I can trust your assessment, so based on what's returning & incoming (not even counting what freshmen might add), I'd be completely fine with those elements. I wouldn't expect him to have any PG on a regular basis.

Potentially beating us and losing recruits doesn't sound friendly to me at all. Nothing to win and lots to lose IMO. Give me Grambling State and Stonehill College. UNI and Drake have survived just fine not playing us in recent past.
I get that, but the style of play is completely different. Pack line defense and slowest pace to no middle pressure defense and push the page.
And don't use Virginia and Tony Bennett as an example. Fantastic coach but again, different style of play. I would like to have a word about Mariel Shayok.
College basketball players on their 15th year of eligibility showing up for the first day of class.
Top 2027 prospect Marcus Spears Jr. joining Texas this season
Marcus Spears Jr., the No. 1 prospect in the class of 2027, is reclassifying and committing to Texas for the upcoming college basketball season, he told ESPN on Thursday.
A local judge in Ohio has ordered an injunction for colleges in Hamilton County allowing those who graduated college last year and were out of eligibility the ability to play collegiately in 2026-2027. This is only valid for universities within Hamilton County (Cincinnati and Xavier)
Help me make sense of this. So two division 1 teams are allowed to play athletes who have lost their eligibility next year, but nowhere else in the country is allowed.
This stuff needs to be fixed ASAP

Can monster energy big 12 teams stop getting judges to make shady ass rulings over eligibility?
This doesn’t need to be fixed teams need to stop doing blatantly shady **** that won’t hold up
That’s more letting accessory’s to murder keep playing, it just means more lol
Interesting. I would had let the upcoming year play out first before committing a second year to him
I think thread title is just updated each season instead of starting new separate threads.
Really smart from Michigan's side.
Let's you see how the season and recruiting/portal plays out over the next year.
If he kills it, you can extend him.
If he bombs, you fire him.
If he's just ok, you've really got another full year to monitor the situation, or you can fire him
These are the "risks" you can take when you have unlimited money
That's actually a really good move for both sides.
Gives Boynton a little easier job in recruiting and gives him a small financial safety net and Michigan keeps its flexibility if things go hard south. Reliable source from StL told me that Michigan tried REALLY hard to get Josh Schertz in the day between Dusty May telling them he was leaving and it becoming public so if Boynton isn't the guy, they don't have to risk Schertz taking another job next year.
I think he'll do well there, fwiw.
You could’ve done everything you listed without extending him now. This seems so bizarre to me.
100% the right and smart move, allows him to recruit as if he is still there and maintain the future classes but doesn’t lock him down for any real time. If we want to move on we can and then if he does great with the Durant awesome team he has then he gets an extension. Honestly handled perfectly with how late in the season May made his move
