Prior to accepting the invite, head coach Juwan Howard offered his feelings after Michigans loss to Rutgers in the Big Ten Tournament.

“Yes, they want to continue to keep playing,” Howard said Thursday. “I want to see them playing, and I want to be out there coaching them in the postseason. We’ll go back home, we’ll talk about what’s the plan for the future and we’ll go from there.”
