It wasn't the dream ending anyone in Ann Arbor hoped for, but it sure was a successful season. Michigan basketball was knocked out of the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament in Year 1 under Dusty May after looking like it might have just enough to outlast Auburn. That all came crashing down in the second half, as the Wolverines watched the Tigers hit one shot after another. Tony and Andrew talk about their biggest takeaways from May's first year in Ann Arbor and what lessons can be taken from the 2024-25 season going forward.
Then, the guys talk about Michigan's busy start in the transfer portal, already landing Elliot Cadeau (North Carolina), Morez Johnson Jr. (Illinois) and Yaxel Lendeborg (UAB) in just the first few days after the season. Is this another sign that May is perfectly set up to succeed in this day and age?
And last but not least, we can't forget about spring football. Sherrone Moore's crew is on the field and getting in work, with of course the biggest question still being who will be the starting quarterback. Tony makes a prediction for the starter against New Mexico in Week 1, and shares a takeaway from the offensive and defensive side of the ball.
