Michigan Basketball Scholarship Chart: A Comprehensive Overview
The landscape of college basketball is ever-evolving, and with updates to how college sports will operate, each basketball team will have 15 scholarships starting in the 2025-26 season. This article aims to provide a structured and informative look at the Michigan basketball scholarship chart, considering the implications of the new 15-roster-spot maximum and other relevant factors.
The New 15-Roster-Spot Maximum
Starting in the 2025-26 season, college basketball teams will operate under a 15-roster-spot maximum. This change affects walk-ons the most. While teams may still carry 1-2 walk-ons, it's crucial to remember that both walk-ons and scholarship players count equally towards the 15-player maximum. Identifying which walk-ons will stay will be essential since they contribute to the roster limit.

Key Questions and Uncertainties
Several questions and uncertainties surround player eligibility and roster composition, which may affect the scholarship chart.
Walk-ons
Finding out which walk-ons are staying will be interesting, since they count toward the 15 player limit.
Ben Humrichous
Ben Humrichous could come back if he wanted to. Brad Underwood has said he wants him back, and Humrichous did not enter the portal that I’m aware of. This means he either is done with college basketball or back at Illinois.
Mihalo Petrovic
I do not know exactly what eligibility the NCAA will give Mihalo Petrovic. He is a 22 year old that has played multiple years of professional basketball. My guess is he will either be a junior or senior.
