- Lacy: ‘Jury still out’ on Beilein’s Recruiting in Michigan
It’s make or break time soon to see whether or not Beilein can recruit the state. Perception becomes reality. “If Beilein goes out of the state again and misses out on players — not only in Detroit, but Saginaw, Flint and elsewhere — then something is wrong,” Washington said. “If that happens, he’ll have to go back to West Virginia. And it will be the same attitude (the PSL) took toward (former U-M coach Brian) Ellerbe.” - Lacy: U-M’s Beilein: ‘Imagine how good this is going to be’
Question and answer session with Beilein. At least he is optimistic, but talk is cheap. - Joe Alexander available for NBA Draft
First NBA player Beilein has recruited? - A new breed of athletic director
Works long hours unless he is sailing. - The Tigers finally won a game
Not going 0-162. - William Wesley on the Air
Most powerful man on basketball on the radio.


Does it hurt Lacy’s credibility when the very first sentence of his article starts talking about “incoming recruit DeShawn Sims,” and the Beilein hiring. Sims was not an incoming recruit when Beilein was hired. Does he mean Manny? Does this guy have a clue?
Please, someone help me, because I grade college freshmen’s papers all the time and if the first sentence of their paper is factually incorrect, I take a very dim view of the paper and they tend to get a bad grade! I certainly have little reason to trust other “facts” they may present later in the paper.
Good catch! I thought maybe you could read it as “incoming recruit” to Beilein’s system/team, but you can’t really do that. You are right….It does make you wonder about other “facts” in the article being true or not.
Guys Lacy just sent me an email, he’s getting the “incoming recruit” part of the article fixed. An editor or someone put it in by accident I guess. Someone must have got confused because the article is about recruiting put Peedi wasn’t a recruit.
excellent point
Did you contact Lacy about the error or did he contact you?
He emailed me about it.
