Ricky O'Donnell writes about the Wolverines:
"Michigan loses three key pieces from last year’s team that went all the way to the national title game, but also returns enough proven contributors and high-upside pieces to deserve a spot in the preseason rankings. Charles Matthews is back to act as the de facto replacement for Moritz Wagner as Michigan’s new star. Sophomore shooting guard Jordan Poole is expected to be a breakout candidate, while Isaiah Livers and freshman Ignas Brazdeikis will be counted on to fill the void of front court shooting. The Wolverines also return two of their best defensive players: center Jon Teske and point guard Zavier Simpson. Count on John Beilein to find a way."
Still feel like MSU is getting overrated by everyone.
