If they are smart, they should throw everything and the kitchen sink to get Josh Schertz.

Warde Manuel personally packed May's bags and forced him to go t0 the NBA according to the DFBIA

Fans are crazy when this type of stuff happens. A successful head coach that is striking while the iron is hot wants to go to the NBA. We have seen this before.

If they are smart, they should throw everything and the kitchen sink to get Josh Schertz.

So, Mike Boynton.....former coach of Oklahoma St.

They just can't help themselves from trying to be like OSU.

Hilariously and expectedly DFBIA is blaming NIL and the transfer portal for the reason why May is leaving ("fed up with how college sports work now") even though those 2 things are literally the only reason they won this past season.

ESPN’s report lists assistant coach Mike Boynton as a potential internal hire, given his previous head coaching experience at Oklahoma State.

Used to be said that pulling a DT from the South/SEC territory was harder than having a root canal without anesthesia (or somesuch). Yet the Buckeyes have done so each of the last two years. I call it a shift from SEC to B10 supremacy. Keep it up.

I've been saying this since the early 2000s that the SEC gap was in large part not going down south for big athletic DL (or not having success trying). We've changed that in a big way, in large part thanks to LJ Sr. This would be a really big pickup at DT.

Make no mistake, running a college basketball coaching search in June is a disaster. Players will be allowed to transfer away and everyone who's any good has long decided where to play next season. Coaches don't want to leave their programs this time of year.

Damn. Too bad OSU didn't hire such a loyal coach like Dusty May.

Big boom coming today for the potential #1 overall player in the '29 class in WR Austin Miller. That combined with a potential strong '28 class, and a loaded '26 class that we just signed, plus Jamier Brown, alleviates a lot of pressure to add any other top target for this '27 class. Still hope we land Wong though.

I think he also has the challenge of seeing a lot of courses he has never played in competition. He will be more prepared for them next year.

The move puts May in charge of the Mavericks' next generation, which is being crafted around Flagg, the NBA's Rookie of the Year last season after leading Dallas by scoring 21.0 points per game. The move puts Michigan in a sudden state of flux after the Wolverines' dominant run to the NCAA title. Michigan appeared well positioned to repeat, as ESPN's Jeff Borzello ranked Michigan No. 3 in his early Top 25 rankings.

May's departure means that Michigan's players can explore their future options, as under NCAA rules a 15-day transfer window will open five days after a new head coach is hired or publicly announced.

This will give Michigan officials time to promote internally -- assistant coach Mike Boynton brings head coaching experience from Oklahoma State -- or bring in a new coach and still attempt to keep a talented roster in place.

That roster includes Final Four Most Outstanding Player Elliot Cadeau, talented rising sophomore Trey McKenney and a new crop of talented transfers that includes J.P. Estrella, Moustapha Thiam and Jalen Reed.

During Michigan's championship parade in April, athletic director Warde Manuel announced May had agreed to a new deal that would keep him at Michigan for "many years to come." That deal wasn't signed at the time of Manuel's proclamation, and no deal announcement emerged in the subsequent months.

Just sayin': Apparently Dusty May wasn't a real "Michigan Man" after all......

In case anyone is keeping track at home, that's twice that they won* a championship and their head coach peaced the fuck out of there

OK Diebs, use him gently. Get him some court time, and avoid throwing him into the deep end too quickly. this kids sounds like someone to nurture to bring him out of his HS shell, and onto the D1 ranks. will enjoy watching him progress along his path. Diebs is developing an excellent core, along with sophomore Bynum, and hopefully this continues....
