Michigan's Mike Smith has decided not to use his "super senior" year and is going to the NBA Draft. Probably more likely to make money playing overseas than in the league, but then again so was Fred Van Vleet or even our own Quinn Cook... heady point guards who can shoot have sneaky ways of making it into the league. But both those examples have a couple of inches on Smith. Regardless, here's hoping he figures it out, because he was a key cog in Michigan's success this year.

FWIW, scuttlebutt on various Michigan fansites, insider message boards, etc., is that it's more likely than not that both Eli Brooks and Chaundee Brown return for their "super senior" years at Michigan. Assuming Isaiah Livers and Franz Wagner go pro (Wagner is likely a late lottery pick, and Livers is a senior, although maybe he wants to rehab his stress fracture in Ann Arbor, who knows), under this scenario Michigan conceivably returns four of its top 7 players from this year's squad (including 3/5 of the starting lineup in the tournament given Livers' injury), and bring in two immediate impact five stars. That would probably be the pre-season pick to win the B1G, and a front court of a sophomore Hunter Dickinson, senior Brandon Johns, and freshmen Caleb Houstan and Moussa Diabate would be a nightmare for any opponent.
