Indianapolis — Michigan freshman center Hunter Dickinson remembers much of the chatter after the NCAA Tournament bracket was revealed on Selection Sunday.
With senior forward Isaiah Livers out indefinitely with a foot injury, naysayers weren’t expecting the Wolverines to make it out of the first weekend. Other prognosticators predicted there was no way they’d advance past the Sweet 16.
"It is funny how once the tournament was set, all I saw on social media was how Michigan is going to get upset in the 8-9 game, how we were the No. 1 seed who is probably the most likely to get upset,” Dickinson said Monday.
