Michigan basketball moved to 1-0 under new head coach Juwan Howard in a 79-71 win over Appalachian State on Tuesday night, but for a team that was up 30 points in the second half, that certainly was not a comfortable win.
“When we went on the run (in the first half), we made some outside shots when they were playing the zone,” Howard said after the game. “In the second half, the shots that were open, just happened they didn’t go in when they were in the zone.
“Still gotta stay the course. They’re gonna give you open shots, you just gotta be patient.
