Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NCAA. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Michigan fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.

In this edition of SB Nation Reacts, we’re asking if Dusty May is the best Michigan men’s basketball coach of all-time. Vote below.

Please take our survey

May and Michigan just went 37-3, winning the National Championship over UConn. May’s record at Michigan is 64-13 through two seasons. John Beilein won 278 games at Michigan and had two national title appearances, while Steve Fisher had one national title win in 1989 and three title appearances overall.

It’s fair to say that May is already as good as Fisher, with expectations for more title appearances to come. Does that already make May the best Michigan hoops coach of all-time? The poll results should be interesting.
