In pure speculation, Karasinski could look at a place like Michigan to spend his final season, considering it’s close to home. Or even Michigan State if he looks at Power Four schools, but that’s a story for a different day.

Both teams are in the Sweet 16 this week. Michigan head coach Dusty May, despite the Wolverines winning by 21 and 23 in their first two games, says they can be better.

“We’ve tried to do a good job of not playing to other people’s expectations and not playing a seed line,” May said. “Just go out and play ball one possession at a time. Also, I think Howard played really well. We were up 11 with 30 seconds to go in the half, and we completely botched our last 35 seconds. Poor coaching, poor decisions, whatever the case. That gave them life.

“I don’t know how many we ended up winning by now, but to beat that Howard team since February 1st is one of the best shooting teams in the country, they found their stride. It’s tough because some nights the ball goes in, some nights they don’t. I think our ability to make open shots tonight was the biggest difference in the discrepancy in score.”
