In his first season at Michigan, May has the Wolverines (20-5, 12-2 Big Ten) in the hunt for a Big Ten championship and trending toward a top-four seed in the NCAA Tournament. His contract extension was announced roughly two hours before the Wolverines faced Michigan State in a battle for first place in the conference standings.

Michigan and coach Dusty May have agreed to a multi-year contract extension, Wolverines athletic director Warde Manuel announced Friday. The news comes amid a successful first season for May with the No. 12 Wolverines and at a time when Indiana is in the market for a new coach.

With Indiana looking for a new head coach for next season, there's been speculation that first-year Michigan basketball head coach Dusty May could find himself in Bloomington after just one year in Ann Arbor.
