So the ‘big games’ for Michigan’s non-con are set, we reckon?

HOME: Creighton, Oregon
AWAY: Louisville
NEUTRAL: Atlantis

Louisville is 5th in the Torvik preseason projections. Should be a tough test.

Higher than Duke

This seems like one of the more difficult non conference schedules we have had in awhile.

And Chris Mack has long been a name linked to the Michigan job as a replacement for Beilein for years when he was at Xavier. And could be a name linked again down the road.

@ Louisville + The Bourbon Trail. Might be tough to get to work the next day.

I believe the word on Mack has been that Louisville is a dream job and that he wants to retire early. So I can’t see him getting linked to the Michigan job again.

From what I recall, it wasn’t his dream job, moreso he did it for his wife since that is where she is from and wanted to be.

Heard that from the Petinos before Martin hired Amaker.
