Every other is ovah! Terrance Williams II puts it back, Eli Brooks gets it back, and Michigan is going back to the Sweet Sixteen after knocking off #3 Tennessee!

And because you can’t have one without the other.

AND THEY BROKE THE CURSE!!!!

We won b/c of Hunter and Eli, absolutely and for sure with 50 points

But we really won b/c of Frankie and TW. They were incredible. Great energy on both ends. 10 big points. They are going to be great next couple years.

My school in Ohio is doing a homeroom NCAA bracket contest and my students picked the teams for me.  When we got to Michigan/Tennessee several vocal students convinced the rest of the class to pick Michigan to win.  I was hopeful, and so happy to see they won.  Those kids earned the class some extra recess on Monday.

I think it was more the timing of Williams coming in. UT had gone small and Diabate was having a hard time on both ends due to that. Juwan finally went small by subbing Williams, and that immediately lead to good things happening.

Otherwise, Diabate had a pretty decent game. Some bad fumbles and missed layups, but pretty good defensively, especially from the weak side which we really haven't seem much. Hit some big buckets too
