One of Juwan Howard’s favorite mantras, “Embrace the suck,” applies to his Michigan Wolverines now more than ever.
When Michigan began its adjustment to the NCAA Tournament’s Indianapolis bubble this week, things didn’t come easy. Players’ social media posts, namely boxed meals, resembled the infamous Fyre Fest of 2017. Movement around their hotel appears limited, and getting fresh air is even more challenging.
During a Zoom call with reporters on Wednesday, freshman center Hunter Dickinson said he hadn’t been outside since Sunday, semi-joking that he doesn’t “know what the air feels like outside anymore.”
“The NCAA has tried their best, I guess, to do the best they can under these circumstances,” Dickinson said.
