Written about him
The NCAA lost its stay on Noland and asked the court to hurry instead
The Indiana Court of Appeals denied the NCAA's emergency motion to stay the Monroe Circuit Court injunction that makes Kenny Noland and dozens of other athletes eligible on October 16, in an order by Judge Elizabeth Tavitas with Judges Bradford, Kenworthy and DeBoer concurring. On October 20 the NCAA filed a verified motion to shorten time and for an expedited briefing schedule in the appeal, NCAA v. Daley, 26A-PL-02703, and the players filed an objection on October 22. No ruling on that motion appears on the docket, and no transfer petition to the Indiana Supreme Court has been filed since the court denied an emergency one on October 1. Michigan plays 10th-ranked Houston in an exhibition at Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids on Sunday, October 25, at 1 p.m. Eastern, and opens against Oakland at Crisler Center on November 2. At media day on October 22, Mike Boynton Jr. said he expected Roddy Gayle Jr. to start with Elliot Cadeau, Trey McKenney, J.P. Estrella and Moustapha Thiam, with Ricky Liburd, Quinn Costello and Oscar Goodman in the next group, and said Joseph Hartman would miss probably a couple of weeks with a shoulder injury.
Liburd started both exhibitions. Noland got the minutes in the close one
Michigan beat Oregon State 98-93 in an exhibition at Crisler Center on October 16, after beating Eastern Michigan 87-62 on October 11. The official box scores list the same five starters both times: Elliot Cadeau, Trey McKenney, Ricky Liburd, J.P. Estrella and Moustapha Thiam. Kenny Noland came off the bench in both games and played 14 and 25 minutes; Liburd played 11 and 15. Against Oregon State, McKenney fouled out, Cadeau finished with four fouls, and eight Michigan players took 185 of the 200 minutes. Joseph Hartman played 18 minutes on October 11 and 7 on October 16. Roddy Gayle Jr. has not played in either exhibition while Michigan waits on an amendment to his court order. The Tenth Circuit heard argument in Wisne v. NCAA on October 13 and did not say when it would rule. Michigan plays Houston in Grand Rapids on October 25 and opens against Oakland on November 2.
Michigan's fifth starter had never played a minute for Michigan
Michigan beat Eastern Michigan 87-62 in an exhibition at Crisler Center on October 11. The official box score lists Elliot Cadeau, Trey McKenney, Ricky Liburd, J.P. Estrella and Moustapha Thiam as starters. Liburd, a sophomore guard who did not appear in a game in 2025-26 and did not play on the August tour, had 2 points and 3 rebounds in 11 minutes. Roddy Gayle Jr. did not play; Mike Boynton Jr. said his injunction order did not address his participation in Summer League and that Michigan hopes for an amendment within days. Kenny Noland, whose Indiana order does carry that wording, played 14 minutes off the bench. Quinn Costello scored 16 in 24 minutes and Joseph Hartman 10 in 18. Michigan plays Oregon State in its second exhibition on October 16.
Michigan Lost Three Starters To Fouls And The Ball Twenty-Seven Times
Michigan opened its European tour with a 96-84 exhibition loss to the Lithuania senior national team at Arena Vilnius on August 23. The Wolverines led 56-44 at halftime and by fourteen early in the third quarter, then were outscored 52-28 after the break. Michigan committed 27 turnovers and 28 fouls. Trey McKenney, Elliot Cadeau and J.P. Estrella each committed a fifth personal foul, left the floor at it and did not return, all three inside the last eight minutes. Quinn Costello led Michigan with 17 points on five three-pointers off the bench in 27:45, second on the team in minutes. Joseph Hartman played 20:58 with five assists and finished the game at point guard. Michigan's bench played 105:10 to the starters' 94:50. Azuolas Tubelis, who played three seasons at Arizona, scored 31 points on 12-of-15 shooting for Lithuania. Michigan plays the Lithuania B Team on August 24 in Utena and Mega SUPERBET on August 27 in Dubrovnik.
