The long wait for the Michigan basketball season officially ends tonight.
We have seen the Wolverines play St. John's and Cincinnati in exhibition games. But things count for real tonight, starting with the Oakland Golden Grizzlies.
Greg Kampe is the longest-tenured head coach in college basketball. The Wolverines are entering the second season under head coach Dusty May. The expectations are high after a trip to the Sweet 16 last season, along with a Big Ten tournament championship.
Michigan landed what's arguably the best transfer portal class led by Yaxel Lendeborg. The Wolverines also signed former North Carolina point guard Elliot Cadeau, along with UCLA center Aday Mara, and Illinois center Morez Johnson.
