Overview
- Athletic director Warde Manuel said he will “keep the conversation going” to keep coach Dusty May at Michigan and acknowledged other schools want him.
- Michigan reached the Final Four with a 95-62 rout of Tennessee, part of four NCAA Tournament wins by an average of 22.5 points, and will face Arizona next in Indianapolis.
- The North Carolina head-coaching vacancy has become a prominent storyline around the Wolverines, with fans calling for May to stay and media linking him to the job.
- Reporter Jeff Goodman said his sources view May taking the UNC job as unlikely, though he stopped short of ruling it out.
- May’s rapid build in Ann Arbor — a 62-13 record in two seasons and a roster stacked with top recruits and a five-star transfer — has heightened his appeal to blueblood programs.
