The preseason is over and the games that count start on Friday – complete with raising a championship game banner. Last year incluced a 16-0 start, time at #1, and a trip to the final Monday, all with fun basketball to watch and high-integrity players and coaches. This year promises more of the same, starting with two returning lottery picks/preseason 1st team B1G/potential All-Americans, and including other sharpshooters and do-it-all wings, veteran bigs, and top-notch freshmen. Having UM basketball to watch again is just marvelous. It’s a great time to be a UM Hoops Fan.
