ANN ARBOR Mich. Perhaps the best sign that Michigan's basketball program was moving in the right direction came not last weekend in the NCAA tournament but about a month ago toward the end of the regular season.
The Wolverines had just lost to Penn State a low point during a February stretch that also included a 23 point loss to rival Michigan State. The Wolverines found their character questioned and their prospects for a successful postseason suddenly doubted.
But in a way the angst was a good sign. This Michigan team had raised expectations in Ann Arbor and it wasn't too late for Trey Burke and his teammates to reach them.
Now with a Final Four berth they have.
