Michigan Tuesday: Looks Like Another Top 10 Team

John Beilein's squad continues to make news off the court.   ESPN's Jason King has Michigan ranked #9 going into next season and the Wolverines just added another player to the 2013 team.

Andrew Dakich has accepted a preferred walk-on spot on Michigan's 2013 roster next year.   Andrew of course is the son of former IU player and coach Dan Dakich who also happens to be a ESPN college basketball game analyst.   Dan also coaches AAU basketball in Indiana and has coached some of the current Wolverines.  

Andrew is a 6'2 160 pound point guard and wasn't ranked by Rivals.   He had walk-on interest from the likes of Butler, Purdue and Michigan.  Having another ball handler from a basketball family is always a good thing.  Expect Dan to cover a ton of Michigan Basketball games the next 4 years. 





Here is ESPN's/ABC Primetime Schedule for next season:

Sept. 7: Notre Dame at Michigan, 8 p.m. ET, ABC or ESPN or ESPN2

Sept. 14: Notre Dame at Purdue, 8 p.m. ET, ABC or ESPN or ESPN2

Sept. 28: Wisconsin at Ohio State, 8 p.m. ET, ABC or ESPN or ESPN2

Oct. 5: Ohio State at Northwestern, 8 p.m. ET, ABC or ESPN or ESPN2

Oct. 12: Michigan at Penn State, 5 p.m. ET, ESPN or ESPN2

Oct. 26: Penn State at Ohio State, 8 p.m. ET, ABC or ESPN or ESPN2


  • The buzz around Michigan and LB Chase Winovich is very positive.   Chase is expected back on campus on May 10th and I think its safe to put him on "commit watch".

  • MO LB Kyron Watson is also planning a visit on the 20th of May.  So it could be a race to who commits first.
