Obviously not hanging out lol, but he passes through there anyway to get to Indy. EYBL actually starts Friday so why not stop along the route? No harm even if it is a long shot
Just mean that I would expect him to be other places between yesterday and Friday evening.
Iād almost expect more attrition at the 5 if were really pursuing this guy seriously. Unless Donnal isnāt getting his redshirt year back, would we really roll into '17 with Donnal, Davis, Teske, Wilson, and Williams? Same can be said for Antetokounmpo.
I donāt see donnall getting that year if we land the guys we want. Last resort kinda. But kostas is a four/ with the ability to play the three so I donāt see that affecting it.
I think Williams is the kind of guy you look at even if half your roster already consists of centers ā heās just such a talent upgrade. But itās entirely possible that there could also be more attrition at the 5, as you suggest.
Regarding Kostas, my understanding is that heās not a 5 ā while I have yet to see the staff put a 6-foot-10 guy at any other position, I assume he simply wouldnāt come to play center.

Its certainly encouraging to see Beilein taking Izzo on in all of these recruitments; just hope we have a serious shot. Losing Langford still hurts and I want some retribution.

Update with Brian Bowen
āUCLA, Kentucky, Michigan State, Michigan, Kansas, Villanova, Maryland, Texas and those are pretty much the schools that have been recruiting me hard,ā he said.
Watching Cain right now vs. Las Vegas Prospectsā¦
He has been playing the ā5ā for a majority of the time Iāve been watching. The Family has gone small and is pressuring LVP to get turnovers after digging themselves a hole. Cain just hit a 3 and missed an alley-ooo earlier. Heād be perfect for the top of the 1-3-1 with his length and athleticism. He is really energetic on the bench and seems to really want to win (think opposite of the Houston Rockets).
I do not see anyone from the UM staff at the game but the camera is a little blurry. Theyāll occasionally zoom in on the coaches but I havenāt seen them do that yet.
Iām here - Cain was in foul trouble early on, played very limited minutes (probably 10-12 all game). Never got a rhtyhm going. Cain didnāt play the 5, but he did play off ball the majority of the time. Family had a gutsy performance, down 25 at 1 point, came back and took the lead with about 1 minute to go. Made youthful mistakes during the last 30 secs that cost them the gain.
Greg Elliott was extremely impressive today. Not a guard that really handles the ball, but just does all the little things to win. Crashes the glass, knocks down open shots, finishes at the rime, solid perimeter D. Heās going to pick up more offers, no doubt about it.
Hey Matt, any word on who the staff has been watching. No mention of any Mich coaches yet but assume they are there.

Very quiet half for Kyle Young. 0-3 from the field, 2rebs, 2asst
Heās terrible. We donāt want him. Iām absolutely being facetious. Thanks for the reports, Matt, please keep them coming!
It happens, just an off game from Young. Iām still a big fan of his game

Cain with a pretty nice first half. Finished with 8 pts, 2rebs, 1 asst. 3-6 from the field.
Beilein watching Family vs BABC
Cain finished with 10 pts on 4-10 shooting. Struggling with his 3 ball but automatic from midrange
Cain played limited mins - have no idea why as team clearly struggles without him
It seems Poole, Young and Cain played pretty poorly today. Not too concerned quite yet but hopefully they pick up their level of play soon. I hope we have backup plans for both Cain and Young because watching them play against good competition so far is a little uninspiring.
