Schedule

Trey Burke (above against Jordan Hulls) and Tim Hardaway Jr. (below against Victor Oladipo) for the 2011–12 team against Indiana on January 5, 2012

Michigan announced its 14-game non-conference schedule on August 1, 2011.[21] The team began the season in a renovated Crisler Arena: new seats and a high-definition scoreboard were added,[22] but seating capacity was reduced to 12,721 from 13,751 in the previous 10 seasons.[23]

Michigan came in third place in the three-game

Alabama A&M and Bradley on December 17 and 22.[35][36]

Heading into the Big Ten Conference schedule, both of the teams Michigan had lost to were ranked (Duke was 7th and 5th in the AP and Coaches' polls and Virginia was 23rd and 24th).

Penn State as Smotrycz extended his double-double streak to three games.[38][39] On January 2, Burke earned his first Big Ten Conference Player of the Week honor and his third Freshman of the Week honor for his 40 points in Michigan's first two conference games.[40][41] On December 29 against Penn State he posted 13 points, seven assists, five rebounds and no turnovers.[42] On January 1, 2012, he added a career-high 27 points on 8-for-11 shooting with three rebounds and three assists against Minnesota to earn Big Ten Conference Player of the Week the following day.[43]

On January 19, Michigan became the leader in the conference with a 5–2 record,

Indiana and Ohio State teams.[48][49] Michigan lost its final home game of the season to Purdue on February 25 to finish with a 15–1 home record.[50] On March 1, the team defeated Illinois for their first road win in Illinois since 1995.[51] During the game, Michigan's 30th of the season, Trey Burke broke Gary Grant's school freshman assists record, set over the course of 30 games in the 1984–85 season, by pushing his total to 143.[52] The March 4 victory over Penn State clinched a share of the 2011–12 Big Ten Conference season regular season championship.[53]

In the first game of the

Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament.[56] In the semifinal contest, however, Michigan was eliminated by Ohio State for the third year in a row.[57] Michigan entered the 2012 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament seeded fourth, but lost to the thirteenth-seeded Ohio Bobcats 65–60.[58] Burke became Michigan's first Associated Press All-American honoree since Robert Traylor and Louis Bullock in 1998.[59]

Stu Douglass concluded the season as the school's all-time leader in games played, with 136. He surpassed Loy Vaught, who played in 135 games. Novak set the school record in career minutes played with 4,357, surpassing Louis Bullock, who played 4,356 minutes.[60] Burke had a school record-setting freshman season in assists, ending the year with 156.[61]

Roster changes

The team lost senior captains

Detroit and Christian transferred to Florida International.[84]

Following the season, Trey Burke first said he was not inclined to enter the 2012 NBA draft.[85] A few days later, however, the realization that the pool of point guards in the 2012 draft was shallow and Burke's stock was high led to some deliberation for him and his family: "When you have a season as a freshman like he did, the NBA, they like them young," Trey's father, Benji Burke said. "They think their ceiling is higher when they're young. Trey had ... a solid season for a freshman. It's going to be one of the weaker point guard drafts in years."[86] Some observers thought Burke was at his peak in terms of NBA potential.[87] Eventually, he decided to return to play for Michigan for another year.[88]

2012–13 team recruits

The team announced in September 2010 that Glenn Robinson III, son of former first overall NBA draft pick Glenn Robinson, verbally agreed to attend Michigan, making him the first commitment in the school's class of 2012.[89] Canadian wing guard Nik Stauskas gave Michigan its second verbal commitment for the class of 2012 on March 26, 2011.[90] On November 3, Mitch McGary, who was ranked as the number-two prospect in the nation at the time, announced his verbal commitment to Michigan.[91][92][93] Within hours of the commitment, ESPN said that Michigan's ranked as the fifth-best class in the nation.[94] All three signed a National Letter of Intent with the team on November 9.[95][96][97] After several other schools announced their commitments, the McGary's commitment moved Michigan from outside the top 25 to the seventh-best class in the nation, according to ESPN.[98][99] Michael "Spike" Albrecht committed to Michigan on April 6, 2012.[100]
