Pre-Game

Well Wolverine Basketball Fans, this is the night we have been waiting for. Tonight Michigan Men's basketball team takes on Michigan Tech. After a decisive victory in a preseason game against Saginaw Valley State, which was looking pretty rough until about the second half when the Beileins offense decided to get into full swing. The WOLV crew and I have been attending many practices and we have had time to talk to Beilein and it is evident from his enthusiasm and energy that this will be an exciting season. Lets see what everybody thinks of who will have the most impact on the team this year? My prediction is along with Manny Harris having a pivotal role in the offense and the pressure put on Deshawn Sims to be strong junior leader, I say if the Wolverines are going to have a breakout season, the pressure is on Junior center Zach Gibson. In practice it appears that he has a lot more confidence in his inside game and he is not afraid to take it hard to the rack. I look at him to have a big season and with the help of freshman center Ben Cronin on the defensive end, the wolverines could have great low post game. The team takes on Michigan Tech tonight, my prediction is that they get off to a quick start and go up big early. Michigan Tech may creep back in the game when Beilein decides to put in the second string, but I look forward to a dominating performance by Michigan,

Go Blue,
Sean
