Great article.

Love his confidence.

Iggy might go down as G.O.D.

ā€œI feel like a lot of people doubt themselves coming into college, a lot of freshmen don’t feel like they have the respect of older players and stuff,ā€ Brazdeikis said. ā€œI respect the elderly players on the team, the veterans, but I feel like they should respect me the same way. I came here to prove that.ā€

If he desires equal respect then I’m not sure there’s a better place to go than a John Beilein picked team. I don’t think I’ve ever felt a lack of trust or respect from anyone towards anyone that Beilein has recruited. Hell, the PG’s never stopped passing the ball off of PnR’s to Doyle.

Haven’t been this excited for a Beilein freshman since I’ve been a fan in my (rather young) lifetime.

I’ve seen Iggy live when he was playing in the EYBL for CIA Bounce. The kid is the truth. 5 star talent. Should make an immediate impact. I think he’s the most instant impact ready freshman Michigan has had in Beilein era alongside Burke.
