I guess FAU was fortunate to keep him another year. He brought them to a level that exceeded their perceived ceiling by several orders of magnitude. They had put their limited egg supply into the FB basket—May probably played in several HS gyms in IN that were bigger than FAU’s. The Dead Guy is the only other HC they ever had w/ a winning record--believe it or not, he left for greener pastures after 1 year.

I would have rather seen someone other than MI get him. I wonder if IU will come to regret not easing Woodson out & bringing May home.

EDIT: FAU in the 7 seasons before Dusty May: 74-143 with 7 losing seasons.

FAU in 6 seasons with Dusty May: 126-69 with 6 winning seasons, a Final Four, and the program's first 2 NCAA Tournament appearances since 2002.
