Dusty May must be feeling good about his team’s chances of advancing to the national title game.
Michigan was scheduled to face Arizona on Saturday in the Final Four at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Ind. The venue also hosted the UConn-Illinois Final Four game earlier in the day on Saturday.
During the first half of the UConn-Illinois showdown, the Michigan head coach May was spotted in the courtside seats. May was apparently doing some scouting.

Of course, May has a much more pressing matter to deal with first. He has to make sure that his team actually beats the opponent in front of them right now (Arizona) before looking ahead to the winner of the UConn-Illinois game.
Arizona will be no cakewalk for Michigan either. They have been the best team in college basketball for virtually the entire year, posting a 36-2 record, winning the Big 12 Tournament, and taking all of their games in the NCAA Tournament thus far by double digits.
There is an argument that there is not much left for May to do with Arizona on the day-of since the gameplan has already presumably been formulated. But between this and some of the other rumors we have heard in recent days, some might say that May’s mind is wandering a little bit right now.
