Media Day

Yesterday was media day and mgoblue.com has audio of Coach Borseth up as well as quotes from Borseth and many of the returning players:

Michigan Head Coach Kevin Borseth

Opening statement... "Thank you for coming out. It's nice to see friendly faces, faces I've seen in the past, which is good and I think you guys are trying to help out as much as we are trying to build a program as well, we really appreciate that. It's that time again -- basketball season. We have been building up, getting ready for this Friday night and this Saturday when we start practice and we are excited to get the season going. We have five seniors this year, which really bodes well for some sense of continuity. We're excited about that. The seniors are good kids, they are working hard and we are hoping we can make something positive out of the season. If you take a look at our schedule, it's a very difficult schedule. Not only in terms of the teams that we play, but there are two games that we play where the turnaround time with the travel is really difficult. I think that in a 10-day stretch we travel to Duke and USC and we play three other games around that and the three games we play around that are real difficult. I think that is probably the most demanding part for us, not only are we playing good teams but the travel around it as well. We have to find a way to make something positive out of it and win some games; that's probably the biggest thing."

Also coverage from the Detroit Free Press and Detroit News.
