Since their coach left, the bulk of Michigan's team will be looking to transfer. Maybe we can get come of their guys.
A couple guys for positions of need:
Zeb Jackson, 2020 PG/SG from Maumee, OH.
https://247sports.com/Player/Zeb-Jackson-46055107/
Jon Teske, just finished his junior year at UM. Was their starter this past season. 7 foot center from Medina, OH.
https://247sports.com/Player/Jon-Teske-47898/
Zeb is going to Michigan either way...and he'd be scooped up by someone much bigger than us if not. Kid is a star in the making.

That is very surprising!
And worse still, it's during a pretty terrible time. No idea how this doesn't completely destroy one semi-major team's season with how late a team will have to backfill once Michigan is done with their search.
Not completely unsurprising though...Michigan lost their top 4 players this season to the draft (Brazdiekas, Matthews, Poole, and Simpson), and the Asst. GM of the Cavs is Mike Gansey, who played under Beilein in his time at WVU. Add that to the fact that he was a finalist for the Pistons gig last summer, and it's clear that he was open to the opportunity.
… or the NCAA's about to come down on them.
It's not like Michigan hasn't gotten caught with their hand in the cookie jar before with an "aw shucks" nice old guy coach.
I'd be surprised if this was the case. Beilien runs a squeaky clean program. Seriously. His reputation is really good in that respect.
The GM at Cleveland is a former player for Beilien at WVU.

Yep, that kind of came out of nowhere. There losing a heck of a coach. I'm sure they're scrambling who to look at now.
I wonder if UCLA'S coach Cronin will try to leave UCLA and claim Michigan was always his dream job. haha
While that would be funny, I think Michigan will be pursuing the type of candidate that turned UCLA down long before they offered Mick a job.

That would be interesting, because Pettway might be back in play for us.
I thought we already filled our staff? I can't see us "unhiring" somebody at this point to make room. Even if we have a spot left, Pettway is a guy you have to budget for first, then pay the others with what's left. I'm assuming Brannen paid everybody he hired VERY well relative to their prior profile and prior salaries (if he's got the budget, why not give his assistants all he can?) In other words, at this point I doubt Brannon could still match his earlier offer to Pettway even if we still have a slot available.

I've seen assistant coaches moved into Director or Basketball (or Football) Ops positions to make room for other coaches. I don't think Brannen would do this but it has been done. I have a feeling Oats is pretty happy in his Alabama role and think this is a nonstarter.

Michigan is one of the few programs rich enough to poach a currently-successful coach from another P5 school in an outright bidding war. It doesn't need to take a chance on a mid major promotee.

Again, you'd be talking about moving the low man on the totem pole to ground level. I can't see Brannen doing it and even more critically: that ain't gonna free up anywhere near enough money to lure Pettway at this point.

Huggins to Michigan?
IMO, not in a million years. I loved Huggins while he was here, but I imagine Michigan wouldn't be as tolerant of a drunkard with a sketchy past as WVU.
Holy ****, I was just kidding.

Unless you make a tuba out of a spittoon, I'm going to have to say no.

Watch out Ypsilanti the NCAA will be coming the Hurons' way.
LSU and Auburn obviously got caught since the NCAA just came out with a 5 year probation and post-season ban on Florida A&M.
