It's been on the oldest noms long enough, so I'll give this a review. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 14:16, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here are the issues I found:

"The team will play" fix tense, since the season's over no future/present tense should exist.

"The team was captained by Zack Novak who became one of the forty Academic All-American finalists for the second year in a row and Stu Douglass." add commas after Novak and row

Have Mike Jackson link to the right guy (who i don't think is on the disamb page, so unlinking is okay as well).

"The 2010 class includes" tense

To me, it's a bit odd to see the accolades section bigger that the regular season one. Not sure what can be moved around or trimmed, but it did catch my eye. It's a fairly significant departure from last year's Michigan basketball article, which in terms of structure I think is much better.
- I am not going to lie here. Last year the regular season section was game-by-game and this year it was highlighted games. I am not really going to be putting that much effort into article creation going forward and this article reflects that. For college basketball, which can have as many as 40 games, I do not believe game-by-game is required at GAC. I could be wrong.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:44, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"to make 4 three point shots." four
- done.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:49, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"It was Michigan first" Michigan's

"Breslin Center 1997" since 1997

"The team has had" had

I don't really like the structure of the regular season article. It would be better chronologically, with at least a few non-conference games added in if they were of importance. The way it's written now almost creates a POV.
- I have reorganized it. Let me know if you still want me to add more games.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 20:47, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"After starting the conference schedule with a 1–6 record" comma after record
- fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:55, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Multiple deadlinks exist: see here. Some you can just remove the url, others may need a new source.
- Found new sources for all.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 20:27, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'll put the article on hold then give it another read through once these issues are fixed. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 16:31, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the stuff checks out, but I would like the accolades spread out in the regular season section, with perhaps the end of the season ones moving to after the postseason part. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 14:08, 13 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Looks ok now so will pass. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 01:08, 14 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
