In our Big Ten Offseason Evaluation series, we’ll break down the roster changes and outlook for all 18 Big Ten basketball teams heading into the 2024-25 season. Next up is Michigan, which made a coaching change this offseason.
Michigan basketball enters a new era after firing Juwan Howard, who went 87-72 across five seasons but just 8-24 last year, and hiring Dusty May from Florida Atlantic.
Here’s a full breakdown of Michigan’s busy offseason following its coaching change, plus its outlook for next year.Dug McDaniel , Terrance Williams II , Tarris Reed Jr. , Youssef Khayat , George Washington III Who they gainedVladislav Goldin , Danny Wolf , Roddy Gayle Jr. , Rubin Jones , Tre Donaldson , Sam Walters Justin Pippen , Durral Brooks , Lorenzo Cason Reasons for optimism
Success for Michigan in year one will require May to work wonders with players he’s never coached and a roster that must quickly build chemistry. The transfer portal headliners include a pair of centers – Danny Wolf from Yale and Vladislav Goldin, the only Florida Atlantic transfer – who create a versatile inside-out duo, with Wolf able to knock down threes and Goldin an efficient 67.3% interior scorer. Both averaged more than a block per game, giving Michigan solid interior defense.
