We have heard directly from another Michigan basketball player since a sudden coaching change June 22.
Among those who have already reaffirmed their commitment, incoming graduate transfer Jalen Reed − a wing from LSU − is the first transfer to speak publicly after coach Dusty May's departure to coach the NBA's Dallas Mavericks.
Reed explained the team's emotions after the the move was announced, when he recently sat down with the program's radio play-by-play voice Brian Boesch on an episode of "Defend The Block" podcast.
“I’ve just been really impressed with how much guys are in the gym and how much guys really believe in each other and believe in this team," Reed said. "It was easy for when Dusty left for everybody to kind of split and splinter, but everybody said, ‘When we woke up this morning, before the news broke, we thought we were a championship team – and nothing has really changed but Dusty’s left.'"
U-M named former **** istant coach Mike Boynton Jr. as its interim coach and thus far, 12 of the 14 scholarship players have publicly reaffirmed their status with the program. The lone exceptions are junior point guard L.J. Cason (coming off an ACL injury) and incoming freshman McDonald's All-American Quinn Costello.
