I wonder a little bit why he was offered if JB was so reluctant on Hardaway? He waited forever to offer Hardaway when Zeigler and Prather are faaaarrrrrr less interested in Michigan than Kearney and Brundidge? I don’t get it. They are hands down better players than PLP and we don’t need a 5′11 player when JB proved it couldn’t work with Grady in his system.

Brick – We dont necessarily view red-shirt as a bad thing…we just know Jordan and don’t expect that at all. You can guarantee no one (family or UM staff) will be pushing him to go when he is not ready! Thanks to all for your thoughts, prayers, and good wishes!

GO BLUE!

p.s. I type this while he is still in surgery and will post an update when he is out!

It’d be one thing if CB and BK weren’t high on Michigan or kind of up in the air, but they both probably have Michigan as their leaders right now. At that point it becomes which recruit do you like/want the most? PLP most definitely would be #3 on any list that includes BK and CB (as justified by their rankings as well). It’s not often Michigan has 2 top 50 type players as Michigan leans. Beilein has gotta take advantage of that and land one of them!

PLP played very very well down the stretch in HS ball FWIW and reportedly has played well on the AAU circuit although he’s played more locally. It would be very interesting who Michigan would take a 2011 commitment from and who they wouldn’t.

Have you seen them all play? CB is a much better scorer and playmaker. And Kearney is an elite level prospect with tremendous size and ability. We will only have 2 scholarships available for that class. If PLP committed then we would not be able to get CB or BK and that would be a real shame.

My opiion stands as stated above, although I am limited to what I read for information. It certainly sounds like an offer to me. There are a lot of ways he could differ from Grady and also I think it was Grady who decided not to stay, not Beilein wanting to get rid of him. Thanks Dylan for re-posting the article.
