Dusty May has been appointed as the new head coach for the University of Michigan basketball team. May brings experience from successful seasons at FAU and aims to rebuild the Michigan program. He emphasizes long-term goals but faces challenges in the short term, including roster construction and staff changes. May has already targeted five-star recruit Liam McNeely and added a new staff position. His decision to join Michigan was influenced by tradition, resources, and the support of key figures like alum Charles Ramsey and John Beilein. May's appointment has been praised as a significant move for Michigan basketball.
Dusty May was hired to be the next head coach at Michigan after taking FAU to back-to-back NCAA tournaments. He's one of several former Indiana managers spread across the world of basketball after spending time under Bob Knight. @Alex__Schiffer’s feature ⤵️
