Best player in the Finals seems to be a Soph named Josh Jackson, Detroit Consortium, 6'8", 205 who can shoot. Muskegon has a junior named Davis, 6' 9" (already committed to MSU). Best defensive player I saw.
It is halftime of the Texas game, and I simply cannot understand why a 6'6" wing would not want to play for UM! Man, it seems like a perfect system for kids who can shoot and think.
Yep, I have been thinking for awhile that a wing who can shoot and handle that doesn't go to Duke would be a fool not to go to Michigan. Freakin' Caris Lavert is showing up in Mocks as a 2nd rounder during his Sophomore year. Stauskas a Lotto pick.
And yet guys like Kennard want to talk Ohio St and Kentucky. Kentucky who sends NBA athletes to the NBA. Big deal, send Caris Lavert to the NBA and then tout your NBA development skills.

No shortage of gems at that spot, but yeah. Is Ok. Michigan is going to have great perimeter play. I more worried about recruiting inside.
By the way, Kameron Chatman will be playing in the Jordan Brand Classic. I think this is what used to be the Magic Roundball Classic and the Dapper Dan before that.
Anyway, we'll get a sneak preview of him on April 18th. Still no McDonald's All-Americans since Daniel Horton but we seem to be doing all right without them.

Josh Jackson is the best player in the country in his class and he's been called the best player in the country regardless of class.
I think that when you have the system guys in place and the program is truly rolling - a few years away, when the pipeline is fuller -- then you absolutely go after the top-ten wing recruits. On the inside, you chase them already.
Not that it matters as M has an impossibly easy path to the FF, but he's not going to M. Distant 4th. It's Duke or OSU and everyone says Duke. Oh well.
Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]? Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good.
It's Duke. OSU got by UK but couldn't beat out Coach K. I've definitely come around on him as player -- he can really play. Shame to see him go to Duke.

Michigan could really use a backup wing next year. A 2-3, as opposed to Chatman as a 3-4.
A shame, though. Until Calipari proves he can integrate these players in a program that wins on the floor as much as on the recruiting trail, I've been hoping that Kentucky collects the largest possible collection of them.
Really it's quite the open question. If you go by the rule of thumb that players guaranteed a first-round slot go, then neither McGary or GR3 make the cut.
