ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Michigan fans went to a concert Friday night and a press release broke out.
DJ Khaled and former Wolverines hoops star Jalen Rose emceed a 90-minute show at Crisler Center that culminated in the debut of the basketball program’s new Jordan brand uniforms.
The jerseys -- modeled by Michigan’s players and unveiled by dropping a massive maize banner emblazoned with the words “Forged for greatness” -- drew comparisons to the simple, tightly trimmed uniforms worn by Rose’s teams in the early 1990s. The current team even wore black socks while showing off the new look as a nod to their Fab Five forebears.
