Michigan just went won 27 games, a Big Ten tournament title and went to a Sweet 16 in Year 1 under Dusty May. Now, what does Year 2 have in store?

Looking at early projections for Michigan basketball's 2025-26 season under head coach Dusty May. Here's who can return, recruiting class and more.

Michigan basketball's season ended with a 78-65 loss to Auburn Friday in the regional semifinal and as media entered the silence of the postgame locker room, the sadness in the air was palpable. The Wolverines' (27-10, 14-6 Big Ten) campaign came to a close one weekend short of San Antonio.

Since 1939, never in the history of the NCAA tournament have rivals Michigan and Michigan State basketball met in March Madness.
