Yahoo Autos Michigan names Brandon Naurato permanent head coach
Michigan hockey needed someone to come in and save the season after former coach Mel Pearson was let go following the 2022 season.
The Wolverines hired former Michigan hockey player Brandon Naurato on an interim basis to fill the void for the 2023 season. Not only did the season go well for the Wolverines, but Naurato also led the maize and blue back to the Frozen Four where they will take on Quinnipiac.
On Friday, Michigan announced Naurato would lose the interim tag and become head coach. The specifics haven’t been confirmed, but it will be a five-year deal.
