well let me rephrase that…he had some good players, but no quality/contributional depth!!

I am really excited about this recruiting class. Some people are irate about the lack of star power in the class, but we have to remember that outside of Manny Harris Amaker’s last three classes were garbage. This is a big step up, and gives us some depth and young talent for Beilein to mold. I think we all severely misjudged the rebuilding job that was waiting for JB when he got here.

Anybody know which players Beilein was scouting in Europe?

Maybe the need fpr a point guard isnt as much as we all think it is. Maybe what Beilein has seen in practice of LLP he thinks he has the ability to play the point.

good stuff on Pledger tho! Sounds to me like he has some real good potential! Good size, a real nice shot…and a good defender! Everything else would fall into place!
my concern for next year is how competetive are we going to be without the services of Udoh?? If he leaves its going to require Cronin, and Gibby to play a lot of minutes! Lets all pray that Cronin comes in and is much better than preconceived! He can block shots…im def assuming not as well as Udoh but at least hes used to doing it! I do hope Cronin plays at a lighter wieght than it looks like hes listed at…I would think that if he is indeed 7′ or 7′1″ that a good wieght would be around 245 maybe a little less! And if infact Udoh leaves i would really consider pushing for Still! Ive heard that hes actually not that bad of an offensive player, and would come in at around 6′10″ and he is good on the defensive end as well! He would be a nice transition player! Thank God we have Morgan coming in next fall as well!

Why doesnt Udoh just stay the course with JB and JB will get him into the NBA, then Udoh can buy his family a house in whatever city hes drafted to! Problem solved!
