 30 for the first time. As a team, their overall efficiency edged up to 129th and they were on the precipice of stardom.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  60. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  61. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  62. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="3d8486f4-1c49-4026-8450-1b948976404a" height="368" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/Florida-Atlantic-Dusty-May-e1679792830278.jpg" width="686" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  63. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Awful Announcing]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  64. &lt;h3&gt;The two tourney bids&nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
  65. &lt;p&gt;The easiest way to describe what happened or changed to cause FAU's miracle 2022-23 season was that they finally achieved roster continuity. Despite the age of the portal shaking college basketball to its core and upending mid-major programs that produce good players, May was able to roll over nearly his whole roster from the year before. A few players did transfer out, but they were mostly seldom-used deep bench players. All the core pieces returned, giving FAU the 26th-most minutes continuity in the country, a remarkable achievement at a program like FAU. Everyone (save for Everett Winchester, who graduated) came back, vaulting the Owls among the most cohesive rosters in college basketball for the first time in May's tenure.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  66. &lt;p&gt;And then everyone got better. Greenlee and Forrest were still there to man the backcourt, but Nick Boyd's return from injury and the addition of Jalen Gaffney from UCONN as a down-transfer gave them a deeper guard situation. They also became more comfortable playing a true four-guard lineup with the 6-6 Winchester out of the picture, meaning that 6-2 Martin was playing the three and 6-4 Davis was playing the four. Vlad Goldin became the starting center for the first time, taking a significant leap in his play, while Davis and Martin both improved to become the go-to usage players on the floor. With Weatherspoon and Rosado still around as reserves, FAU was deep and ready for an eruption.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  67. &lt;p&gt;That's what happened. They stomached an early loss to Ole Miss but did not lose again until February, eventually getting to 21-1 and ranked for the first time in program history. FAU dropped two games in conference play to UAB and Middle Tennessee but finished 18-2 in conference play to win the C-USA title in the regular season. The Owls followed it up with a victory in the C-USA Tournament and an autobid to the NCAA's, a dangerous 9 seed in the East regional. They drew Memphis in the first round, narrowly defeating the Tigers and being the beneficiaries of the massive 1/16 upset of Purdue in the first round. FAU then got to play Farleigh Dickinson and moved past them, into the program's first Sweet 16. Off to Madison Square Garden, FAU knocked off #4 seed Tennessee and #3 seed Kansas State, both KenPom top 25 teams, to clinch the program's first Final Four appearance. Despite leading #5 seed San Diego State basically wire-to-wire in the second half, FAU lost on a buzzer beater to the Aztecs, coming up one point short of an appearance in the national championship game and ending their miracle season.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  68. &lt;p&gt;The Owls finished the season 35-4, smashing all previous benchmarks for the best season in program history. They finished an astonishing 17th in KenPom, 22nd on offense and 34th on defense. They remained a strong shooting team from the prior year, but for the first time in the May era, they cleaned up the turnover problem. FAU's turnover rate was finally top 100, perhaps something you could chalk up to all that minutes continuity and familiarity among the roster. Their defensive assist rate was also 2nd nationally, the logical endpoint of a stat that May's teams had always been strong at. They rebounded well, they defended 2s well, and forced opponents into tough shots despite the team being very short, all the way down to 328th in average height. Their optimal lineup had just one player over 6-4 on the floor, but it was a combination that worked for them and it powered FAU to an exceptional Cinderella season for the ages.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  69. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  70. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="192282cc-6ffd-4695-a879-52d7f51de151" height="507" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/FAU%20final%20four%20getty.jpg" width="671" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  71. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Getty Images]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  72. &lt;p&gt;The hype coming into 2023-24 was probably unrealistic, because while FAU was a good team in 2022-23, they still outperformed their baseline in the tournament. Of course, they had immense continuity again, 1st in that metric nationally(!) as essentially the entire team rolled over, but some things were changing. The team was moving up from C-USA to the American Athletic Conference, giving them harder competition, and they scheduled a much tougher non-conference, with national contenders like Illinois, Texas A&amp;M, and Arizona on the schedule. There were going to be new challenges for Dusty May's squad and they did indeed rock the boat.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  73. &lt;p&gt;The team lost early to Bryant and lost late in calendar 2023 to Florida Gulf Coast. A loss to Charlotte a week later helped mar a picture of optimism, one that saw them beat the Aggies and 'Zona. There were good wins on the resume, but also some frustrating losses. They dropped four games in conference, a four point road loss at USF costing them the AAC regular season title, and then were felled in the semifinals of the conference tournament by Temple. The team fell short of expectations in getting only an 8 seed, drawing Northwestern in a game that the Owls should have won, fumbling it late in regulation and then unraveling in OT to end the season.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  74. &lt;p&gt;The 2023-24 team remained very strong on offense, 22nd in efficiency, but its defense slipped to 96th. Their 3PT clip dipped by a decent amount and they didn't take nearly as many threes as they had previously. Their rebounding sagged some as well, even as Johnell Davis and Alijah Martin had excellent seasons, with Goldin taking another step forward offensively. They were a very similar team to the year before, still playing four guards a lot and still one of the shortest teams in CBB, but the results for whatever reason, just weren't quite there. Still, their finish of 47th in KenPom was an example of how far May had taken the program, as a top 50 KenPom finish and a loss in the first round of the NCAAs was widely considered a disappointment. Just six years earlier, that would've been by far the greatest season in program history.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  75. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  76. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a9174275-bc2c-4f89-89c7-b9447c948aa8" height="457" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/53612897551_9f32dd7314_c.jpg" width="685" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  77. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Marc-Gregor Campredon]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  78. &lt;h3&gt;What can we learn?&nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
  79. &lt;p&gt;A few things stand out from scrolling through the years of May's time in Boca Raton. The first and most notable to me was the minutes continuity and how directly that was tied to his best teams. After his first team started from scratch, he spent three years with teams that had minutes continuity in the 100s, before cobbling together two teams that were among the most experienced and intact in college basketball. It is perhaps not unsurprising, then, that those were the two best teams that he had, the ones that saw the offense leap up as they cut down on turnovers. When Dusty had the opportunity to work with his players year-over-year, growing their game and teaching them basketball as a unit, the team's on-court results improved significantly. He didn't do it by hunting the portal for plug-and-play one-and-dones, he grew a team carefully and reaped the rewards of that maturation.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  80. &lt;p&gt;The fact that he was able to keep the roster together in Boca Raton says a lot as well. He lost a few pieces early in his tenure, Jaylin Ingram, Kenan Blackshear, and Richardson Maitre being the biggest, but that's still relatively little attrition for a program like FAU. And that he didn't lose any of his key players after going to the Final Four speaks volumes about May. The players seemingly buy-in to the coach and believe in what he is building. You need to recruit the right kind of players to have a culture that can be top of the country in minutes continuity back to back years, but you also need to be the right kind of coach. May seems to be that guy.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  81. &lt;p&gt;Secondly, his willingness to go many different routes to acquire players stands out. He said as much in his introductory press conference:&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  82. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our goal has always been to find the best players we can find and help them be the best they can be. So I don’t have an answer. We’re going to find the best players for Michigan, whether it’s international, whether it’s high school, from school, junior college, or portal, we’ll be on the hunt for the best players that fit us and want to be a part of this storied program.&lt;/p&gt;
  83. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  84. &lt;p&gt;That quote is absolutely backed up by the evidence. May recruited quite a bit, with arguably his two best players in Davis and Martin being HS recruits, but he also used the transfer route for both players who had played some at bigger programs (like Gaffney) and transfers who had not played much at all at bigger programs (Greenlee and Goldin). May also used the portal to import JUCO players, something that will probably not be as accessible at Michigan, but goes to show you how many different routes May is comfortable going and how many different vats of players he's evaluating from. Most of the American players he recruited were in his backyard, Florida specifically but also the South (he recruited quite a bit from Mississippi), though Johnell Davis came from his home state of Indiana. May didn't do much recruiting in the west, which may be notable.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  85. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  86. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="41948efa-2484-447a-bea2-5840ccae4e74" height="450" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/53613107503_97b9656bd5_c.jpg" width="675" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  87. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Campredon]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  88. &lt;p&gt;The international character of his teams also stand out. Many of these players he recruited from either American high schools or American universities (like Goldin), but he did recruit Bogdan Zimonjic directly out of Belgrade, Serbia. Over his time at FAU, Dusty coached players from Bulgaria, Serbia, Kosovo, Senegal, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Canada, Puerto Rico, Russia, and Latvia. It does not matter where you are currently playing or what nationality you are, if Dusty May thinks you can help his basketball team, he will find and recruit you. As much as many of us are thinking that May will be trying to import key players from FAU (which he very well might), this exercise goes to show that there are no stones May will leave unturned to find players and we shouldn't be surprised no matter which avenue he goes.&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  89. &lt;p&gt;Third, I found it interesting that his teams got&nbsp;&lt;em&gt;shorter&nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;over the years. His tallest team by average height was his first team and as he had more control to prefer different players over others, the teams got shorter and the roster piled up with more guards, up to his four guard lineups on the most recent teams. Though the lack of height is likely, to some degree, a factor of him coaching at a mid-major program that greatly limited the talent available to him, there was clearly some degree of selection going on here in the kind of teams May wanted to build. What the team sacrificed in size the last two years it gained in having four different players on the floor who could pass, dribble, or shoot and that seems by design. Whether that translates to Michigan and he continues to prefer shorter teams with guard heavy lineups will be something worth following. My hunch is he will roll with three guard lineups in Ann Arbor, while preferring more of a stretch four option who can help his teams continue to shoot threes.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  90. &lt;p&gt;Speaking of which, from a coaching philosophy standpoint, the linear progression of his teams' offensive improvement stand out. They always took a lot of threes and usually offensively rebounded well, but eventually he got the right players to hit those threes, and enough continuity and coaching was built up to cut down on turnovers in order to produce a top 25 offense two years in a row. By the time they were going to the Final Four in the spring of 2023, opposing coaches &lt;a href="https://theathletic.com/4357991/2023/03/29/final-four-anonymous-coaches-uconn-miami/"&gt;were giving quotes to&nbsp;&lt;em&gt;The Athletic&nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;gushing about how well put together the offense of May's team was&lt;/a&gt;&nbsp;($): "They’re the most connected team in college basketball. They make the extra pass better than anybody we played all year".&nbsp;His teams push play in transition and they have constant movement, passing, and cutting on offense. At its best, it is indeed, as May said in his introductory press conference, fun to watch:&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  91. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;
  92. &lt;iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen frameborder="0" height="315" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-1ipTthtlIg?si=3u9bYKJ8x2RnBIAg" title="YouTube video player" width="560" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  93. &lt;p&gt;Likewise, on defense, his teams' penchant for forcing opponents into isolation shots was there from the beginning. They've been top 80 in defensive assist rate each of the past five seasons and were still above average even in his first season when he was cobbling together a roster. That metric on defense, combined with the high volume of threes on offense, are the clearest indicators of May's coaching style instilling a philosophy. Still, he remains pretty flexible over letting his teams play different ways, which he also acknowledged in the press conference. He won't round peg in square hole this, and you can see this through how his teams evolved from having a center who shot the three some (Silins was not a high volume three point shooter, but he did attempt some) to a true back-to-the-basket center with no three point game in Goldin/Rosario the last two seasons.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  94. &lt;p&gt;All of this is to say that we should generally be ready for anything in following May's critical first offseason in Ann Arbor. There are some things I expect, like May importing familiar players from FAU (if possible) and I expect he will hire at least one assistant from FAU with the Owls hiring outside the program to replace May (FAU tabbed Baylor assistant John Jakus). Kyle Church was with Dusty from the beginning and Todd Abernethy was there for the past five years, so I'd watch those. I'd also expect May to target good three point shooters and will look to build up guard depth, particularly athletic, switchable guards with a perimeter game. But beyond that, we should be prepared for May to be flexible in his coaching style and go in different directions to acquire players, not just from the FAU well.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  234.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;My pet theory with the oompa-loompa squad is that he wants (to Alex's point) &lt;em&gt;players&lt;/em&gt; who can "pass, dribble, [and] shoot" at a high level, &lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt; he wants roster continuity, but he couldn't have it all at FAU and damn well knew it.&nbsp; If you can do all those things &lt;em&gt;and&lt;/em&gt; you're say 6'9", you're a top-100 player and not even sniffing FAU.&nbsp; Or even if by some miracle he pulls you out of a garbage heap, you're not staying there once the moneybags show up.&lt;/p&gt;
  235.  
  236. &lt;p&gt;Long story short, the &lt;em&gt;only&lt;/em&gt; players who met his skill demands that he had a hope of keeping at FAU were those too small to play elsewhere (&amp; a neglected throwback big in Goldin).&nbsp; In other words, he'd rather play "6-4 with good hands" at the 4 than recruit a PF-sized PF who can't meet his ball-skill demands.&nbsp; I'd imagine he's aware Michigan has the gravity to recruit talented wings in a way FAU couldn't, and won't bother with 3- or 4-guard lineups if he doesn't have to.&lt;/p&gt;
  237.  
  238. &lt;p&gt;We'll see though, I guess.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  318.  
  319. &lt;p&gt;He DID indicate that he wasn't keen on poaching his own former players at FAU.&nbsp; I respect that.&nbsp; There's something to be said for, "I built something there, and I'm not about to tear it all down just because I'm now here."&nbsp; They're FAU's players to him, so he might have that conversation but only if &lt;em&gt;they&lt;/em&gt; tell &lt;em&gt;him&lt;/em&gt; they're interested.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  607.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;The question with every coaching hire like this is essentially, how does it translate to major conference basketball?&nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
  608. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  609.  
  610. &lt;p&gt;His four guard lineups were likely the result of his desire to have the pass/shoot/dribble abilities at the most spots possible. The guys with size that have that ability aren’t going to be at FAU, so he &lt;em&gt;had&lt;/em&gt;&nbsp;to go small. That strategy also will not work in the B1G where teams will have the players with athleticism to match and the size/skill to take advantage of your lineup. You can get away with three guards, but four and you’re going to get eaten alive in the B1G.&lt;br&gt;
  611. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  612.  
  613. &lt;p&gt;It does sound like he’s willing to adapt though, so that’s a major positive. I’ll be very interested to see what direction he goes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  724.  
  725. &lt;p&gt;I was hoping for something more impressive. We criticized Juwan for not having any HC experience. Dusty doesn’t really have much either. His FF run seems more of a “flash in pan” than consistency.&nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
  726. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  728. &lt;p&gt;EDIT: let me be clear, DM has my full support, but this is a way riskier hire than I originally thought.&nbsp;&lt;br&gt;

  1018.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yes. That’s correct. Before reading Alex’s post, I thought DM was far more accomplished than this. Yes, he had that FF last year, which Alex kinda hints that luck played a big role in that (which is not really a problem - I’d rather be lucky than good!). Furthermore, many thought this was like a JB hire. This is nothing like the JB hire. JB had a lot more experience and accolades compared to DM when hired.&nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
  1019. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1020.  
  1021. &lt;p&gt;IMO, this is a riskier hire than expected, which I’m fine with because I’d rather catch a coach on the upward swing of his career. The fact that other teams like Louisville were after him helps me, but I was expecting a more accomplished coach, a lot more accomplished to be honest. It just seems a lot is put into the FF run last year. Without that, I’m not sure people would be wanting him.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I don't think it's a bad hire, but I'm not as convinced as most are that it's a home run hire. FAU clearly chose to devote more resources to athletics around the time May was hired (paying for Kiffin, for example). May did a lot of building through transfers and JuCo finds. His offenses were decent, but his defenses weren't good.&lt;/p&gt;
  1063.  
  1064. &lt;p&gt;He might have been the best option of the realistic candidates though. I wish we could poach more of an established coach, but that's where we're at. May seems like a good guy, and I hope he does well.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  1284. &lt;p&gt;Two years ago was supposed to be THE YEAR. It wasn't. Last year was not supposed to be THE YEAR despite having THE PLAYER. It also was not. This year was not supposed to be THE YEAR. So, will it be? I don't know. That would be&nbsp;&lt;em&gt;very&nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;college hockey, though. For a long time, it looked like Michigan wouldn't even make the Tournament. Their PK was in shambles; their defense gave up Grade As like Michigan State professors; and their roster looked like a MASH unit. However, as winter turned to spring, both the Kill and Blue Line units picked up their play. The bottom six rounded into form. Sans some erratic play in net over the last month, this team has never looked better.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1285. &lt;p&gt;Last year's freshmen are now sophomores. Transfers (grad and otherwise) have filled out several holes in the roster. The draft picks and elite talent are still there. The team really is starting to gel. The only issue is the draw. They'll most likely have to beat two top ten teams in order to make it to their third straight Frozen Four. Did they mess around too long and make their road too difficult?&lt;/p&gt;
  1286. &lt;p&gt;First up: the long time Badland-laden foe, North Dakota.&lt;/p&gt;
  1287. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1288. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font size="5"&gt;The Field&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1289. &lt;p&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Michigan’s Regional (Maryland Heights, MO )&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1290. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;(1) Michigan State, (2) North Dakota, (3) Michigan, (4) Western Michigan:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;Hoo boy! Hello, death, old friend. Well, at least MSU is the best possible option of a #1 seed to get. Obviously, they're good...we've certainly seen that. But are they significantly better than Michigan? Eh. Plus, after last Saturday night's fiasco sans Big Ten refs? I'll take it. North Dakota as the #2 seed, though? Ouch. Michigan doesn't exactly have the best tournament record against the Fighting&nbsp;&lt;s&gt;Sioux&lt;/s&gt;&nbsp;Hawks. Since 1998, the Wolverines are 1-3 against NoDak in the NCAAs. This isn't one of THOSE North Dakota teams, though. They're good, but not UH OH good. The Brooooooooncos are the final team. MSU does not get a pollywog as their opening game. They're at at-large #4 seed. Also...if we're going to have three teams from one state, maybe we should just play it...oh, never mind.&lt;/p&gt;
  1291. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  1361. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Last time... [Patrick Barron]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1362. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Things Michigan Needs to Do Against North Dakota (because David likes stealing Alex's thunder from the full preview on Friday):&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  1363. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1. Make a Save.&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;For most of the year, Jake Barczewski has been fine. Not elite, but good enough. It's mostly been the defense that has been the letdown. That has not been the case over the last month or so. Michigan's in-zone defense has been very good...aided by great back-checking from the forwards. However, four of Barzo's last five games have been questionable. While there are ways to make up for a struggling netminder, it's much harder to do in a single elimination tournament. If Michigan wants to take down a quality opponent, they're just going to need a great game from Barczewski.&lt;/p&gt;
  1364. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Keep Shooting.&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Ludwig Persson's SV% is just a tick lower than Barczewski's. Not drawing a Trey Augustine or Ryan Bischel in the first game is ideal. Only 6'0" tall, the NoDak netminder is forced to come out and challenge shots. Persson has given up at least three goals in six of his last ten games. He can be beaten. Michigan generally does well in puck possession and they do have shooters. Pepper Persson and pour pucks into the net.&lt;/p&gt;
  1365. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Bracket Blake.&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Jackson Blake, son of former New York Islander Jason Blake, is the best player for the Fighting&nbsp;Hawks. While they do have other goal scorers, Blake leads the team in assists...by 13. He's averaging 1.51 points/game. Jackson has also scored at least a point in his last 10 games and in 20 of his last 21. That's how you become the nation's second leading scorer. It goes without saying that he needs to be watched and tracked every time he's on the ice.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1366. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Final Thoughts:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Hmmm...I'm not really sure. I don't hate this matchup for Michigan. It actually feels really even. Michigan might have the slight advantage on special teams, but how many calls will there be in the Tournament? It kinda feels like this will be a tight game that will come down to the end...maybe even OT. Of course it will be OT. I think this could be Michigan's biggest obstacle in the Regional. Oh no...what if Keaton Pehrson scores the winner?&lt;/p&gt;
  1367. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alex's&nbsp;Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;you can read my answer on Friday&lt;/p&gt;
  1368. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peter's&nbsp;Take&lt;/strong&gt;:&nbsp;There is not a lot of difference statistically between these two team teams as they enter this game. Michigan scores almost a 1/2 goal a game more, but NoDak gives up 1/2 goal a game less. The Fighting Hawks have a goal differential of +47 and Michigan has a +44. The goaltenders, Persson for North Dakota, and Barczewski for Michigan, have almost identical save percentages at .906 and .907 respectively. The difference is going to come down to 3 things:&lt;/p&gt;
  1369. &lt;p&gt;1. Who will win the special teams battle?&nbsp;With the #1 powerplay in the NCAA, Michigan will need to cash in when the opportunities arise, having gone 1/3 last weekend against MSU. NoDak's penalty kill is 22nd in the nation, but what helps them is they are only whistled for 7.7 penalty minutes on average per game. The Hawks need to stay out of the box and minimize the opportunities that Michigan gets.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1370. &lt;p&gt;2. Who will play better team defense in their own zone? In last Saturday's game against MSU, the Wolverines started off playing good team defense, which was reflected by only surrendering 6 shots in the 1st period, but old habits kicked in and they started trading chances and ended up giving up a number of Grade-A opportunities. North Dakota did a total overhaul of their defense this year and at times it has looked good, but there have been a number of games where they were running around giving up a ton of scoring chances, and it bit them in the hindquarters in the semi-final last week against Omaha.&lt;/p&gt;
  1371. &lt;p&gt;3. Which team will win the transition game?&nbsp;This is an area where Michigan can excel. When Michigan forwards track back hard from the offensive zone, which they've been doing a lot this past month (noticeably the bottom 6 forwards), it allows the defense to stand up in the neutral zone and break up plays which gives them the puck back and allows them to reload and re-attack. If Michigan wins these three areas, it will be on to the Regional Final on Sunday.&lt;/p&gt;

  1443. &lt;/tbody&gt;
  1444. &lt;/table&gt;
  1445. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;David’s Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;This is a tough&nbsp;draw for MSU, I think. Great PK. Some talent, depth scorers. Also, the Broncos control possession. This will be a very interesting game. You know what? The rule states that Not All One Seeds Advance. Maybe this is that one. Is Cameron Rowe trustworthy in net, though? Probably not. But one time? Oh, alright. I'm convinced! The Broncos stampede to the Regional Final!&lt;/p&gt;
  1446. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alex’s Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;This is a very interesting matchup. The state of Michigan accounts for 25% of the NCAA Tournament field this year, a fact that makes my Michigander DNA very happy and this matchup is the beauty of it. MSU was the top dog in the B1G this season, while WMU was middle of the pack in the NCHC, albeit in a very&nbsp;strong NCHC. MSU has an edge in goaltending, as WMU is still trotting out one-time Wisconsin goalie Cameron Rowe, who is thoroughly meh. Both teams take a lot of shots (2nd and 3rd in shots/game nationally) and neither team has a horde of NHL-caliber finishers. They score through shot volume and systems rather than pure talent. Ultimately if both goalies are getting peppered, I trust the better goalie and Augustine is clearly better here. Give me MSU.&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1447. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peter's Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;After getting a number of live views of both of these teams, this should be a really fun game to watch. Western has stumbled quite a bit winning only four of their last ten games, and 2 of those were against woeful Miami. One advantage the Broncos have coming into this game is they had an extra week off, which gave them time to heal up any bumps/bruises and practice. Michigan State comes into this game fresh off their OT win last Saturday night but will be facing a team that is older, bigger, and has a lot more experience on the back-end. Goaltending, puck battles and puck retrievals will be keys to how this game unfolds. Both goalies have had a strong season, senior Cameron Rowe for Western and freshman Trey Augustine for the Spartans. Similarly, the two teams have almost identical in puck retrieval numbers, with Western having a miniscule 50.1% to 49.9% edge. The Broncos hold a 52% to 50% advantage in winning puck battles throughout the season. This feels even but ultimately, I'm looking for the #4 seed to upend the #1 seed. I'm taking WMU.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1448. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - David:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;I think the Michigan/North Dakota winner wins the Regional. I want to say Michigan wins and then wins again on Sunday night, but...I'm just not sure with this team. I think they've definitely tightened up a lot of their weaknesses, but...there always seems to be one thing. In the end, the&nbsp;Fighting&nbsp;Hawks&nbsp;outlast the Wolverines, probably in overtime. Something goofy happens and it sums up too much of the season, unfortunately. NoDak continues their NCHC dominance over Western in the Regional Final and books their trip to St. Paul.&lt;/p&gt;
  1449. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - Alex:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;Idk, I end up picking 1 seeds in all the other regions so I guess that means I have to pick against MSU here. Doesn't really feel like Michigan's year and NoDak was the #3 team all the way up until they flopped this past weekend in the NCHC semis. Give me Dakota over Sparty I guess.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1450. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - Peter:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;I project a Michigan battle with Western Michigan on Sunday where once again, I see Michigan heading to the Frozen Four.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  1455. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;(1) Denver, (2) Maine, (3) Cornell, (4) Massachusetts&lt;/strong&gt;: Wow, this is ROUGH for the Pioneers. They're the #3 overall, and they're sent across the country to face all local teams? Yikes. Now, their offense will be up for it, but can they hang on at the back? Remember the Maine! The Main Maines have qualified for the NCAAs for the first time since 2012! Or...maybe it's just the freshman Nadeau brothers. Cornell is also back! They were left for dead, but Massive Maroon ran the ECAC Tournament and is still skatin'. Lol the #4 seed is the host. The &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QgKaFfT0X8"&gt;Minutemen&lt;/a&gt;&nbsp;backdoored their way into the NCAAs with the right combination of wins by other teams on Championship night.

Not that I care about&nbsp;them, but...if this doesn't tell you things are broken, I don't know how to help you. UMass isn't great, but their goalie -whom Michigan saw in the second game of their series in Amherst- seems like the real deal. The crowd should all be fired up for this one. But the Pios are too much. Their offense makes Michigan's look meh. The Cale Makars hold their own for a while, but Denver is too much. Wagons...roll.&lt;/p&gt;
  1525. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alex’s Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Denver has been red hot as of late as their goaltending has improved significantly in the back-half of the season (Matt Davis has a .926 in the last nine games). UMass isn't very good, though I do love Michael Hrabal as a goalie prospect. Denver scores the most goals in college hockey by a wide margin, which my sources tell me is a good thing. Maybe Hrabal could steal this game for the Minutemen but Denver is clearly better and I'll take them.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1526. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peter's Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;The UMass Minutemen have been riding the wave of freshman goalie Michael Hrabal, who established himself as the #1 goalie early in the season in a series against Michigan. UMass is a team that scores by committee and didn't have a single player score over a point per game, and only two were above 0.75 per game. Denver comes into this game as the highest scoring team in the NCAA, with Jack Devine leading the way scoring 27 goals and 55 points in 40 games. The Pioneers have nine players who have scored 0.75 points or more per game this year BUT Denver has struggled to keep the puck out of the net. They have used three goalies this season which has given them a combined 2.92 GAA and .893 Save Percentage. The Pios only lose when they run into a hot goalie and even if Hrabal is good, I don't think it will be enough to stymie the high scoring Denver attack. Look for Denver to pull away late in this game and then face Maine in the Regional Final.&lt;/p&gt;

  1596. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;David’s Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;The Sizeable Scarlet didn't seem to figure into the postseason plans, but then St Lawrence beat Quinnipiac in the ECAC semis. So...here they are! I wanted to play Maine so badly. Stupid NoDak losing to Omaha. Cornell is hawt, get good goaltending, have some NHL draftees...seems like that's where logic lies. BUT I'M CHEERING FOR MAINE! They play like a lion's headdress, Bearing down into the Regional Final.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1597. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alex’s Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;It's been very neat having Maine back on the national scene this season. They're a fun story led by the Nadeau brothers, but the lack of depth scoring is pretty concerning. Cornell squeaked into the tournament by winning the ECAC Tournament, a pretty classic Ivy outfit as a team with really good numbers in part because they ain't played nobody. Well, sorta. Cornell mostly played doormats but they did beat Boston U and QPac, while tying UMass. Goalie Ian Shane is pretty good, with two great efforts in the tourney last year. I'll take Cornell's elite goal prevention unit and good goalie over a rather light offense in the Black Bears.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1598. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peter's Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;The Black Bears of Maine made huge strides in their program this year, which has been completely overshadowed by the two Boston teams, but they are not a team to be taken lightly. Maine is led by freshmen brothers Bradley and Josh Nadeau, whose 37 combined goals accounted for 31.4% of Maine's total goals. Cornell won the ECAC Tournament and are led by junior goalie Ian Shane, who surrendered a measly 1.70 goals per game and has a .922 save percentage in 32 games this season. The Black Bears are hungry and will chew up Cornell.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1599. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - David:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;This seems like a one seed that has it stacked against them. But, I honestly don't love any of the matchups against them. Even if you wanted to argue Cornell...it's not going to happen two years in a row. Maybe, in the end, this is a great Regional for Denver? I guess it is. Wagons rollin' up to St. Paul!&lt;/p&gt;
  1600. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - Alex:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;Denver is the clear best team in this region. If they get goaltending, as they have been recently, they're probably the best hope to stop BC from winning the title. They've got a good mix of veteran college hockey talent without a ton of pro interest (Jack Devine, Massimo Rizzo) with some more legit pro prospects, like the Buium brothers and Tristan Broz. More importantly, DU is impeccably coached by David Carle, who is going to be an NHL head coach sooner or later. I don't love Maine or Cornell, let alone UMass, and so I see Denver taking this one.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1601. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - Peter:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;Denver and Maine will meet in the Regional Final in my projections and while adding to the lore of Maine's miracle season would be neat, the Pioneers roll on to the Frozen Four.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Boston College is a WAGON. Absolutely loaded. First rounders for days and elite goaltending? Yikes. The Cheese Rodents had a better start to the season but could not find a way to beat Ohio State (!) in their final month, losing four times in five games. They have good goaltending numbers, but does anyone believe it? Quinnipiac is Quinnipiac, but not quite last year's National Champion version. The Techies...are also there...much to Alex Drain's chagrin.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  1675. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;David’s Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;Does it really matter? Will either team clips the wings of the Mighty Eagles of Chestnut Hill? Probably not. But...still a game to play! Wisconsin feels like a little better version of the Pollsters. However, Q-Pac hasn't lost in two months...except for a couple of games to St. Lawrence. Of course. I don't think Q repeats as champions, but their defense does not end in the first round. The Badgers are frauds! Frauds, I tell you!&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1676. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alex’s Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Wisconsin is one of the turnaround stories of college hockey and Mike Hastings did a phenomenal job with this group. It did seem like the Badgers lost some of their luster as the season went along, starting 19-4 and finishing the year 7-7-2 in the final 16 games, including a number of stumbles against Ohio State. Quinnipiac has a lot of similar players off their title team from last year but lost goalie Yaniv Perets. Their record and possession metrics are elite like always, but they play in the ECAC so take it fwiw. I don't really like either of these teams and I think this is a very favorable draw for BC. Flip a coin and that can decide it. My coin says QPac.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1677. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peter’s Take&lt;/strong&gt;:&nbsp;This is a matchup between regular season champion QPac and Wisconsin, who narrowly lost out on the B1G regular season title. The Bobcats still play a very disciplined defensive system and are led offensively by senior Colin Graf with 48 points and 22 goals in 32 games. Their goaltending has been very good, with senior transfer Vinny Duplessis coming in and posting a 1.93 GAA and a .918 save percentage but Quinnipiac's defense gives him help. Wisconsin brings a lot of depth to their scoring attack, with 13 skaters who registered double digits in scoring. Their undisputed leader is goaltender Kyle McClellan who led the nation with a .931 save percentage in 36 games played. This battle will be more than Quinnipiac can handle, so look for the Badgers to beat up on the Bobcats.&lt;/p&gt;

Elite PP, PK, Goaltending, Superstars, Depth. How do they lose? Random plink-o tournaments. Check! Regardless...it won't be in the first round. In fact, I expect a&nbsp;stomp. Perhaps Blake Pietila plays out of his mind and keeps the Techies in it for a while. Like last year, though, eventually the dam breaks and the Eagles swoop the net and carry the Huskies away. BC and it's not close.&lt;/p&gt;
  1749. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alex’s Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;Hockey is hockey and Tech is hot, *yada yada* but this is not a good Michigan Tech team and Boston College is insanely good. We've seen how the 1/16 matchups between elite NHL talent teams and the sacrificial lamb teams have gone in recent years. Blake Pietila is definitely a good college goalie but is he ready for the assault of NHL shooters? Probably not to the extent that is needed to deliver a victory for the Huskies.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1750. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peter’s Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;Boston College is the juggernaut of the NCAA this season, the only team this year to win over 30 games… 31 so far. They boost the 2nd highest scoring lineup (trailing only Denver) and have a staggering +86 goal differential. They have four of the top seven scorers in the NCAA and freshman goalie Jacob Fowler leads the league in wins, is 5th in Save Percentage, and is 10th in Goals Against Average. The chances of Michigan Tech keeping this game closer than a four goal loss are bleak at best, and their only chance of a stunning upset would be their 5th year standout goalie Blake Pietila channeling the goalie ghosts of Ken Dryden and Terry Sawchuck to shut down what is sure to be an onslaught by B.C. Look for the Eagles to advance to the Regional Final.&lt;/p&gt;
  1751. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - David: &lt;/strong&gt;This regional sets up perfectly for Boston College. They're an hour south of their campus. Their two seed has faded in the second half of the season. They draw an upset automatic qualifier. Maybe Quinnipiac goalies their way to a monumental upset? I don't think so. It's really hard to see anyone but BC coming out of this group.&lt;/p&gt;
  1752. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - Alex:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;If you go off of KRACH ratings, this Boston College team is the best college hockey team of the past 20 years and the best of the past decade by a wide margin. It will be a substantial surprise if they do not win the national title. If you were making a list of the top drafted prospects not currently in the NHL, roughly 3 of the top 6 or 7 would be on this BC team and they also have .925 goaltending from the 6th goalie off the board in last year's NHL Draft. None of QPac, Wisconsin, or Tech are anywhere close to that level. BC has to be the pick until they actually lose.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1753. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - Peter:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;I have Wisconsin and Boston College doing battle in the Regional Final,&nbsp;where the Badgers will see their&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  1754. season come to an end unless McClellan can have the game of his life. He won't and BC advances.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

So...BU has Macklin Celebrini. &lt;a href="https://youtu.be/q8Wm1W9XLpo"&gt;He's pretty good&lt;/a&gt;. They also have a couple Hutsons. Also not too bad. But they get shipped to Sioux Falls because of a #4 seed host. LOLege Hockey. Minnesota is...unremarkable. Michigan played them three times in the last few weeks, and I came away...bored? The last couple iterations of Minnesota were a lot better. Omaha is...hosting...the Sioux Falls Regional? &lt;a href="https://youtu.be/4V0TYIO6yv4"&gt;HUH?&lt;/a&gt;&nbsp;Do they own Interstate 29...two states away? I don't even. So, let's send RIT to South Dakota, too. Sure...that's completely fitting with everything else.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  1826. &lt;/table&gt;
  1827. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;David’s Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;If there's a game to miss, this might be it. I'm not even really sure what to diagnose about either of these teams. I suppose if UNO plays their cards right, they have a good chance at an NCAA Tournament win. Minnesota probably gets some magic from Jimmy Snuggerud, and I'll have to listen to Ryan Zuke tell me about how awesome he is again. Are you betting on Minnesota, Zuke? The Gophers play a couple of Draw 4's to Skip their way to the Regional Final.&lt;/p&gt;
  1828. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alex’s Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Minnesota has been a solid tourney team all year, doing a lot of things well but nothing excellently. They have some pro talent, have some scorers, can check and defend decently well, get solid goaltending from ole Justen Close. Nothing jumps off the page but they've been comfortably a top 10 team nationally all year. Omaha on the other hand had to win two games with their season on the line to get by CC in the quarters of the NCHC Tournament, then had to beat NoDak in the semifinals to officially crack the NCAA Tournament. Minnesota's the better team, Omaha is probably hotter. I'm predicting that this one goes to OT and Minnesota squeaks it out.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1829. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peter’s Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;This game has the potential to be one of the most heated games in the first round of any of the Regionals. Omaha has been one of the hottest teams in the country the last 2 months, going 12-3 in their past 15 games. Sophomore goalie Simon Latkoczy has been a rock between the pipes, surrendering only 22 goals in the past 14 games. Minnesota, last year's Tournament runner-up, comes into this game looking to find their offense. Ranked 10th in the nation scoring 3.5 goals per game, they were only able to score 3 in an OT winner over Penn State and then 1 goal against Michigan in the Big Ten Tournament semi-final game. Jimmy Snuggerud has 21 goals on this season but the big question will be how Minnesota's defense and goalie Justen Close will respond to the relentless forechecking and net front presence that Omaha brings. Look for the Mavericks to pull out a close one.&lt;/p&gt;

  1899. &lt;/table&gt;
  1900. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;David’s Take:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;While my hometown Tigers do have good numbers across the board (sans the drafted skaters), this is where quality of competition comes into play. They did beat Notre Dame and New Hampshire this year. That's something. It's also not beating BU. I don't think they're beating BU. No, they aren't beating BU. The Terriers send the Tigers to the dog house. BU gets an extra couple days in Sioux Falls...lucky!&lt;/p&gt;
  1901. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alex’s Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;Hmmmm top notch team with NHL talent against the Atlantic Hockey autobid... I feel like I've seen this one before. Give me the Terriers with no explanation needed.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1902. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Peter’s Take:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;In any other year, Boston University would be considered the best team in the country, but their nemesis Boston College earned that honor which leaves BU as the bridesmaid. That being said, they are a really good team that features the offensive wizardry of likely Hobey Baker winner Macklin Celebrini and the dynamic defenseman Lane Hutson. After that there is a noticeable drop off in skill but that is overcome with a lot grit. Their opponent, RIT, won the Atlantic Hockey Tournament (as expected) and received the auto-bid to the tournament. They bring a balanced attack in scoring and have the 13th ranked power play in the nation along with the 4th best penalty kill. Unfortunately, RIT played in the weak Atlantic Hockey Conference and their only game played against a tournament team was against Maine when they lost 5-2. Look for the Terriers to roll past the Tigers into the Regional Final.&lt;/p&gt;
  1903. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - David:&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;Boston vs Minnesota! Just like Tampa! Just like the late 70s! #RealCollegeHockey Okay, I'll give you the clips. &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toyLf_LANkc"&gt;First.&lt;/a&gt;&nbsp;And &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3GhcYzykZw"&gt;Second.&lt;/a&gt;&nbsp;Yeah, that's the stuff. Give me more Minnesota and Boston. Lucky Sioux Falls. Last year, I watched Minnesota shut Boston down and run them outta the rink. This year, it's the opposite. The Terriers want their revenge. They'll get it...in spades...and neutered Gophers.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1904. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - Alex:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;BU got out to a terrible start to the season, getting skunked by the NTDP and losing to a not good Notre Dame team and an iffy New Hampshire team, while barely beating Bentley. Since then they've only been seriously stopped by their arch-rivals in BC, with a couple of flukey one-goal losses to Northeastern (both in OT) and tourney teams Cornell/NoDak tossed in. If BU goes down in this regional it'll probably be a one-goal OT loss. I don't think they will though, because they've been so good and I don't think terribly highly of the other teams in this regional. Like Adam Fantilli last year, Macklin Celebrini wills his team to the Frozen Four.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  1905. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Regional Winner - Peter:&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;I have Omaha and BU doing battle for a trip to the Frozen Four and I'll take the better team, the Terriers advancing to St. Paul.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Honestly I'm just happy we pulled our act together enough to make the tourney, and I'll be very pleased if we can keep the final score respectable. Even 4-1 would be fine. Just not another 8-0 debacle like last year (even though I can definitely see that happening). Go huskies!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  2472.  
  2473. &lt;p&gt;He made great saves late in the MSU game.&lt;/p&gt;
  2474.  
  2475. &lt;p&gt;We failed multiple chances to clear on their 2nd and 4th goals,&lt;/p&gt;
  2476.  
  2477. &lt;p&gt;The team gets a pass on the 4th goal because the 3rd was such a bad call?&lt;/p&gt;
  2478.  
  2479. &lt;p&gt;But the goalie gets blamed??&lt;/p&gt;
  2480.  
  2481. &lt;p&gt;Not counting that one, he was beaten for goals 3 times. in regulation, the 2 on which we had chances to clear the zone and the first on which he had no chance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

If so, what kind of officiating are we getting in the NAHL or in High School hockey?&lt;/p&gt;
  2748.  
  2749. &lt;p&gt;I also suspect that replay (in all sports) has made officiating worse. Officials do a MUCH better job in "real time" of keeping their bias out of their calls--a bang-bang play on the ice and you don't even notice who is wearing which color jersey. But on replay, it's going to be hard to keep your subconscious and conscious biases out of your calls because you know exactly who will benefit and who will be hurt when you call that phantom goal.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  2870.  
  2871. &lt;p&gt;But there are situations where officials are asked to review a judgement call. Did the goalie have it covered before it was knocked in by the other team? Was the knee-to-knee collision intentional or unintentional? Was the check to the player's back or his side?&lt;/p&gt;
  2872.  
  2873. &lt;p&gt;When you give the ref time to reflect on judgement calls, their judgement doesn't seem to get any more accurate.&nbsp; Like they say when you are taking a standardized test, your first guess is more likely to be right than your second.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  2914.  
  2915. &lt;p&gt;Of course, what would really be interesting is if Michigan were playing in Grand Forks and Western were playing at MSU. You'd sell 15k+ tickets and both places would be electric. It's amazing that people are trying to keep the old system when *that* is available.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  3072.  
  3073. &lt;p&gt;I don't really see a downside here. That skater is a buffer against an on-ice injury or a different guy struggling.&lt;/p&gt;
  3074.  
  3075. &lt;p&gt;Yeah, it's hard to get into the flow of the game if that guy isn't getting ice time and the coaches shouldn't be putting him out there&nbsp;&lt;em&gt;just&nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;to get said ice-time, but there's really no downside. The guy gets to dress when he otherwise wouldn't and he has an outside shot of playing for the reasons mentioned above.&lt;/p&gt;
  3076.  
  3077. &lt;p&gt;I don't have a problem with it.&lt;/p&gt;
  3078.  
  3079. &lt;p&gt;Also, was anyone else really annoyed by MSU's backup goaltender standing the entire time at Munn? Every time Michigan was in the offensive zone on the left of the broadcast and the puck would come out to the blue line near MSU's bench, there would be a white sweater right there. A few times I thought Michigan was about to give up a breakaway and the other times you couldn't see what was going on at that part of the ice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Jeff Goodman asserted that &lt;a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sGILTDPsdY"&gt;May had received assurances&lt;/a&gt; that admissions wasn't going to be as much of a problem for him as it was for Juwan Howard, something that Sam Webb said he had not heard. My assumption is that this is a game of telephone several persons downwind of &lt;a href="https://247sports.com/college/michigan/longformarticle/dusty-may-hired-to-be-new-michigan-basketball-coach-by-warde-manuel-charles-ramsey-john-beilein-229270624/#2393845"&gt;this conversation&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
  3134. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Sources say Beilein sat in on the first hour or so of the meeting between Manuel and May, answering a number of basketball specific questions about how he built his program, how he recruited, and how he dealt with admissions. It was a meaningful assist.&lt;/p&gt;
  3135. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  3136. &lt;p&gt;I doubt there has been a conversation between Santa Ono and the dean of LS&amp;A about letting guys into school, unfortunately.&lt;/p&gt;
  3137. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Staffers&lt;/strong&gt;. Potential names from 24/7's Davis Moseley:&lt;/p&gt;
  3138. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;&lt;p dir="ltr" lang="en"&gt;Got some interesting names to monitor in various staff roles:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  3139. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  3140. LaVall Jordan, Bill Armstrong, Adam Howard, John Beilein.&lt;/p&gt;
  3141. &lt;p&gt;— Davis Moseley (@DavisMoseley) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/DavisMoseley/status/1771955730263785895?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;March 24, 2024&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
  3142. &lt;script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;p&gt;Two of those names will be familiar. Adam Howard is a grad assistant at Indiana currently who knows May well; Indiana fans are &lt;a href="https://247sports.com/college/indiana/board/105672/Contents/adam-howard-229256791/?page=1"&gt;bizarrely upset&lt;/a&gt; at the prospect of losing him because they credit him with a lot of the recruiting grunt work. Bill Armstrong is a wild name: he was the associate head coach at LSU until Will Wade got sent to Bolivia by the NCAA. He's cooling his heels at Link Academy—the school Tarris Reed was at—this year. If that came to fruition that would be your recruiting guy, I'd imagine. I'm skeptical it does.&lt;/p&gt;
  3143. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;[After THE JUMP: portal time]&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  3144. &lt;!--break--&gt;&lt;div id="read-more"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  3145. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Get ready to learn Spanish, buddy&lt;/strong&gt;. This tidbit in an Athletic article from before last year's tournament is fascinating:&lt;/p&gt;
  3146. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;[May] had always loved the Spanish Liga ACB. “It’s much closer to the college game than the &lt;a href="https://theathletic.com/nba/"&gt;NBA&lt;/a&gt;,” he says. He was able to study those offenses like never before, even landing on Zooms with some of the league’s top coaches.&lt;/p&gt;
  3147. &lt;p&gt;May added to his playbook and also identified some professional players who shared some similarities to his players, then figured out what type of actions they thrived in. For starting center &lt;a href="https://theathletic.com/college-basketball/player/vladislav-goldin-4epHe8U8lWfSxK1k/"&gt;Vladislav Goldin&lt;/a&gt;, he looked at how Fenerbahce utilized Jan Veselý in the pinch post. A lot of the ball-screen action Goldin is involved in is stolen right from the ACB.&lt;/p&gt;
  3148. &lt;div class="embed-container"&gt;
  3149. &lt;iframe allowfullscreen frameborder="0" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wLA1heO0OiQ" title="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLA1heO0OiQ" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  3150. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  3151. &lt;p&gt;May has recruited a lot of European players over his tenure at FAU; Goldin is Russian. This 24/7 article &lt;a href="https://247sports.com/Article/going-overseas-how-european-basketball-has-helped-maximize-faus-offense-204842498/"&gt;goes into more depth&lt;/a&gt; on that:&lt;/p&gt;
  3152. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;“It’s such a team brand of ball. There’s ball movement, player movement, there’s physicality. It’s something that I’ve enjoyed watching and always tried to steal pieces of,” May said. “It’s probably not as different from college, and the NBA as people say. It’s just stylistically something that our staff, we appreciate, we value and we definitely borrow things from.”&lt;/p&gt;
  3153. &lt;p&gt;Off-ball movement is an advantage for any team, but its success against zone defenses separates the offense. Unlike the NBA, where most teams play man-to-man coverage, zone is a major part of college basketball defenses, even if it’s just a change of pace from their base defense.&lt;/p&gt;
  3154. &lt;p&gt;“European basketball plays zone a lot, so it’s really an extension of college basketball,” said Davis, who’s now the head coach at Detroit Mercy.&lt;/p&gt;
  3155. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  3156. &lt;p&gt;Both articles go to great lengths to describe May as a guy who is constantly searching for new stuff to put in his offense.&lt;/p&gt;
  3157. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A couple of portal names&lt;/strong&gt;. Wisconsin's Connor Essegian &lt;a href="https://wisconsin.rivals.com/news/wisconsin-s-connor-essegian-enters-the-transfer-portal"&gt;hit the portal&lt;/a&gt; yesterday after a disappointing sophomore year. Essegian was an instant starter for Wisconsin as a freshman; he lit up Michigan for 24 and 23 points. This year his minutes evaporated:&lt;/p&gt;
  3158. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;In the season opener, Essegian was landed on and suffered a back injury just over five minutes into his season. The lingering effects of the back injury caused Essegian’s play to suffer, starting with glaring lapses defensively and eventually bleeding into his offensive game.&lt;/p&gt;
  3159. &lt;p&gt;"We can't afford to let him play through it," Gard said of Essegian in mid-December. "The stakes are too high in terms of what this team wants to accomplish."&lt;/p&gt;
  3160. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  3161. &lt;p&gt;Essegian torching Michigan was particularly painful because the television broadcast kept putting up pictures of a ten-year-old Essegian at Crisler decked head-to-toe in Michigan gear. If May's interested it's likely to be mutual.&lt;/p&gt;
  3162. &lt;p&gt;EMU's &lt;a href="https://kenpom.com/player.php?p=49755"&gt;Tyson Acuff&lt;/a&gt;, who went to Cass, is also in the portal as a grad transfer. Acuff was a 30% usage guy with a 105 ORTG on a very bad team, so he could probably be relatively efficient if that usage was slashed. His younger brother is &lt;a href="https://247sports.com/player/darius-acuff-jr-46141064/"&gt;a big-timer in the 2025 class&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
  3163. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;More vibes&lt;/strong&gt;. Local high school coaches &lt;a href="https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/sports/2024/03/25/dusty-mays-hire-at-michigan-a-bummer-for-south-florida-basketball/73093708007/?utm_campaign=snd-autopilot&amp;utm_medium=social&amp;utm_source=twitter_pbpost"&gt;love May&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
  3164. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;“He’s not one of those guys that’s going to be overwhelming with energy,” O’Connell said. “But he’s such a class guy, you just trust in him. There’s no doubt he’s going to be able to sell his program at Michigan. He treats everybody with so much respect.&lt;/p&gt;
  3165. &lt;p&gt;“Everybody I talk to, every college coach I know, nothing but glowing remarks about Dusty. Everything was always so positive. He had to be one of the most popular people in the college game. Every assistant coach, every head coach, knows Dusty.”&lt;/p&gt;
  3166. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  3167. &lt;p&gt;He opened a lot of practices to them; I'd imagine the same will happen in Ann Arbor.&lt;/p&gt;
  3168. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spring items&lt;/strong&gt;. Spring ball is underway and dubious information is starting to leak into the wider world. Sherrone Moore had a press conference; in it he &lt;a href="https://247sports.com/college/michigan/Article/sherrone-moore-cites-four-defensive-standouts-from-michigans-first-spring-practices-229042825/"&gt;named a few defensive players&lt;/a&gt; as early risers:&lt;/p&gt;
  3169. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;DJ Waller&lt;/b&gt;, who played a little bit last year, he's been awesome. He's been super impressive, super long, super athletic. He's going to be a phenomenal player. &lt;b&gt;Jyaire Hill&lt;/b&gt;, call him 'Sug, he's phenomenal. He made two big plays yesterday, he's been awesome.&lt;/p&gt;
  3170. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  3171. &lt;p&gt;Defensive ends TJ Guy and Enow Etta also came in for praise, so pencil those guys into the two-deep. Meanwhile, CB2 is the biggest question mark on the defense for the second consecutive year—give or take who starts with Ernest Haussman at LB—so you have to take spring chatter about them in context. Waller was playing in the first half of games last year so there's at least a little meat on the bones.&lt;/p&gt;
  3172. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Talent resumes entering&lt;/strong&gt;. Brandon Naurato's first real class has a number of high-end talents in it. Scott Wheeler of the Athletic ranks incoming forwards Michael Hage (#14), Matvei Gridin (#37), and Christian Humphreys (#47). Aidan Park makes his honorable mentions list. Wheeler &lt;a href="https://theathletic.com/5326639/2024/03/25/nhl-draft-ranking-top-64-prospects/?source=emp_shared_article"&gt;on Hage&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
  3173. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hage is a natural center who has it all. He’s got pro size and skating, he’s got dual-threat skill as a shooter and passer, he’s naturally talented as a handler, he can create for himself or elevate a line, he plays hard, he stays on pucks, he battles, and he reads the game at an advanced level with an intelligent, studious approach to the way he maneuvers around the ice. I like him in puck control/protection. He's got detail and work ethic. He's also, I'm told, taller by an inch or two than his NHL Central Scouting listing, with room to fill out his lean and athletic frame after lost time in the gym. And he has driven and produced offensively to stamp himself as one of the USHL's best players despite there being little around him and after missing most of last season.&lt;/p&gt;

  3297. &lt;p&gt;I watched the FAU-KSU game; I put my observations in a diary.&nbsp; I don't know basketball from basket-weaving but I liked FAU's decision-making, ball movement, and rotation.&nbsp; Things just &lt;em&gt;moved&lt;/em&gt; more, even as they knew KSU was a constant threat to pick off their passes, and it was KSU that leaned on heroball to generate points.&lt;/p&gt;
  3298.  
  3299. &lt;p&gt;I don't expect Michigan to accomplish much next season, because whoever we get is going to hit the books as much as the hardwood.&nbsp; Beilein's players were also notorious for being late bloomers, so hopefully folks haven't forgotten that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  3802.  
  3803. &lt;p&gt;Secondly, are we still linking to things Davis Mosely says as if he has ANY inside information?&nbsp; Pretty sure it has been revealed that his sources are very limited.&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  3804.  
  3805. &lt;p&gt;I wouldn't mind kicking the tires on Essegian since our roster is empty....but most importantly we need ball handlers and as many as we can find.&nbsp; Connor got benched at Wisconsin because he can't play defense at all.&nbsp; But snipers always have a role if they can hit open shots.&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  3848.  
  3849. &lt;p&gt;That said, this bothers me:&lt;/p&gt;
  3850.  
  3851. &lt;blockquote&gt;
  3852. &lt;p&gt;"We can't afford to let him play through it," Gard said of Essegian in mid-December. "The stakes are too high in terms of what this team wants to accomplish."&lt;/p&gt;
  3853. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  3854.  
  3855. &lt;p&gt;Your stakes were a priority; his long-term health wasn't.&nbsp; Duly noted, Wisconsin.&lt;/p&gt;
  3856.  
  3857. &lt;p&gt;Can he still play?&nbsp; Not even Beilein held onto Spike Albrecht when his hips gave out.&nbsp; I've no doubt Beilein had great respect for Spike, but it's not like staying on the roster got him any workman's comp.&nbsp; I wouldn't reach out to Essegian if the best thing for him is to retire.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Where was it suggested that Gard was asking Essegian to risk his long-term health? Dude had an early injury and wasn't as effective when he came back, so Gard reduced his minutes.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  3900.  
  3901. &lt;p&gt;Full context:&nbsp;&lt;a href="https://247sports.com/college/wisconsin/article/connor-essegian-continues-to-struggle-for-wisconsin-badgers-basketball-as-greg-gard-refuses-to-loosen-the-leash-223185536/"&gt;https://247sports.com/college/wisconsin/article/connor-essegian-continues-to-struggle-for-wisconsin-badgers-basketball-as-greg-gard-refuses-to-loosen-the-leash-223185536/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  3902.  
  3903. &lt;blockquote&gt;
  3904. &lt;p&gt;"A year ago he played on a team that's okay. We're a much better team," Gard stated. "We've got more depth. The scouting reports are out on him. You've gotta add layers to your game. You've got to grow your game. They've got all the freshman film where you banged 3's. They're not letting you get loose as much.&lt;/p&gt;
  3905.  
  3906. &lt;p&gt;"Continue to grow your game and accept the challenge. We know he can do it, but it's not one of those things we can afford to let him play through. The stakes are too high in terms of what this team wants to accomplish.&lt;/p&gt;
  3907.  
  3908. &lt;p&gt;"We're gonna need him. He's gonna get there. I told him, I'll keep coaching your defense. I'll call you when you're 45 years old in a men's league in the YMCA asking, 'How did you guard tonight?'&lt;/p&gt;
  3909.  
  3910. &lt;p&gt;"Until they shove the dirt on me, I'll keep coaching you and he knows I'm not gonna let up in terms of what I expect defensively."&lt;/p&gt;

  4617. &lt;p&gt;For starting center&nbsp;&lt;a href="https://theathletic.com/college-basketball/player/vladislav-goldin-4epHe8U8lWfSxK1k/"&gt;Vladislav Goldin&lt;/a&gt;, he looked at how Fenerbahce utilized Jan Veselý in the pinch post. A lot of the ball-screen action Goldin is involved in is stolen right from the ACB.&lt;/p&gt;

  4620. &lt;p&gt;Fenerbahçe is actually in Turkey, not Spain.&nbsp; (By chance, I happen to know someone who's a fan of them.)&nbsp; They may have played against some Spanish teams in the Euroleague (which is the basketball equivalent of the Champions' League), but they don't play in the ACB.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

There's a lot to like there, both in terms of analytics/track record and the effect he had on the team as an assistant at UF vs. how they performed after he left (poorly). But my favorite emerging truth about May is his likeability and apparent character as a human being. Sounds a lot like Coach Beilein to me and he made Michigan basketball such a joy to watch! Go Blue!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  5315. &lt;h4&gt;1. The Hiring of Dusty May&lt;/h4&gt;
  5316. &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Starts at 1:00&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  5317. &lt;p&gt;Brian let Seth out of his basement where he works on the UFRs so he’s off exploring the world somewhere (France). Michigan hired Dusty May as the 18th head men’s basketball coach, and the news was dropped in the middle of a hockey championship game. The rumor was that John Beilein played a big part in getting May. Good job, Warde Manuel! This hire was sniped from Louisville, who thought they could hire him this weekend. Whatever happened to Louisville? Dusty May really turned around Florida Atlantic basketball, which was basically a non-existent program before Dusty. He’s had a great track record everywhere he’s been. Dusty May is able to keep his players, even after a Final Four run.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  5319. &lt;p&gt;&lt;!--break--&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  5320. &lt;div id="read-more"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  5321. &lt;h4&gt;2. Basketball - Looking Forward to Next Year&lt;/h4&gt;
  5322. &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Starts at 29:58&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  5323. What makes Dusty May appealing as a coach? He seems to be really well liked. His teams shoot a lot of 3s and they shoot them pretty well. There are a lot of Beilein parallels.&nbsp; Who comes back? Who do you try and get? Johnell Davis is his star and has a year remaining. Alijah Martin and Vladislav Goldin are the other two starters who could come over as grad transfers. Does Dusty bring over his coaching staff and do you retain any of the coaching staff from an 8-24 team? Who do you &lt;em&gt;want&lt;/em&gt; to keep from last season’s roster? We’re completely happy with the hire but there isn’t a statistic that pops out consistently every year (except defensive assist rate). Expectations for next year are very low, fill a roster with guys you can build a program from. He’s going to have to hit the portal pretty hard.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  5324. &lt;h4&gt;3. Football Bits&lt;/h4&gt;
  5325. &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Starts at 1:07:05&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  5326. &lt;p&gt;Wink Martindale’s contract makes him the highest paid defensive coordinator in college football. When’s the last time you saw a long-term NFL coordinator jump back to college? Greg Scruggs has resigned and the guy to keep an eye on now is Terrance Jamison from Illinois. DJ Waller and Jyaire Hill are the two names that popped up during Sherrone Moore’s press conference as looking impressive so far. It might be Jack Tuttle as the spring front runner at QB until someone comes in and takes it. Don’t take too much stock into his Indiana career. Michigan has lost good receivers over the last three recruiting cycles, they need to get some more guys. Will Michigan pass more under Sherrone Moore? Probably not. Cam Goode was not on scholarship, he was on NIL all last season. The era of scholarship limits is over!&lt;/p&gt;
  5327. &lt;h4&gt;4. NCAA Hockey Tournament&nbsp;&lt;/h4&gt;
  5328. &lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Starts at 1:31:49&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  5329. Michigan hockey is a #3 seed and gets to play in an empty stadium in Maryland Heights, Missouri! They get North Dakota in the first game and are in an overall manageable draw. North Dakota's goalie seems like a guy. Michigan loses in OT to Michigan State in the Big Ten Championship game and Michigan State's game-tying goal might be the worst call we've ever seen. Michigan had a waved off goal that was also questionable. We've seen Michigan State many times, we're ok with drawing them as the #1 seed. When can we see the end of the tournament format of playing in empty neutral sites? The game is Friday at 8:30 on ESPNU.&lt;/p&gt;

OTOH Pitino adopted the 3-pointer quickly and when he was at Kentucky&nbsp; he squashed Louisville with it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  5744.  
  5745. &lt;p&gt;I get that players and coaches change their minds and all that but my general belief is that once you call it quits that's usually for a good reason and making comebacks and trying it again typically don't work out like you hoped.&nbsp; So yeah, I'd rather hire a guy who is younger and focused on getting better than a coach who's a couple years out of the game and may not be in the best headspace for the grind.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  5947.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'll reiterate what Brian was saying.&nbsp; Everyone's wondering how we lured May from Louisville, but if all I hear about May being a high-character guy is true, then him coming to Michigan may have had more to do with Louisville than anything Manuel or Beilein did.&lt;/p&gt;
  5948.  
  5949. &lt;p&gt;There's also been a lot of speculation in the threads about, why would a hot name like May want to go to Michigan instead of a "basketball school" like Louisville?&lt;/p&gt;
  5950.  
  5951. &lt;p&gt;Let's remember that Louisville had its Finals "victory" over Michigan vacated for throwing hookers at high schoolers.&nbsp; Now, it's fun to laugh at the NCAA for being hypocritical and toothless, but put that in perspective when you consider this is&lt;strong&gt; the &lt;em&gt;only&lt;/em&gt; vacated men's basketball championship&lt;/strong&gt; in NCAA history.&nbsp; Louisville was so astonishingly dirty that the NCAA actually had to do something about a high-profile, non-Michigan program.&nbsp; So they also had a postseason ban, reduced scholarships, and even got the Feds involved in a pay-for-play corruption scandal.&nbsp; Pitino ran a dirty, dirty program, and was fired for it but you know damn well Louisville would've kept him if he'd managed to keep it all under wraps.&nbsp; He's been gone for a while but that level of stink don't go away with a few years and a can of Febreze.&lt;/p&gt;
  5952.  
  5953. &lt;p&gt;That's what being a "basketball school" means, and if May is indeed a good person -- I don't know, but if he is -- then he just might &lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; want anything to do with a "basketball school".&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I don't know about the skank argument. Louisville loves hoops, as does Kentucky. That is an excellent job for a coach who can recruit and execute.&lt;/p&gt;
  5996.  
  5997. &lt;p&gt;Sandusky stinks up Penn State to this poster, but the culture rides on. I love PSU fans (and to be honest, any B1G fan is a breath of fresh air in my non-Midwest hometown).&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  5998.  
  5999. &lt;p&gt;Michigan gave Juwan a long, too-long rope. If things had gone differently (and they could have), that rope would still be going out. Winning or losing in college basketball isn't all about the coach—maybe less so now than ten or twenty years ago.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  6000.  
  6001. &lt;p&gt;Hopefully, we can get the pieces in place to allow May to shine. Dusty's decision probably weighed heavily on the culture argument, but don't forget Michigan gives away free hamburgers and has plenty of less tasty items in the closet.&lt;/p&gt;
  6002.  
  6003. &lt;p&gt;The real deal is a commitment to winning. Michigan has that, and Warde sold that to an open ear.&lt;/p&gt;

He grew up in the B1G country since he's from Illinois and graduated from Indiana University. He's a Midwest guy and Michigan fits that Midwest criteria whereas Louisville doesn't. Also, B1G money plays a factor because ACC could be dissolved within the next few years if FSU and Clemson decides to bolt. Michigan isn't a basketball school so he'll get less pressure but with good resources. Being a football school has its benefits for basketball coaches.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  6042.  
  6043. &lt;p&gt;On another note, I know a lot of people are worried about Indiana job being available for May, but I think there is a high buyout clause for Indiana. I'm less worried about Indiana than I am with NBA. I think NBA is a bigger threat than Indiana, but if he does bolt for the NBA, it tells me that May has done a good job with the program where it's more attractive so a good problem to have. It's too early to tell though.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  6580. &lt;p&gt;Now, it's fun to laugh at the NCAA for being hypocritical and toothless, but put that in perspective when you consider this is&lt;strong&gt;&nbsp;the&nbsp;&lt;em&gt;only&lt;/em&gt;&nbsp;vacated men's basketball championship&lt;/strong&gt;&nbsp;in NCAA history.&lt;/p&gt;
  6581. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  6582.  
  6583. &lt;p&gt;Unfortunately I feel like that's kind of an arbitrary distinction, since I can think of at least thee other teams just off the top of my head that also would have had their championships vacated had they not lost in the finals (sadly we have two of them--1992 and 1993--along with Memphis in ~2008?)...&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Maybe May’s roster and system will actually integrate defensive concepts to help the team?&lt;/p&gt;
  6675.  
  6676. &lt;p&gt;I think the receiver thing is worrisome and I fear the lack of a vertical passing game outside of the TE group is finally catching up with the team. I don’t think there’s a QB on the roster who is close to JJ’s passing abilities and even though the offensive schemes will likely stay the same, the running game will likely shoulder the load to further the lack of passing.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  6800.  
  6801. &lt;p&gt;It sucks to lose Sanderson but contemporaneous reporting of the incident made it sound like he called out the team and the culture and even if that's true, that's not something a member of the staff does in front of the team without the blessing of the HC.&nbsp; But there are other S&amp;C guys out there and I suspect May will bring in a good guy at UM.&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  6885.  
  6886. &lt;p&gt;Hiring &lt;em&gt;sucks&lt;/em&gt;.&nbsp; It's really time-intensive (if you do it right) because you spend hours on each candidate, and you want to interview as many as possible, even though for every opening only one person's getting the job.&lt;/p&gt;
  6887.  
  6888. &lt;p&gt;Sure, you can fast-track it by dipping into a good-ol'-boys club but that's like the complete opposite of a meritocracy so I dearly hope (and it doesn't sound like it anyway) that May won't resort to that.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  6927. &lt;p&gt;I think Adam Howard, the GA from Indiana University, is rumored to follow May. He has a ton of connections with the Indiana high school scene and '25 class looks to be loaded with Indiana recruits.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  7050. &lt;p&gt;I could see a few support staff guys staying, but really, why would you want to keep anyone of consequence from a program that was 14 games under .500 over the past two seasons? Time for clean house.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  7093.  
  7094. &lt;p&gt;1. Is May’s current assistant staff better than who we have now? I don’t know enough about FAU to make a judgement call.&lt;/p&gt;
  7095.  
  7096. &lt;p&gt;2. Although Martelli was part of the recent shitshow, he was not the director or producer of it. If May’s future roster and leadership is a better fit for what Martelli did contribute to, it’s at least worth exploring bring him back.&lt;/p&gt;
  7097.  
  7098. &lt;p&gt;3. He’s highly regarded around college basketball circles and coached the team when they still had an once of effort and normalcy.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  7494. &lt;p&gt;Michigan was dead silent until May was announced during a hockey game I was very mad about. This was a surprise to the basketball world, which widely expected May to get hired by Louisville—historically a top-20 job. John Beilein reportedly met with May, along with Warde Manuel, and was able to sell him on Michigan relative to a very good program.&lt;/p&gt;
  7495. &lt;p&gt;This space has had a lot of Warde Manuel complaints over the last few years but I have to give it up here: they picked up the leading candidate of the cycle almost immediately after he was available and snaked the guy out from under Louisville. A+.&lt;/p&gt;
  7496. &lt;p&gt;Now, about that candidate:&lt;/p&gt;
  7497. &lt;h2&gt;Background&lt;/h2&gt;
  7498. &lt;p&gt;Well, if you were looking for the exact opposite of a guy who had a 17-year NBA career, this is it: May's college career is 404 File Not Found. He was a student manager under Bobby Knight at Indiana, then went into various analyst roles his first few years after college before landing an assistant gig at Eastern Michigan. He quickly climbed the ladder, going from EMU to Murray State to UAB to Louisiana Tech. There he was retained by Mike White after he took over for Kerry Rupp and quickly became his right hand; he followed White to Florida.&lt;/p&gt;
  7499. &lt;p&gt;May jumped to FAU after three years, and it's encouraging that his departure seemed to have a deleterious effect on White's tenure. After an NIT year one, Florida went to the Elite Eight in year two, finishing second in the SEC at 14-4. In year three they were 11-7 in the league and a six seed. Those teams ranked 5th and 22nd in Kenpom, respectively.&lt;/p&gt;
  7500. &lt;p&gt;White's teams slowly deteriorated after May left. White never had a top 25 team again; after May left they went 26, 32, 41, and 59 before White was shown the door.&lt;/p&gt;
  7501. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;[After THE JUMP: resume, recruiting, analytics, the near future]&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  7502. &lt;!--break--&gt;&lt;div id="read-more"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  7503. &lt;h2&gt;Resume&lt;/h2&gt;
  7504. &lt;p&gt;May's tenure at FAU is the final six dots here.&lt;/p&gt;
  7505. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/image_4774.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="image" border="0" height="611" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/image_thumb_4653.png" style="margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; float: none; display: block; background-image: none;" title="image" width="804" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  7506. &lt;p&gt;May's at Michigan largely because he took a program that had a total of two top 200 Kenpom finishes since 1997 and put up back-to-back top 50 years, with a Final Four run in 2023. It is difficult to overstate how blah Florida Atlantic has been for decades. Prior to May's arrival they had one bid in their D-1 history, which dates back to 1993. That was a 15 seed in 2002.&lt;/p&gt;
  7507. &lt;p&gt;May took over for former Piston Michael Curry, who had back-to-back 6-12 conference records, and immediately posted the best Florida Atlantic team ever, per Kenpom. After idling around .500 the next two years he posted a 19-15, 11-7 CUSA season that was #129 to Kenpom. May explained this lull on a &lt;em&gt;Rich Eisen Show&lt;/em&gt; appearance embedded below: he inherited three players and imported a bunch of grad transfers in year one, so he had to kind of start over in year two.&lt;/p&gt;
  7508. &lt;p&gt;Then, the blowup. FAU posted a 35-4 season, beating Florida in the nonconference and easily winning a very good edition of CUSA with two other top-50 teams (UAB and North Texas). They won the CUSA tournament with three straight blowouts, edged by Kenpom #20 Memphis in the first round of the tournament, got lucky to draw Fairleigh Dickinson after the second 16-vs-1 upset ever, and then beat #6 Tennessee and #21 Kansas State to reach the Final Four, where they lost to #14 San Diego State by one point.&lt;/p&gt;
  7509. &lt;p&gt;Florida Atlantic ran it back this year and while they dropped off slightly, they beat Butler, A&amp;M, Virginia Tech and Arizona in the nonconference schedule while moving up to the American. They got an eight seed in the tourney and lost to Northwestern in OT. May was clearly going to be somewhere else after this season, but it's worth noting that he was willing to come back this year, confident that FAU was not a flash in the pan. This was not an out-of-left field run by a team that got an easy draw; FAU beat three top-25 teams to reach the Final Four and was a buzzer-beater away from playing for the national title.&lt;/p&gt;
  7510. &lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, the "took mid-major to Final Four" track record is pretty dang good:&lt;/p&gt;
  7511. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;&lt;p dir="ltr" lang="en"&gt;What a terrible take. They were one shot away from the title game.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

  7528. &lt;script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jury's still out on Moser. Everyone else on that list is a very good basketball coach. Crean is probably the worst name on that list and he has two Big Ten titles at perennial also-ran Indiana.&lt;/p&gt;
  7529. &lt;h2&gt;Roster Construction&lt;/h2&gt;
  7530. &lt;p&gt;Perhaps the most impressive part of May's run at Florida Atlantic is how much of his roster was developed at FAU. This year's Owls are is #1 in Kenpom's "&lt;a href="https://kenpom.com/blog/measuring-continuity/"&gt;minutes continuity&lt;/a&gt;" stat, which measures how similar your playing rotation is to last year's. That might be expected since FAU went to the Final Four and everyone decided to run it back, but the team that went to the Final Four was 26th. May developed this team in Boca Raton.&lt;/p&gt;
  7531. &lt;p&gt;Just three players in his rotation this year were transfers, and May can take a large part of the credit for two of them. Center &lt;strong&gt;Vladislav Goldin&lt;/strong&gt; left Texas Tech after a freshman year where he barely played; over the last three years he's evolved from a middling rotation guy (18 MPG, 109 ORTG, 21% usage) to a legit star (24 MPG, 126 ORTG, 26% usage). &lt;strong&gt;Brian Greenlee&lt;/strong&gt; also barely played in his one year at Minnesota; he's not a great offensive player but has been a four-year starter for a steadily improving team.&lt;/p&gt;
  7532. &lt;p&gt;Guard &lt;strong&gt;Jalen Gaffney&lt;/strong&gt; is the only player May had during this run who was a plug and play transfer. He came over after three years at UConn where he was a rotation guy on a couple of top-25 UConn teams. And May did not exactly rely on Gaffney: unusually for a down-transfer, his usage plummeted. He's been at 13% in his two years at FAU.&lt;/p&gt;
  7533. &lt;p&gt;The rest of this roster came to FAU out of high school.&lt;/p&gt;
  7534. &lt;h2&gt;Recruiting&lt;/h2&gt;
  7535. &lt;p&gt;Ask again later. At FAU's level recruiting rankings more or less don't exist. &lt;strong&gt;Johnell Davis&lt;/strong&gt;, FAU's star, was not ranked by 247. Only a couple high school recruits on the roster actually drew a 247 ranking. White's first two classes at Florida consisted of a four-man class ranking between 116 and 203 on 247 that ranked #21 nationally and a three-man class with #20 Andrew Nembhard, #82 Keyontae Johnson, and #107 Noah Locke that was 19th. (Variable class sizes make overall recruiting class rankings nearly meaningless in basketball.) Nembhard was at Montverde and Johnson at Oak Hill, so May has some experience going after big recruits at basketball factory high schools. Locke, meanwhile, is a guy Florida yoinked away from one John Beilein—Locke visited Flordia two weeks after a Michigan visit and committed a few days later.&lt;/p&gt;
  7536. &lt;p&gt;One signal we do have is May's ability to grab Gaffney out of the portal. A guy who'd been a rotation piece for a top-25 team was likely in high demand at the mid-major level, and May was able to grab him coming off a 19-15 season that was an improvement for FAU but not exactly indicative of a pending Final Four run.&lt;/p&gt;
  7537. &lt;p&gt;Also, this can't hurt:&lt;/p&gt;
  7538. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;&lt;p dir="ltr" lang="en"&gt;Recruiting note: Dusty May, Eastern Greene HS graduate and former IU manager, will be active recruiting the state of Indiana.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

  7540. May had Gary native Nelly Davis on his 2023 Florida Atlantic Final Four team, is well-connected and well-respected in Indiana. &lt;a href="https://t.co/sxeRlgtwSS"&gt;https://t.co/sxeRlgtwSS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  7553. &lt;script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;p&gt;I haven't seen anyone say anything remotely negative about him personally; instead, the opposite:&lt;/p&gt;
  7554. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;&lt;p dir="ltr" lang="en"&gt;On a personal note, Dusty May was one of the first coaches — he might’ve been the first — that made me feel welcomed in media.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

  7568. &lt;script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;p&gt;I do not know who Rod Wave is. I also do not know who "Lil Durk"—Hubert Davis's pick—is.&lt;/p&gt;

This is fau… &lt;a href="https://t.co/KvSjRDq1VJ"&gt;pic.twitter.com/KvSjRDq1VJ&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  7572. &lt;script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'd say the vibes are good.&lt;/p&gt;
  7573. &lt;h2&gt;What To Expect&lt;/h2&gt;
  7574. &lt;p&gt;May's teams have some fingerprints you can glean from the statistics:&lt;/p&gt;
  7575. &lt;ul&gt;
  7576. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lots of made threes&lt;/strong&gt;. Not quite Beilein level but this is the first year of May's six at FAU that the Owls have not been in the top 100 in three-pointers attempted. They were top 100 in 3P% three of the last four years, backsliding to 121 this year.&lt;/li&gt;
  7577. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lots of made twos&lt;/strong&gt;. Top 50 the last three years.&lt;/li&gt;
  7578. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lots of good shots&lt;/strong&gt;. The last two years FAU was 98th percentile in the proportion of catch and shoot opportunities that Synergy filed as "unguarded." The previous two: 79th and 95th. Even the pre-breakout FAU teams took a ton of open shots.&lt;/li&gt;
  7579. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Relatively few long twos&lt;/strong&gt;. Three of the last four years they've been around 50th in long twos attempted—by that I mean 50th fewest long twos. The outlier was the Final Four year, when they were 9th. May's teams aren't quite as rim-or-three oriented as, say, Nate Oats, but they're not far off. This year they were 15th percentile taking jumpers out to 17 feet and 8th percentile taking long jumpers; last year they were 6th and 7th.&lt;/li&gt;
  7580. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Relatively plentiful long twos for opponents&lt;/strong&gt;. Same deal: around 50th three of the last four years and popping up to 21st for the Final Four run.&lt;/li&gt;
  7581. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Limited easy shots for opponents&lt;/strong&gt;. This year FAU was 2nd percentile(!!!) in catch and shoot attempts allowed, 98th percentile at forcing jumpers off the bounce, and 99th(!) percentile at forcing runners. Those numbers are virtually identical to last year. They were 20th and 12th percentile in shots at the rim.&nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
  7582. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Defensive assist avoidance&lt;/strong&gt;. IE, how many of the opponents' baskets are assisted. May's teams were top 5 nationally the last two years and have been inside the top 100 every year except his first.&lt;/li&gt;
  7583. &lt;/ul&gt;
  7584. &lt;p&gt;This is &lt;em&gt;great&lt;/em&gt;. May's teams are forcing opponents into the toughest shots in basketball and getting tons of open looks themselves. That is traceable back to coaching, especially since these trends started before FAU blew up into a top 50 program.&lt;/p&gt;
  7585. &lt;h2&gt;The Immediate Future&lt;/h2&gt;
  7586. &lt;p&gt;Michigan's current roster is Terrance Williams, Nimari Burnett, Will Tschetter, and Jace Howard. Durral Brooks and Christian Anderson remain committed. (247's Davis Moseley said that he &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/DavisMoseley/status/1771724229815288207?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1771724229815288207%7Ctwgr%5E45d5f1f35e38264c5f7f97b4b8724ab851934b3e%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fbluebyninety.com%2Fjohn-beilein-helped-lure-dusty-may-to-michigan-basketball-plus-early-roster-intel%2F"&gt;expects Brooks to stick&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/DavisMoseley/status/1771742035105443987?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1771742035105443987%7Ctwgr%5E45d5f1f35e38264c5f7f97b4b8724ab851934b3e%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fbluebyninety.com%2Fjohn-beilein-helped-lure-dusty-may-to-michigan-basketball-plus-early-roster-intel%2F"&gt;Burnett to stay&lt;/a&gt;, FWIW.) This is a considerably insufficient number of basketball players. Michigan will look to supplement in various ways:&lt;/p&gt;
  7587. &lt;ul&gt;
  7588. &lt;li&gt;FAU's top three players&lt;strong&gt;—Davis&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Goldin&lt;/strong&gt;, and &lt;strong&gt;Alijah Martin—&lt;/strong&gt;all have a COVID year left and could come over as grad transfers. Since they were willing to run it back with May after the final four run when any and all could have up-transferred for NIL money, I'd imagine there's a good chance all three decide to take a run at the Big Ten.&lt;/li&gt;
  7589. &lt;li&gt;May is likely to be on the phone with &lt;strong&gt;Tarris Reed&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;George Washington&lt;/strong&gt; about returning. Dug McDaniel, too, but since a lot of people expected him to leave even if Howard was retained that seems like a long shot.&lt;/li&gt;
  7590. &lt;li&gt;FAU has three guards committed—novel idea to have more than one guard on a roster—and one or more could decide to follow May. &lt;strong&gt;Elijah Elliott&lt;/strong&gt; is the highest-rated at #185, so all are likely to be developmental prospects.&lt;/li&gt;
  7591. &lt;li&gt;May could try to pick off players committed to other schools who have recently undergone a coaching change, a la Caris Levert. The lack of major jobs open this year—and OSU deciding to go with an assistant—means the top-100-ish pickings will be slim. &lt;strong&gt;Liam McNeeley&lt;/strong&gt; decommitted from Indiana and says he'll go through a whole recruiting process, there's also, well, &lt;strong&gt;Khani Rooths.&lt;/strong&gt; Those are both unlikely, but LeVert was committed to Ohio. There are gems down in the hinterland of the rankings and May seems adept at finding them.&lt;/li&gt;
  7592. &lt;li&gt;And then there's &lt;strong&gt;The Portal Writ Large&lt;/strong&gt;. May has not emphasized the portal but hasn't been a teetotaler about it, and given the distinct Year Zero vibe of the current roster he'll likely have to go find some guys. His experience walking into three guys his first year at FAU will be helpful here.&lt;/li&gt;
  7593. &lt;/ul&gt;
  7594. &lt;p&gt;The other open question is who May will tap as his assistants. He's likely to bring in some or all of his FAU guys, but schools at FAU's level often go with an internal promotion after they lose a successful coach. If he has an opening May could take a shot at an assistant who's been at the high major level a long time for recruiting purposes, and if Beilein's involved with the program he will probably suggest that May look at Saddi Washington, Lavall Jordan, and Luke Yaklich. That, too, is a rumor that's out there: Beilein may return in an administrative capacity.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  7595. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Etc.:&lt;/strong&gt; Deal is &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/_ZachShaw/status/1771915923756122214"&gt;five years&lt;/a&gt;, 3.75 million per.&lt;/p&gt;

  8007.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;The questions surrounding May have always been centered around sustainability. His first four years were pretty “meh.” Excellent by FAU standards but not exactly something that would earn you consideration at a top job. Now there are &lt;em&gt;reasons&lt;/em&gt; the success was middling in those four seasons, but the results are what they are.&nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
  8008. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  8009.  
  8010. &lt;p&gt;The last two years have obviously been the type of years that WILL get you that consideration. But with just two of those seasons there are valid questions surrounding whether that success is sustainable. Especially with this past season bringing everyone back from the Final Four team.&nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
  8011. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  8012.  
  8013. &lt;p&gt;Compared with other candidates, Niko Medved took over Furman and went from 9 wins to 23 by year 4. At Colorado State he went 12-20 in year 1 and has won 20 games twice and 25 games twice in the 5 seasons since, making the NCAA tournament twice. DeVries took over a .500 Drake team (ironically from Medved, who was there one season) and aside from a 20 win season in Year 2, has won 24+ in each of his other 5 seasons with three NCAA tournament appearances.&lt;br&gt;
  8014. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  8015.  
  8016. &lt;p&gt;So there were some other candidates with longer track records of success that I think many fans found attractive in comparison to May. I think the signs were there for May that he was building a team that could consistently compete for NCAA appearances, but it’s also fair for the question to be raised after two years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  8059.  
  8060. &lt;p&gt;However, the fact that Beilein was involved helps overcome these concerns. I doubt John is going to campaign on Michigan's behalf for someone he doesn't feel is worthy.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Calipari hasn’t done anything the last 5 or 6 years despite having elite talent at Kentucky… talent that won’t be available to him at Michigan.&nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
  8103. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  8104.  
  8105. &lt;p&gt;As an in-game coach, it really looks like the game has passed Calipari by. Tremendous career, but he’s won just a single NCAA Tournament game in the last 5 years with the crazy talent Kentucky brings in. Id have a really hard time seeing him translate to Michigan.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  8229. &lt;p&gt;And a shout-out to Howard. Though the evidence suggests he's a better pro coach than college coach, he did face a perfect storm of bad breaks this year. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  8230.  
  8231. &lt;p&gt;Also, I wish I'd had the nerve to express my opinion that Manuel isn't terrible. That's probably still the prevailing stereotype but I don't know that we can tell.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  8462. &lt;p&gt;And a shout-out to Howard. Though the evidence suggests he's a better pro coach than college coach, he did face a perfect storm of bad breaks this year. &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  8463. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  8464.  
  8465. &lt;p&gt;In a world where Howard didn't have Michigan's admissions hurdles, I think he'd be a good college coach. However, Michigan is clearly not a school currently where Howard can be the type of coach he is and find success. He never quite figured out the formula to win and build a team at a school like Michigan. Less Caleb Houstans, Frankie Collins, and Moussa Diabates. More Hunter Dickinsons, Kobe Bufkins, and Will Tschetters&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  8786. &lt;p&gt;I really don't understand the hate, by some, of Warde Manuel. While no one makes every call perfect, I think he's done a fine job on the whole.&lt;/p&gt;
  8787. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  8788.  
  8789. &lt;p&gt;While I like this hire, apparently Warde has had Dusty May's name in his pocket for over a year after the rumblings of Juwan taking an NBA job and he didn't do&nbsp;&lt;em&gt;that&lt;/em&gt;&nbsp;much research outside of him. Warde has always seemed to have an issue of being reactive and not putting the work in. Thankfully it worked and it had the support of others in his circle, but I'm really not sure where this coaching search would've went if Louisville managed to grab him instead or if Beilein hadn't tag teamed this with him&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

"if Beilein hadn't tag teamed this with him" ok, but that happened because Warde involved JB. That wasn't pure coincidence. Do you think that JB was just wandering around the right conference room and happened to hear Warde trying to hire May?&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  8827.  
  8828. &lt;p&gt;"If Louisville managed to grab him" again, that's not a random circumstance. Warde took actions that influenced (but didn't decide) that outcome.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  8994.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;I think the list is small enough that you can look at them point by point.&nbsp; I think you really mean Harbaugh, Howard, Beilein, Hutchins, Bakich, and Pearson.&lt;/p&gt;
  8995.  
  8996. &lt;p&gt;3 I view as not Warde's fault at all.&lt;/p&gt;
  8997.  
  8998. &lt;p&gt;Harbaugh: left for the NFL.&nbsp; College coaches don't turn down NFL HC opportunities, especially after they've gone 15-0 and won national championships at their alma mater.&nbsp; I don't believe any amount of salary, or any "standing up to the NCAA" by Warde would have been more than a nice gesture - Harbaugh wants to shoot for a Super Bowl, and that's that.&lt;/p&gt;
  8999.  
  9000. &lt;p&gt;Beilein: left for the NBA.&nbsp; We live in a CBB world where Jay Wright retired and got out of coaching &lt;em&gt;entirely &lt;/em&gt;rather than deal with NIL/transfers/one-and-dones/etc.&nbsp; JB wasn't turning down an NBA HC opportunity to begin with, and he had additional reason to not like where CBB was going.&lt;/p&gt;
  9001.  
  9002. &lt;p&gt;Hutchins: retired at age 64.&nbsp; MAYBE you can throw the bag at her to get her to stay, but that would only delay the inevitable.&nbsp; She's 66 now and was going to retire sooner or later, and it's not like she got poached by anything other than "not having to work anymore."&nbsp;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  9003.  
  9004. &lt;p&gt;2 I view as partially Warde's fault.&lt;/p&gt;
  9005.  
  9006. &lt;p&gt;Howard: fired by Warde, but also hired by Warde.&nbsp; Obviously Warde made a hire that didn't work out, but given the timing of Beilein's departure, there wasn't an option as good as Dusty May available.&nbsp; Partial blame on Warde for making a bad hire, but also partial credit to him for both firing Juawn promptly at the end of the season, and getting the consensus best-available candidate to replace him.&lt;/p&gt;
  9007.  
  9008. &lt;p&gt;Bakich: left for Clemson.&nbsp; I'm of the opinion that Michigan is at a disadvantage to southern schools for baseball simply due to geography.&nbsp; That said, there was opportunity for Warde to throw the bag at Bakich and at least TRY to make Michigan more of a baseball school.&nbsp; Would it have worked?&nbsp; Would it have been a good investment?&nbsp; It is impossible to know.&nbsp; Personally I don't mind dis-investing in baseball compared to the Big 3 of Football, Basketball, and Hockey, but I undestand that's not a universal opinion.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  9009.  
  9010. &lt;p&gt;1 I view as entirely Warde's fault.&lt;/p&gt;
  9011.  
  9012. &lt;p&gt;Pearson: absolute clusterfuck.&nbsp; Should have either been fired much faster, or should have been retained much faster.&nbsp; Warde's nearly year-long indecision was extremely risky to the hockey program, and he's frankly just lucky that Narauto has worked out so well, and that hockey more or less survived an incredible management blunder (though there has been visible damage, mainly in the form of Augustine).&nbsp; &nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  9055.  
  9056. &lt;p&gt;The Pearson farrago, however, is all on him. &nbsp;Whether he was trying to wait it out, or was vigorously defending Pearson behind the scenes but failing, the situation left Michigan hockey twisting in the wind, and kept the story in the news if on the back burner.&lt;/p&gt;

It's a real stretch to call the 90s and early 2000s C-USA teams (Marquette, Cincy, etc.), 2021 Houston, or 2023 San Diego State "mid-majors." The C-USA Final Four teams cited there played in the same conference as the likes of Louisville and Memphis.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  9221.  
  9222. &lt;p&gt;But May's FAU team definitely falls under the category. C-USA was much, much weaker by then.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  9726. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What just happened (TL;DR):&lt;/strong&gt; Michigan and Michigan State played a back and forth game all evening, exchanging leads throughout. Michigan held leads of 1-0 and 3-2; MSU had leads of 2-1 and 4-3. While neither goalie was outstanding, Trey Augustine was better than Jacob Barczewski, and that proved to be the difference. There were a couple of controversial goal calls (or wave offs), making it a peak Big Ten game in the final Big Ten game of the season. Both teams were very good as it took almost 75 minutes to decide the final. I don’t hate either teams chances next weekend in NCAA Regionals.&lt;/p&gt;

  9792. &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Forward Notes.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  9793. &lt;p&gt;-Michigan started the game with a bang, scoring a goal bright and early. They followed that up with another goal that was waved off goal goalie interference (a debatable decision). The Wolverines continued the onslaught peppering Spartan goalie Trey Augustine when not killing a penalty. Only getting that one goal to count early seemed to change the flow of the game, as MSU played better as the game moved along…with Michigan seemingly feeling a bit fortunate to get to overtime. Overtime was rather even with one goalie making one more save that the other. In the end, the game was about as close as it could be.&lt;/p&gt;
  9794. &lt;p&gt;-Frank Nazar got his line on the scoresheet a couple of times at Munn on Saturday night. He finished off a very nice backhanded pass from Josh Eernisse from the boards. Nazar raced to the front of the net and elevated the centering pass over Trey Augustine to open the scoring. In the third, down a goal, Dylan Duke fired a shot from the point that Nazar was able to redirect into the net with his back skate. It was a bit of a fortunate bounce, but Frank had to get his foot in the right place originally.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  9795. &lt;p&gt;-The top line scored to make it 2-0, right after the first Nazar goal. Rutger McGroarty found and open Gavin Brindley in the slot who beat Trey Augustine. The goal was waved off due to Garrett Schifsky sending a defenseman into Augustine before the shot. It was reviewed and hotly debated if it was a shove or a position battle. Unfortunately for Michigan, it was ruled a shove and goaltender interference.&lt;/p&gt;
  9796. &lt;p&gt;-More on this goal in the next section, but Philippe Lapointe made a very nice pass across the ice to Marshall Warren to set up his goal. Lapointe chipping in backs up the fourth line’s great offensive play last weekend in Minneapolis. He also had a very nice backhanded assist to Luca Fantilli on a goal that was waved off for offsides. Good to see Lapointe making a difference in the offensive zone down the stretch.&lt;/p&gt;
  9797. &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Defense Notes.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  9798. &lt;p&gt;-Overall, I didn’t think the defense was bad at all. They faded a little bit in the third period and then in overtime, as the game kept going, forcing Barczewski to bail them out more than he had to in the first couple of periods. However, other than the first goal, it was hard to fault them for any of the goals. It would have been nice if someone had stepped out into Matt Basgall’s buzzer-beating rocket…but that seemed like a frustrated mental error after the absurdity of the third goal being reviewed and given. That’s slightly understandable.&lt;/p&gt;
  9799. &lt;p&gt;-The one bad DZTO did come from Luca Fantilli. That was the first real scoring chance that MSU got all evening…over ten minutes into the game. He may have played after that, but I did not see him or notice him. (When college hockey has a naturalstattrick website that I can check TOI and shift times, let me know!) Luca has had an up and down season. He’s flashed some puck moving potential, but has also had his own gaffes in the defensive zone. He still seems a summer away from strong, consistent contributions.&lt;/p&gt;
  9800. &lt;p&gt;-Marshall Warren had a Cale Makar-esque finish on the third Michigan goal. He reached out to catch the Lapointe pass. Then, he went forehand, backhand and ROOFED the shot over Augustine! Even Seamus Casey must have been like “Wha??” Warren has finally turned into the defenseman that Michigan had hoped he would be all season. He’s been very solid in his zone, on the puck, and is starting to finish some plays. That bodes really well going into Regionals.&lt;/p&gt;

  9850. &lt;/td&gt;
  9851. &lt;/tr&gt;
  9852. &lt;/tbody&gt;
  9853. &lt;/table&gt;
  9854. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Power Play.&lt;/strong&gt; After a couple of lackluster power plays, Michigan’s third power play hit the jackpot. Seamus Casey made a nice move at the blue line, carried down the side of the House, backhanded a slick pass to Rutger McGroarty’s tape. Rutger fired a shot into Trey Augustine, who leaked the puck as he was moving across the crease. Dylan Duke was where he normally is for the rebound: at the top of the crease. The thing about power plays is that you don’t need to be great on every one. If you are awesome on a couple and finish one, that’s all that matters. The Wolverines did that on Saturday night.&lt;/p&gt;
  9855. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Penalty Kill.&lt;/strong&gt; The Wolverines took the first two penalties of the game. They then proceeded to rather easily kill of both Spartan power plays. While MSU did garner some zone time, they didn’t get a shot on net until the second opportunity…and neither were overly dangerous. Michigan’s penalty kill resurrection has been a sight to behold. It’s gone from “AHH!!!” to “eh” in a matter on months. Major point for the coaching staff.&lt;/p&gt;

  9931. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Notes.&lt;/strong&gt; Jake Barczewski started in net on Saturday night. He had a very nice stretch of play later on in the game, but did not have his best performance overall. While there was very little he could do on the first goal, he gave up a big rebound on the second goal that allowed Daniel Russell to find Isaac Howard for an open net goal. It may have been a tricky shot, but the rebound was very costly. The third goal should not have counted, but he did loose the puck in himself (to some degree) that did allow Jeremy Davidson to jam it in, post-whistle or not. The buzzer beater goal was also not great. It was a rocket, but it looked like he was just beaten. Then, the final goal he got the glove up and just missed it. To his credit though, Barczewski did play really, really well in the third period when Michigan wasn’t generating much. He made a number of unbelievable saves that kept the game going. He also made 2-3 Hero saves on cross-crease plays and on a breakaway. In the end, Michigan needed just bit better of a goalie performance to hoist a trophy.&lt;/p&gt;

  10093. &lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Notes. &lt;/strong&gt;Michigan State got an early breakaway after a botched end of power play by Jacob Truscott. Barczewski made a great save to deny the Spartans best rush chance. MSU also generated two more 3v2s in the third period, but neither came to much of a chance. Overall, Michigan was pretty good positionally all even to defense MSU’s rush chances.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  10094. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  10095. The Wolverines did create a few chances in transition as well. After their first 3v1 was mismanaged, Josh Eernisse got a breakaway in the second period, but could not be Augustine. That was the best look Michigan got, as their final two OMRs were pretty nullified by the defenders protecting the House very well.&lt;/p&gt;
  10096. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;FINAL THOUGHTS&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  10097. &lt;p&gt;Michigan definitely played well enough to win on Saturday night. If the Brindley goal counts, they probably do win. If the third State goal doesn’t count, they probably win. If the fourth State goal is a second later, they could easily win. However, none of those things happened, and they could not over come them. They needed better in net. They certainly will if they’re to win any games next weekend. Right now, it looks like they’ll be the #3 seed playing the North Dakota Fighting &lt;strike&gt;Sioux&lt;/strike&gt;. Will they be in St Louis, MO or Springfield, MA? Probably St Louis, but it could be either. Their #1 seed looks like it will be either the Boston University Terriers or the same MSU Spartans. Tune in Sunday evening at 6:30pm on ESPNU/ESPN+ to find out for sure.&lt;/p&gt;

I've NEVER seen that be called a goal, when the original call on the ice was no goal.&lt;/p&gt;
  10170.  
  10171. &lt;p&gt;1. The puck was under Barzo for several seconds. This should have been blown dead. Refs sometimes let play continue, so this one is the only part of the play that can be debated.&lt;/p&gt;
  10172.  
  10173. &lt;p&gt;2. The whistle was blown before the puck crossed the line. The whistle being blown is not the definitive end, the rule specifically states the play is dead '&lt;em&gt;when the ref intends to blow the whistle&lt;/em&gt;.' Even so, on replay, it's clear the whistle blows the play dead prior to the puck crossing the line- or at worst, you can't see where the puck is.&lt;/p&gt;
  10174.  
  10175. &lt;p&gt;3. You cannot push a goalie's pad that is covering the puck into the goal resulting in a goal.&lt;/p&gt;
  10176.  
  10177. &lt;p&gt;Bad calls happen, it's sports. But this one is the biggest home cooking bullshit in a long time. It's a shame because that was a really exciting hockey game between two really good teams. Why in 2024, are reviews not centralized to the B1G office? It would still probably suck, but at least there would be one person consistently calling the shots, compared to different officials trying to make sense of a review &lt;em&gt;in-arena,&lt;/em&gt; on a tiny screen.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

It's so bad that I can't even go Spartan Bob about it. The Big Ten officials are just that bad and it happens week in and week out&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

But then they gave the goal to the guy who crashed the net and poked it in after the whistle, so, no.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  10256.  
  10257. &lt;p&gt;Now the only explanation I can come up with is that they reviewed it solely for "was the puck in the net" and didn't consider "Hey I blew the whistle. Did I blow the whistle before the puck went in?" and Nar would have needed to challenge that. Which would be stupid, but knowing this conference I wouldn't put it past em.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  10258.  
  10259. &lt;p&gt;It's also sweet that that was an automatic review, but ours would have required a challenge a minute into the game, which would have meant that we couldn't challenge any of the other Big Ten BS the rest of the game without risking a penalty.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  10495.  
  10496. &lt;p&gt;UM needs better goaltending in general but tonight he gave at least as good a performance as Augustine and if the refs called the game correctly UM wins going away.&lt;/p&gt;
  10497.  
  10498. &lt;p&gt;I said this in the live thread but I can't wait for UM to play games not officiated by the shitty refs in this league.&nbsp; I'm sure they suck elsewhere but this has been just a banner year of stupidity for this conference and these past couple weekends we've seen UM be on the wrong end of some terrible calls that could have/did cost them games.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

He has an insanely high ceiling, he's going to be a stud for them next year, and he definitely won some games for them this year, but he has like a 3.53 goals against vs tournament teams this year. I think Barzo is like 3.37.&lt;/p&gt;
  10577.  
  10578. &lt;p&gt;He got most outstanding player in the BTT for beating a mid OSU team and getting kind of shelled by us? It's a little weird.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  10773.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Eh. Every fan base in the world complains about calls and insists that the referees conspire against them when their team loses. (See also: Ohio State on the Roman Wilson TD this year). It's absurd to believe that a team that's won back-to-back Big Ten Championships and lost the third in OT on the road is playing against a stacked deck.&lt;/p&gt;
  10774.  
  10775. &lt;p&gt;The breaks definitely went against Michigan in this game (though I have no idea why Naurato didn't challenge the goalie interference call), but we also had real chances to win it. Seemed to me that MSU had more energy and was playing with a lot more fire down the stretch (as the shots-on-goal reflect) — that's a hell of a team.&lt;/p&gt;
  10776.  
  10777. &lt;p&gt;Onwards. Let's meet them again in the Frozen Four and crush them. :-)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  10965.  
  10966. &lt;p&gt;Transition year for Michigan hockey and they played great down the stretch. 10 spot in Pairwise feels about right for the team. Less injuries and some puck luck and they could content for Big Ten regular season title and 1 seed.&lt;/p&gt;
  10967.  
  10968. &lt;p&gt;Hope they find a way to get to the Frozen Four and BU, BC, Denver, and Michigan State do not. That's a lot of luck needed but Michigan almost certainly will need to beat one of the aforementioned to make it to Minneapolis.&lt;/p&gt;

  11235.            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;During the middle of the Michigan Hockey game, news broke that Michigan Men's Basketball has a new head coach. That would be Florida Atlantic University coach&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Dusty May&lt;/strong&gt;:&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  11236. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;&lt;p dir="ltr" lang="en"&gt;ESPN Sources: Florida Atlantic’s Dusty May has agreed on a deal to become the next coach at the University of Michigan. Andy Miller — May’s representative with Klutch Sports — is completing details with school officials on a long-term contract tonight. &lt;a href="https://t.co/oEVAzbbDuW"&gt;pic.twitter.com/oEVAzbbDuW&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  11237. &lt;p&gt;— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1771712605893128352?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;March 24, 2024&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
  11238. &lt;script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;p&gt;May, 47, has been the head coach at Florida Atlantic since the 2018-19 season. He inherited a historically awful program and immediately delivered them to decency, putting together four seasons that were mostly treading water before authoring a campaign for the ages last season. His FAU Owls went 18-2 to win Conference USA, both the regular season and tournament crown, before going on a Cinderella run to the Final Four. FAU came up just short in the national semifinals at the hands of the San Diego State Aztecs, but it was the sort of campaign that put May on national radars as a rising coach, with FAU's final record being 35-4. May's Owls returned most players from last season for 2023-24 and went 25-9 overall, 14-4 to finish 2nd in the American Athletic Conference, a new conference that they joined (in addition to playing a difficult non-conference schedule).&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  11239. &lt;p&gt;May has connections to the Midwest and the state of Michigan. He was born in Peoria, Illinois, and attended high school in Greene, Indiana. May was a student manager under Bob Knight while attending Indiana University, from which he graduated in 2000. He worked video coaching jobs at Indiana and USC before getting his first assistant coaching job at Eastern Michigan for the 2005-06 season. From there he was an assistant at Murray State, UAB, Louisiana Tech, and Florida, before taking the FAU job.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  11240. &lt;p&gt;May was under consideration for both the Ohio State and the Louisville jobs, the other top openings this cycle. OSU decided to promote their interim coach, while Michigan reportedly beat out Louisville for May's services. It is reported that May has signed a five-year contract, as most coaches at Michigan do. We will have more on May in the coming days.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  13342. &lt;h3&gt;OVERVIEW&nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
  13343. &lt;p&gt;For the third straight year, Michigan is playing for the Big Ten Hockey Tournament championship. The last two went pretty well, so why not do it a third time? In 2022 Michigan rolled into the Twin Cities and scored four goals in the first half of the game before allowing two late goals with the net empty that briefly made it close before ultimately holding on to win. Last year they rematched with Minnesota and played a back-and-forth game that was eventually won with Dylan Duke’s third period goal. Like the last two years, Michigan is playing the B1G Regular Season Champions in the title round, but this year that champion is a new team, the Michigan State Spartans.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  13348. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Bill Rapai]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13349. &lt;h3&gt;THE US&nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
  13350. &lt;p&gt;Michigan has started to heat up after their NCAA Tournament hopes were in peril in mid-February. They are 6-1 in the last seven games, sweeping Notre Dame twice at Yost (one of those series being the B1G quarters) and then taking two of three from Minnesota, splitting in the regular season (Michigan’s win was in OT) before defeating them last weekend in the B1G semifinals. It’s been a little while since the Wolverines played anybody outside the Irish and the Gophers.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13351. &lt;p&gt;Last weekend’s game against Minnesota was probably the best hockey game that Michigan has played in a long time. They’ve had some flashier efforts where the puck goes in a lot (the first meeting with MSU stands out), but Michigan has never been as coordinated and in-sync as a team as they were on Saturday night. And they certainly have not been better defensively at any other point this season. Michigan scored once early, got a goal disallowed on a frustrating offsides review, and tacked on one more later. Otherwise it was the defense that did the trick. It was Michigan’s best checking game, their most structured game, a masterful defensive effort that gave Minnesota almost nothing in the dangerous areas and routinely hemmed in the Gopher D with overwhelming cycle pressure.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13352. &lt;p&gt;The stakes in this game for Michigan are pretty B1G focused, since the NCAA picture is more or less set in stone. Michigan is going to be a 3-seed and is almost certainly going to draw one of Quinnipiac or Maine in the first round no matter what happens against MSU. So, the desire to win this game is the “get another ring/raise another banner” thing and the “win a title by beating MSU in their building” thing, which is more than enough motivation.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13353. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13354. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13355. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="a1e689ab-6e7f-45cd-9c4e-949209361d6a" height="458" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/53519748922_b160c887d1_c.jpg" width="687" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13356. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Bill Rapai]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13357. &lt;h3&gt;THE THEM&lt;/h3&gt;
  13358. &lt;p&gt;The turnaround story of the last few years in the B1G has been Michigan State, who went through a dark ages period that made Michigan Football from 2008-2014 look like a winning operation. They made the NCAA Tournament in 2011-12, the first year of Tom Anastos, but then declined into oblivion as Anastos proved himself to be one of the worst coaches/hires in NCAA hockey memory. He went 59-105-20 in five seasons following that first year, before finally being replaced by Danton Cole. Cole flashed promise in his third season but the two years post-COVID were also Anstos-quality and Cole was fired after five seasons, having compiled a 58-101-12 record.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13359. &lt;p&gt;The last games of the Cole era were also the most recent time these two teams met in the BTT, a first round series at Yost when Michigan was the 2 and MSU was 7th (dead-last). That series consisted of two of the most humiliating hockey games I can remember watching, as Michigan swept MSU, outscoring Sparty 12-1. Add up the Cole era and State went 117-206-32 in a decade between Anastos and Cole, a seemingly impossible mark for a program with MSU’s resources and history.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13360. &lt;p&gt;After firing Cole, MSU hired Adam Nightingale from the USNTDP (same place Cole had been). Nightingale also had ties to the school, having played at MSU from 2003-2005 after starting at Lake State. Nightingale steered the Spartans back on track immediately, going 18-18-2 in Year #1 and doing something neither Cole or Anastos did, which is win a B1G series. They then lost to Minnesota in the semis, but going into the offseason you knew that MSU was a team on the rise.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13361. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13362. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9b08b6ef-3833-45f4-91ee-8e3d366306aa" height="445" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/53520810278_d05ee9c163_c.jpg" width="667" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13363. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Bill Rapai]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13364. &lt;p&gt;Nightingale then hit the portal as aggressively as any coach in college hockey and then got a major gift. Late in the offseason it was announced that defenseman&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Artyom Levshunov&lt;/strong&gt;, a highly prized NHL Draft prospect from Belarus, had decided to play college hockey. Levshunov picked MSU, who could offer him #1 defenseman minutes and a role on the top power play, again raising the talent level of his team. This MSU team was projected by your author to be among the B1G’s top three squads this year in the preseason and indeed they have been, wire to wire one of the top teams in the conference and top eight or so in the country. They edged past Wisconsin to win the regular season crown in the final weekend and then knocked off Cinderella Ohio State last week in the semifinals.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13365. &lt;p&gt;As for MSU’s personnel, their star talent begins with Levshunov. The defender is tied for the team lead in points with 32 and is the team's far-and-away best from a +/- standpoint, with a +25. He plays on the top pair with captain&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Nash Nienhuis&lt;/strong&gt;, a duo you can expect to log a lot of minutes against the Wolverines tomorrow night. Levshunov also mans the top power play unit for the Spartans and from a professional standpoint, he is their most attractive player to the NHL scouts who will be in the building.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13366. &lt;p&gt;Outside of Levshunov, MSU's roster of skaters is roughly characterized as being a group of deep but not necessarily star-studded scorers. No one has more than 15 goals but six have scored in double figures and nine have notched at least 8 goals.&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Isaac Howard&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;was a first round pick of the Tampa Bay Lightning who struggled at Minnesota-Duluth, transferring to MSU in the offseason and he's found a groove in EL. Howard's 32 points is tied with Levshunov for the team lead and this title game brings a fun storyline for Howard, as he was one of Team USA's best players at the World Juniors over the holidays, where he was on a line with... Gavin Brindley and Frank Nazar. These teams know each other in several ways!&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13367. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13368. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="42b2c750-4ca9-490e-9918-b8c9377f9c63" height="459" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/53478654103_8eaee75d1e_c.jpg" width="688" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13369. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Bill Rapai]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13370. &lt;p&gt;Michigan State is a high scoring team and the rest of their scorers are the various dimensions of college hockey. There's undrafted&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Joey Larson&lt;/strong&gt;, the team's leading goalscorer, who transferred in the offseason from much smaller Northern Michigan, an example of how a big brand like MSU can flex their muscles in the portal era. There's&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Nicolas Müller&lt;/strong&gt;, a fifth-year player who endured the depravity of the Cole era and has stayed to see MSU's return to glory. There are talented underclassmen who Nightingale recruited, like&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Gavin O'Connell&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;and&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Karsen Dorwart&lt;/strong&gt;. And there's&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Red Savage&lt;/strong&gt;, a former Red Wings draft pick who came over in the portal after two years at Miami. Nightingale used every tool available between recruiting, the existing roster, and the portal, to build a team with three legitimate scoring lines that tests the depth of their opposition.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13371. &lt;p&gt;We should also talk a bit MSU's playing style. They play very high event games, with lots of shots both directions where scoring is not at a premium. Only three teams in college hockey put more shots on net per game than MSU, but only five&nbsp;&lt;em&gt;allow&nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;more shots on net against than MSU. Both goalies get tested often in the games the Spartans play and MSU likes to cheat in defensive integrity for chances. While defending in their own zone, they like to leave a forward high, waiting to bust out for a rush chance if the puck gets turned over. It has its downsides from a defensive standpoint, but also its upsides from an offensive angle.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13372. &lt;p&gt;Early in the season it felt like Michigan State's systems left them in good position to gobble up most teams in college hockey, but vulnerable to getting ripped apart by teams with elite, NHL skill. They'd gotten pummeled by Boston College (11 goals against in two games) and Michigan hung seven on them in the first game and had four through 30 minutes of hockey in the second game. However, to the credit of Adam Nightingale, the tide has turned some as the Spartans made savvy adjustment. I thought MSU played a much tighter and more defensively responsible game against Michigan the second time these two teams met for a series and I'm curious to see what playing style they show against the Wolverines tomorrow. Will they open it up a bit more and play their aggressive, gambling ways? Or focus more on defending Michigan's high skill and pouncing on opportunities when they get them? I'd lean more towards the latter.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13373. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13374. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="dd502a42-9d6f-4435-9626-ac0399dfc6cc" height="456" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/52400202040_8b4e07ab1a_c.jpg" width="684" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13375. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Bill Rapai]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13376. &lt;h3&gt;SPECIAL TEAMS&nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
  13377. &lt;p&gt;Two of the top five power plays in college hockey will be on display on Saturday night, Michigan's historically great unit as well as MSU's 5th-ranked unit. The only other teams in the top five are the Boston powers (BU/BC), who are currently #1 and #2 in Pairwise, and then weirdly, Princeton (10-16-4 this season). Michigan leads the country at 35.3% on the power play(!!), which is the most efficient clip of the past ten seasons by over three percentage points. #2 of the past decade is also a Michigan team, the 2015-16 Kyle Connor-led squad that clocked in at 32%. Only a few other teams have even surpassed 30% in a season. To be up at 35% through nearly 40 games is completely crazy, but Michigan's PP refuses to cool off.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13378. &lt;p&gt;The Spartan PP is also good at 26.7% and will provide a challenge for Michigan's PK unit. The Wolverines were once among the country's worst penalty killing operations but have since improved considerably, up to 78.1%. That's still only 41st nationally but it has come a long way, a dramatic improvement in the back-half of the season. MSU isn't anything to write home about on the PK, registering at 27th with a clip of 80.9%. Both PK units will have their work cut out for them against the opposing power plays, but the challenge will be significantly greater for MSU, who has to deal with the deadly shooters Gavin Brindley and Rutger McGroarty on the wings in between the wizard up top, Seamus Casey. In the season series, Michigan has unsurprisingly had more success in the special teams battle, going 6/14 on the PP to MSU's 1/9, with a PPG in three of four meetings.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13379. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13380. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13381. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="be501823-c323-4518-ad5e-35aba365263e" height="456" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/53477613862_9fce029e66_c.jpg" width="684" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  13383. &lt;h3&gt;GOALIES&nbsp;&lt;/h3&gt;
  13384. &lt;p&gt;Well, here we go. The much discussed&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Trey Augustine&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;will play in goal for the Spartans, the freshman netminder and one-time Michigan commit. As is well known, Augustine reopened his recruitment after Mel Pearson's firing and committed to Michigan State, where he had more familiarity with his former USNTDP coach, Adam Nightingale. Augustine, a Detroit Red Wings second round draft pick in the most recent NHL Draft, has a .919 SV% this season in college play, as well as a clean 4-0 record with a .936 SV% at the World Juniors, where he backstopped Team USA to a gold medal.&lt;/p&gt;
  13385. &lt;p&gt;Augustine was not the best goalie in the conference this season (Ryan Bischel was), but he probably will be next season. The flashes of what gives Augustine a legitimate shot to be an NHL goalie are very much there and Michigan got a taste of those in their last meeting, when Augustine stopped 65 of 68 shots on the weekend in an MSU sweep. Augustine's not invincible, having given up 4+ goals eight different times this season, including twice to Michigan earlier in the season, but he does seem to have some of the Dawg In Him. His best efforts have been in the biggest moments, including that WJC effort, the Duel in the D against Michigan (36/38), the win over Wisconsin to clinch the regular season crown (44/46), and last weekend over OSU in the B1G Semis (37/38).&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13386. &lt;p&gt;As for Michigan,&nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Jacob Barczewski&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;will be in net like usual. Barczewski currently sports a .909 SV% which is fine, far from the worst case outcome and more or less what I expected when Michigan fished Barczewski out of the portal in the offseason via Canisius. There have been some really good moments, including a 50/51 weekend against Notre Dame in February that helped turn Michigan's season around, but also some very not good moments: over three starts from Mar. 1 to Mar. 9, Barczewski allowed 12 goals on 70 shots (.829). Barczewski isn't the biggest goalie and he is not necessarily the best in high-danger moments, but he's generally been solid against lower and medium danger chances. He had a get-right, easy peasy game against Minnesota last week where Michigan's defense did the work for him and hopefully both he and the defense can keep that going as much as possible against State's prodigious offense.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13387. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13388. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13389. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;img alt data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="1bbe2090-adb5-495f-b545-8befffa19e67" height="440" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/2024-03/53478510396_d5d73a3bff_c.jpg" width="660" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13390. &lt;p class="text-align-center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;[Bill Rapai]&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  13391. &lt;h3&gt;KEYS&lt;/h3&gt;
  13392. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Get traffic in front of Trey Augustine&lt;/strong&gt;. Something I thought Michigan didn't do very well in the last series against Sparty (the MSU sweep in February) was get bodies and commotion in front of Augustine. Michigan got some top notch chances against Augustine in the two games, but they were solo chances, 1-on-1 between the shooter and the goalie. We interpret breakaways or those sorts of looks in the OZ as being A++ chances but sometimes when you face an elite goalie on his game, those chances are not how you beat him. A hot goalie is going to save most of those he can see and has a chance to save. If Augustine comes out hot tomorrow night, Michigan should focus on taking more shots from the point with bodies in front, looking for deflections and taking away Augustine's vision. Shooting for rebounds and crashing the net hard are also ways to beat hot goalies, not necessarily high percentage chance creation but playing in ways to legitimately solve the goalie because he doesn't have a chance to stop it.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13393. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Own the special teams battle.&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;As we mentioned in the special teams section, Michigan has decisively won the special teams battle in the season series against MSU this season, even as the outcomes of the games haven't gone their way on the whole. Michigan needs to continue to do what they're good at, which is ruthlessly punish opponents who give them PP opportunities and increasingly, frustrate opposing power plays as well. If Michigan can hold MSU 0fer on the Spartan PP opportunities while popping in at least one goal on the PP themselves, that goes a long, long way to coming home with hardware.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13394. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Have Jake Barczewski be good.&nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;I know... this isn't much of a key for the team to focus on, but a lot of this matchup, as it often does in hockey, comes down to goaltending. I want to see Michigan play a good defensive game, I want to see them replicate a good bit of what they did against Minnesota in this one, controlling shifts in the offensive zone and choking off rush chances against in the neutral zone, but MSU is a better and deeper offensive team than the Gophs. It probably won't be as complete of a muzzling, especially if/when MSU gambles to create off the rush. I hope Michigan doesn't fall victim to MSU's aggression much, but it'll probably happen a few times. MSU will probably get a handful of A-grade chances even if Michigan plays a stellar defensive game. They will need their goalie to be at his best and rise to the occasion to win this game, because MSU will likely have pretty good goaltending in the other net to boot.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  13395. &lt;h3&gt;PREDICTIONS&lt;/h3&gt;

Food for thought)).&lt;/p&gt;
  13427.  
  13428. &lt;p&gt;Anyway, Daniel trashed Jet's single passing QB, and insurance seller, Aaron Rodgers (is the 'd' necessary for this name?) for expressing a Covid opinion different than the Man Show host Jimmy Kimmel. I've listened to Aaron Rogers on some other podcasts. I know he is a...liberated thinker... believes he has had multiple alien encounters... a bit unconventional... Slightly outside the main stream. The show is a good listen. (Emergency Pod - Aaron Rodgers Jan 12th.)&lt;/p&gt;
  13429.  
  13430. &lt;p&gt;At the end, Daniel chants "F the Jetts.... F the Jets." Silly and sophomoric I know. I'm not into the NFL, and frankly, look down on die-hard NFL fans as I believe college football is such a better product (though trending down). That said, and this is all a set up for this: If a chant says "F the ___)" it has to be a one syllable word. I wanted to create a similar F the Spartans/MSUs/etc and it just doesn't work. The color scheme of the two teams is a match. Pretending to be something like you are not, i.e. JY Jets playing in New Jersey, and MSU pretending to be a respectable university... Check and Check. Match. But the chant, isn't working. If anyone has an idea before Saturday, please let me know.&lt;/p&gt;

But F Three Syllables is also time-honored and classic version of the F chant.&lt;/p&gt;
  13516.  
  13517. &lt;p&gt;F O-Hi-O (clap, clap, clap clap clap) F O-Hi-O (clap, clap, clap clap clap)&lt;/p&gt;
  13518.  
  13519. &lt;p&gt;This works even with the insertion of "the" as one of the syllables.&lt;/p&gt;
  13520.  
  13521. &lt;p&gt;F The Buck-Eyes&nbsp;(clap, clap, clap clap clap)&lt;/p&gt;
  13522.  
  13523. &lt;p&gt;Now granted, you cannot use just any three syllable construction. You have to be able to reasonably hit the middle syllable harder than the first and third (not counting the F).&lt;/p&gt;
  13524.  
  13525. &lt;p&gt;F M-S-U does not work. However, this does:&lt;/p&gt;

  13531. &lt;p&gt;F U Spar-Ty&lt;/p&gt;
  13532.  
  13533. &lt;p&gt;Now, if you insist on the one syllable (or in total, three syllable) version, you might have to resort to F U instead of F The:&lt;/p&gt;
  13534.  
  13535. &lt;p&gt;F U State, F U State&lt;/p&gt;

  14463. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;South Carolina&lt;/strong&gt; (Lamont Paris) vs Oregon, 4pm, TNT&lt;/li&gt;

  14467. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Washington State&lt;/strong&gt; (Kyle Smith) vs &lt;strong&gt;Drake&lt;/strong&gt; (Darian DeVries), 10:05, TruTV&lt;/li&gt;
  14468. &lt;/ul&gt;
  14469. &lt;p&gt;FRIDAY&lt;/p&gt;
  14470. &lt;ul&gt;
  14471. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FAU&lt;/strong&gt; (Dusty May) vs Northwestern, 12:15, CBS&lt;/li&gt;
  14472. &lt;li&gt;Baylor vs &lt;strong&gt;Colgate&lt;/strong&gt; (Matt Langel), 12:40, TruTV&lt;/li&gt;
  14473. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Nebraska&lt;/strong&gt; (Fred Hoiberg) vs Texas A&amp;M, 6:50, TNT&lt;/li&gt;
  14474. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Duke&lt;/strong&gt; (John Scheyer) vs Vermont, 7:10, CBS&lt;/li&gt;
  14475. &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Utah St&lt;/strong&gt; (Danny Sprinkle) vs TCU, 9:55, TBS&lt;/li&gt;
  14476. &lt;li&gt;St Mary's vs &lt;strong&gt;Grand Canyon&lt;/strong&gt; (Bryce Drew), 10:05, TruTV&lt;/li&gt;
  14477. &lt;/ul&gt;
  14478. &lt;p&gt;Jerome Tang and KSU got knocked out of the NIT by Iowa; Amir Abdur-Rahim and USF beat UCF to advance to the second round. Josh Schertz and Indiana State beat SMU 101-92 in the exact opposite of the CSU-UVA game. I would not be surprised to hear that Michigan is poking around Tang soon, because he is just about the only guy even vaguely in the hunt who isn't coaching basketball right now. I wouldn't put a whole lot of stock in that, hypothetically, unless it continues after guys start getting knocked out.&lt;/p&gt;
  14479. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;[After THE JUMP: how about them Rams?]&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  14480. &lt;!--break--&gt;&lt;div id="read-more"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  14481. &lt;h2&gt;The Relevant Tourney Game Already Played&lt;/h2&gt;
  14482. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Niko Medved&lt;/strong&gt; and Colorado State obliterated Virginia 67-42. I'm not here to tell you that defensive performance means much against the nation's #211 outfit but Virginia entered that game with the #7 defense in the country and has a 6'8" guy, Ryan Dunn, who's going to go in the first round largely because of his defensive ability.&lt;/p&gt;
  14483. &lt;p&gt;That 67 doesn't seem that impressive at first glance but once you factor in the sludgeball UVA plays you get 1.1 points per possession, and the remarkable thing is that CSU did this at the rim. They hit 64% of their twos despite missing a number of bunnies and having other shots altered or erased by Dunn. They got zero fast break points, because Virginia, and still had the Cavs in a blender. Some of the passing sequences here are remarkable:&lt;/p&gt;
  14484. &lt;div class="embed-container"&gt;
  14485. &lt;iframe allowfullscreen frameborder="0" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/NilcV7tbhW4" title="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NilcV7tbhW4" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  14486. &lt;p&gt;They did not follow the mid-major script to take down an elite high major defense—rain in threes. They only took 14 vs 39 possessions that ended in a 2PA or free throws.&lt;/p&gt;
  14487. &lt;p&gt;It was a weird experience, being emotionally involved in a basketball game and thinking "I love this offense." Hasn't happened in a couple years.&lt;/p&gt;
  14488. &lt;h2&gt;But This Guy Hasn't Won In The Tourney&lt;/h2&gt;
  14489. &lt;p&gt;Everyone wants to run it back with Beilein, insofar as that is possible, and one crucial component of why Beilein was so attractive is that he had an Elite Eight and Sweet 16 run at West Virginia before coming over to Michigan. Literally no one I highlighted on the above list has been to the Sweet 16 except for May's Final Four run a year ago.&lt;/p&gt;
  14490. &lt;p&gt;There is not a Beilein out there right now. Let's define "Beilein":&lt;/p&gt;
  14491. &lt;ul&gt;
  14492. &lt;li&gt;High major coach.&lt;/li&gt;
  14493. &lt;li&gt;Ten-year track record of success.&lt;/li&gt;
  14494. &lt;li&gt;Coming off three top 50 teams at a school that does not have a lot of in-built advantages.&lt;/li&gt;
  14495. &lt;li&gt;Went to the Elite Eight and Sweet 16 in two of the prior three years.&lt;/li&gt;
  14496. &lt;/ul&gt;
  14497. &lt;p&gt;The previous two S16s had these teams, grouped into a few different categories:&lt;/p&gt;
  14498. &lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;UNPOACHABLE&lt;/strong&gt;
  14499. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Gonzaga (x2), Duke, North Carolina, Purdue, Arizona, Houston (x2), Michigan (woo!), Kansas, Alabama, Creighton, San Diego State, Tennessee, Michigan State, Texas, Xavier, UConn.&lt;/p&gt;
  14500. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  14501. &lt;p&gt;Xavier is hypothetically poachable but Michigan isn't hiring Sean Miller. Brian Dutcher is hypothetically poachable but the reasons that's unlikely have been discussed in this space already.&lt;/p&gt;
  14502. &lt;/div&gt;
  14503. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ALREADY POACHED&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  14504. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;St Peter's, Providence, Villanova&lt;/p&gt;
  14505. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  14506. &lt;p&gt;Shaheen Holloway went to Seton Hall, where he's been NIT-ish his first two years. Ed Cooley left Providence for Georgetown, where he went 9-23 in year one. Jay Wright was poached by retirement.&lt;/p&gt;
  14507. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SEEMS LIKE A BAD IDEA&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  14508. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Arkansas (x2), Texas Tech, Miami (x2)&lt;/p&gt;
  14509. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  14510. &lt;p&gt;Texas Tech's Mark Adams resigned after being racist at a player. Miami's Jim Larranaga is three years older than John Beilein; at that point just hire Beilein. The wheels really came off for Eric Musselman at Arkansas this year; they finished 108th in Kenpom and went 6-12 in the SEC. Also, Musselman is in the Hoiberg genre of coaches. The transfer portal he relies on isn't likely to translate.&lt;/p&gt;
  14511. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;EH?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  14512. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;UCLA (2x), Princeton, Kansas State, FAU&lt;/p&gt;
  14513. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  14514. &lt;p&gt;Jerome Tang and Dusty May are on the list. Princeton's Mitch Henderson followed up his S16 year with a very good Ivy season (24-5, 12-2, #67 Kenpom) and looks like a good coach but in 2024 Michigan cannot hire an Ivy coach without some intervening years in the real world. The portal could eat him alive.&lt;/p&gt;
  14515. &lt;p&gt;Let's stipulate that if UCLA's AD is Dave Brandon level, sure, yeah, Mick Cronin would be a good idea:&lt;/p&gt;
  14516. &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/image_4773.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="image" border="0" height="772" src="https://mgoblog.com/sites/default/files/image_thumb_4652.png" style="margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; float: none; display: block; background-image: none;" title="image" width="600" loading="lazy"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  14517. &lt;p&gt;If he's not, Cronin &lt;a href="https://www.si.com/college/louisville/basketball/2024-coaching-candidate-profile-mick-cronin#:~:text=Other%20Factors%3A%20First%20and%20foremost,a%20loophole%20in%20his%20contract."&gt;has a 20 million dollar buyout&lt;/a&gt;. And even Mick Cronin would come in for a bunch of criticism for finishing his career at Cincinnati with seven bids and no S16 appearances after 2012.&lt;/p&gt;
  14518. &lt;p&gt;The only way Michigan can get a coach with a Beilein level of success in the tourney is if May goes on another run. Therefore we should probably be looking at other metrics, which I'd want to do anyway. To me the more important thing about Beilein is that he took over a 7-20 WVU team and steadily improved them; his final three seasons saw Beilein finish #35, #16, and #33 in Kenpom. Beilein's final three conference records: 8-8, 11-5, 9-7. Trust the efficiency margin above all.&lt;/p&gt;
  14519. &lt;h2&gt;Names&lt;/h2&gt;
  14520. &lt;p&gt;Uh… ask again later. Sam Webb &lt;a href="https://247sports.com/college/michigan/board/102410/Contents/michigan-basketball-coaching-hot-board-vol-30-228975461/?page=1"&gt;brought up Abdur-Rahim&lt;/a&gt; in a paywalled post with some interesting details about his potential candidacy. He links &lt;a href="https://gousfbulls.com/news/2024/3/18/mens-basketball-amir-abdur-rahim-aman-of-the-people.aspx"&gt;this piece&lt;/a&gt; from USF's site which may be of interest. On3 doesn't really &lt;a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/michigan-wolverines/news/the-3-2-1-michigan-basketball-coach-search-where-it-stands-where-its-headed/"&gt;have much&lt;/a&gt; except an assertion that the giant buyout guys are not going to be in play.&lt;/p&gt;
  14521. &lt;p&gt;I'd take &lt;strong&gt;Medved&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;DeVries&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Abdur-Rahim&lt;/strong&gt;, and &lt;strong&gt;May&lt;/strong&gt; versus the field, FWIW.&lt;/p&gt;
  14522. &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Etc.:&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="https://247sports.com/college/michigan/article/michigan-forward-yo-yo-khayat-enters-the-transfer-portal-report-228902514/#:~:text=Michigan%20basketball%20forward%20Youssef%20%E2%80%9CYo%2DYo%E2%80%9D%20Khayat%20will%20enter,of%20an%208%2D24%20season."&gt;Exit Yo-Yo&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

  15248.  
  15249. &lt;blockquote&gt;
  15250. &lt;p&gt;How is Chris Collins the closest thing to JB? I’m genuinely curious, because I don’t see it at all.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  15251.  
  15252. &lt;p&gt;But perhaps Brian was pointing out that Collins would not leave NW for us (which I agree with), hence the “no”.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  15253. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  15254.  
  15255. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  15256.  
  15257. &lt;blockquote&gt;
  15258. &lt;p&gt;Absolutely fucking not Chris Collins. We're not Northwestern, we have substantially more recruiting ability. Michigan football has no problem getting valuable transfers in to pass admissions. There's plenty of kids who get decent enough grades. We just need a coach who's not too inept to spend tons of recruiting capital convincing players to transfer without checking if they, like, go to classes or not.&lt;/p&gt;
  15259. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  15260.  
  15261. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  15262.  
  15263. &lt;blockquote&gt;
  15264. &lt;p&gt;Am I taking crazy pills with this Chris Collins stuff?&lt;/p&gt;
  15265.  
  15266. &lt;p&gt;15–17&lt;/p&gt;
  15267.  
  15268. &lt;p&gt;13–19&lt;/p&gt;
  15269.  
  15270. &lt;p&gt;8–23&lt;/p&gt;
  15271.  
  15272. &lt;p&gt;9–15&lt;/p&gt;
  15273.  
  15274. &lt;p&gt;15–16&lt;/p&gt;
  15275.  
  15276. &lt;p&gt;You want a guy with a 5 year stretch of that on his resume?&lt;/p&gt;
  15277. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  15278.  
  15279. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  15280.  
  15281. &lt;blockquote&gt;
  15282. &lt;p&gt;And yes, why is it crazy to think NW has a different rule in regards to transfer credits? Again, we've seen a lot of articles saying this is specific to Michigan. Never seen anyone report it's the same at Northwestern. It's not about how smart the kid is.&lt;/p&gt;
  15283. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  15284.  
  15285. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  15286.  
  15287. &lt;blockquote&gt;
  15288. &lt;p&gt;I 100% would love Collins. Wanted him after JB left and a lot of Michigan fans were against him&lt;/p&gt;
  15289. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  15290.  
  15291. &lt;p&gt;&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

  16068.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;I just did a search on McDermott to see if I could find out what his buyout actually is, but several articles later there's no mention of it. Sam said on the Roundtable that the buyout didn't escalate into sky-high territory, from which he infers it's possible to kick the tires and see if McDermott might be interested.&lt;/p&gt;
  16069.  
  16070. &lt;p&gt;As I was reading I came across McDermott's quote that "there's no where I'd rather finish my career than Creighton." Not unusual for a newly extended coach to say something like that, of course, but it seems like he might really mean it. He's been there for 14 years and is 59 years old; Michigan's basketball program is in a crater and at least a 2-3 year rebuild away from being relevant again.&lt;/p&gt;
  16071.  
  16072. &lt;p&gt;I think that I prefer a younger up and comer--DeVries is my first choice (longtime McDermott assistant before taking over at Drake)--and I'm warming to the idea of Medved or May.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

There are a lot of coaches who would be enticed by the Michigan job. The NIL will not match the blue bloods for sure, but there is enough out there to out pace the Iowa State's/Marquette's/Houston's/Creighton's of the world. The portal is an issue is you want to be portal guy but if you get a coach who is not portal reliant but rather uses it to patch a hole it shouldn't be a huge obstacle.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  16387. &lt;p&gt;Michigan is going to be a problem for any coach here due to admissions fervor thus it falls in rank as a job whereas other places let their coach get anyone they want.&nbsp; Put Shannon and Love on this team and Juwan is still coaching.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  16510.            &lt;div property="schema:text" class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-comment-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since people here continue to bash admissions even after Shannon's legal troubles, are those more knowledgeable than I of the opinion there were no red flags in refusing to admit him, purely an academic decision?&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
  16511.  
  16512. &lt;p&gt;I knew nothing of this accusations against him until The Athletic published a story about them this week. So I wondered about maybe being cautious in admissions was not such a bad idea?&lt;/p&gt;
  16513.  
  16514. &lt;p&gt;Admissions has been dead to me since Xavier Worthy, so I'm just trying to get perspective from those who follow this more closely.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

The issue is the transferring of credits. We dont want to lower our standards but the funny thing is if we did would anyone know? If Shannon and Love led us to a 8 seed birth this last season would the bball and school be in a better or worse position? Accept athletes credits and get them in. Nobody is going to know or care once the suit up. Even if you are against it if Shannon and Love were in a Michigan uniform today you wouldve never known.&nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  16605.  
  16606. &lt;p&gt;It's not admissions--UM (like Stanford and Northwestern and Notre Dame) will admit students who barely pass the NCAA Clearinghouse. We won't admit as high a percentage as UGA, Bama, Texas Tech, etc., but we'll do it.&lt;/p&gt;
  16607.  
  16608. &lt;p&gt;As Rice mentions, it's the Colleges or departments that have decision-making on what other universities' credits will transfer to UM as. If they won't allow a roughly equivalent 200/300 level course at another university to count for that 200/300 level course at UM, then the student gets gen ed credit and has to take that same-ish class again if they want that major. Others more UM-knowledgeable can explain how this works for gen ed/core requirements.&lt;/p&gt;
  16609.  
  16610. &lt;p&gt;So, if you're a transfer who likes UM 10% more, but would have to lose a year+ of credits, you may well choose Illinois or Miami or whomever so that you can stay on timeline to graduate. Or learn new stuff. Or not get frustrated by repeating stuff you know because of an arcane system.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
