Mike Boynton Jr. has agreed on a two-year contract to become the next head men’s basketball coach at Michigan, the school announced on Friday.
Boynton had been the interim head coach since Dusty May left the reigning champion Wolverines for the Dallas Mavericks last month.
“I’m grateful to [athletic director] Warde [Manuel] for his confidence and thankful for the opportunity to lead this program,” Boynton said in a statement. “We have built a championship culture and a standard that everyone associated with this program takes great pride in. We have an outstanding group of players, and I’m excited to get to work and continue the success we’ve established together.”
