Horne “toasted Michigan for 19 points on 3 of 5 three-point shooting in a win this year. He’s made 249 career triples between Illinois State and Arizona State in his career,” The Wolverine’s Chris Balas wrote.

Quote Of The Day
“I was a fan for sure. My cousin played at Ohio State, but I was never really a huge, diehard Ohio State fan. I would say I was more of a Big Ten fan. Being from Ohio, I feel like there’s a lot of Ohio State fans there but I’m cool with all my people back home having to root for Michigan. The real ones will. I guess we’ll see who doesn’t.”
