Air Force head coach Dave Pilipovich has some history with Michigan.

He assisted Tommy Amaker from 2005 to 2007. When John Beilein took over, he stuck around Ann Arbor for three weeks to help the new head coach transition into the program.

Pilipovich spoke about the experience after his team dropped a 71-50 decision Saturday at Crisler Center.
