Michigan Thursday: The Madness Begins

With Michigan heading out West again means that the Wolverines will be playing late night in the Eastern Time Zone.   The Wolverines bracket has some similarity to last year; Montana again, a Texas team, and Florida State.

If Michigan beats Montana the Wolverines will have a tough match-up with the Gators or Nevada on Saturday.   The Wolverines will need to continue to defend at a high-level and shoot the 3 effectively.  We need Matthews to have tournament he did last year with Iggy and Poole playing well.  Don't forget that Michigan struggled with Montana early in the game last year.

  • Coach Nau gave his first Press Conference at Michigan.  

  • Also new coach Anthony Campanile is still looking for good pizza in Ann Arbor.

  • Does Michigan have a secret weapon on the Defensive Line?  They might.  Defensive end Luiji Vilain came to Michigan in the 2016 class a couple spots short of a 5 star player.   After surgeries on both knees and missing two full seasons, Luiji is finally healthy this spring and looking forward to playing in his first season.   He is probably the #1 player to keep an eye on in Spring Practice.  

  • Sounds like its a Michigan school decision if Chris Evans makes it back for his senior year, not a football decision.  There are plenty of videos of him working out on social media, hopefully he is working just as hard in the classroom.
