ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Just under five years after the last head coach introduction for the basketball program, and two months after last being in the Junge Family Center (for the introduction of Sherrone Moore as the new Michigan football head coach), Dusty May stood in front of the media and many from the athletic department as the 18th head coach in Michigan basketball history.
It was something of a whirlwind for May, who just under a week ago, was the head coach of the Florida Atlantic Owls, a team that had made the Final Four last year but were ousted from the NCAA Tournament in the first round this year. Michigan moved quickly to hire May, competing directly with a Louisville program that had appeared to be in the pole position. However, on Tuesday, May officially took charge of the Michigan Wolverines.
WolverinesWire was on hand and captured some of the action of May’s introduction to the world as the new head coach of the maize and blue.
