Michigan returns to action today for its exhibition season opener against Concordia University. The Wolverines have one of the youngest teams in the country this season with 12 of 14 roster spots belonging to freshmen or sophomores but expectations are sky high after a trip to the Final Four last season.
Tonight will be a chance for Michigan fans to evaluate Glenn Robinson III, Nik Stauskas, Caris LeVert and Spike Albrecht’s offseason improvement while seeing Derrick Walton, Zak Irvin and Mark Donnal in a Michigan uniform for the first time.
The game will be streamed online by BTN Digital for a fee (find subscription instructions at the bottom of this post) and tip off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. Follow along in the open thread for in-game updates and live discussion.
