The Michigan Wolverines currently sit at 7-13 overall and 2-7 in the Big Ten, which places them last in the conference standings. Dating back to 2021 when the Wolverines lost in the Elite 8 to UCLA, they are 44-43 overall. After making the Sweet 16 in 2022, Michigan missed the tournament last year and is on pace to not even make the NIT this season.
All of these alarming statistics have made Michigan athletic director, Warde Manuel, concerned about the team. However, his concern levels aren’t to the point where head coach Juwan Howard’s job is in jeopardy.
