I hate to put the cart before the horse...But I'm going to go out on a limb here and do it anyway. Michigan is in the Field of 64 (68-whatever) and they're going to get to strap on their Dancing Shoes!
It simply feels to good to not talk about and comment on and once again,
IT'S GREAT TO BE A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE!
IT'S GREAT TO BE A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE!
IT'S GREAT TO BE A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE!
If you didn't or couldn't watch Saturday's game, I feel for you. I truly do. Michigan went up early (12-1 at one point) and you had the feeling that they were in charge and the kids knew what they were doing against a more experienced squad. The Michigan Men of the Hardwood have definitely come of age and whatever seed they end up getting in the Big Dance, I'm sure they're going to present other coaches with a lot of headaches.
Morris is a frosh phenom and Novak is the epitome of work ethic. I would like to see an interview of the former coaches of Zach just to hear what they say about him. Something along the lines of: "Well, he wasn't a big or glitzy guy, but he got the job done!"
Hardaway, Smotrycz, and the rest of the crew are to be commended. A sweep of Sparty and that hadn't happened for almost 15 years ('96-'97). A return to the Dance when everyone was picking them to finish in the bottom of an incredibly strong Big 10.
The first round bye is a blessing in disguise. If you're truly on the bubble, you want to play in the first round in order to impress. I now think we can stumble against Illinois (BTW - We Won't) and still get an at large invite...Unless the unthinkable happens and Sparty (or someone else) has the incredible run and gets the automatic bid and forces Michigan out....
Oh, why did I even type that?
