Summary

In this episode of The Michigan Basketball Insider, Sam Webb and Tim McCormick discuss Michigan's run to the Sweet 16, highlighting the team's continued resilience and coaching adjustments. They praised Roddy Gayle’s brilliant effort versus Texas A&M and the mental toughness he showed in the months leading up to it to never give up on shooting the basketball. They also highlighted LJ Cason’s crucial ability to attack the Aggies off the dribble. From there Tre Donaldson's growth into a clutch player was discussed, noting his key performances against Maryland, Wisconsin, and Texas A&M. They also credited Dusty May's strategic changes and the team's improved defense and rebounding. Then, despite being 10-point underdogs against Auburn, Tim predicted that Michigan's depth and May’s superior coaching acumen compared to Bruce Pearl would lead to a one-point victory for the Wolverines. They emphasized the importance of avoiding foul trouble for Vlad Goldin and Danny Wolf in order to get the W, potentially setting up a Michigan-Michigan State Elite Eight matchup.
