If Beilein is dismayed by NCAA hypocrisy and recruiting corruption, what will he do when James Harden does this?
Beilein is the past. I want to hear about the future.
Wrong thread.

So I just played the video it took me right to :52 second mark. That step back is not a travel according to NBA rule. He gathered which means he got 0 step then did 2 steps before shooting.
[quote=āumhoops, post:171, topic:5291, full:trueā]Iām just saying that Woj operates in a level of connectedness that is mindblowing for people not in the NBA. Is Beilein supposed to tell his players before he tells the Cavaliers? How long after Beilein tells the Cavaliers does Woj know? 30 seconds?

Yeah, fair enough. I just think itās a crappy way for the players to find out. Perhaps thatās unavoidable.
If part of Beileinās reasoning behind leaving is related to general frustration with the college climate, then I can completely understand it. To not have to worry about your players bolting for the NBA, and about competing with crooks, would be refreshing. Beilein seems like a genuine guy who would be appreciated by NBA players, so heāll hopefully be successful.
Itās dumb, but I really wanted him to win 300 games here. That just seems like a big milestone. He would have done it next year.
Thatās extra steps, not hypocrisy and corruption. Thereās a difference.
Yeah I have absolutely no clue how the enforcement of traveling is similar to a systematic culture of cheating.
I am going to need an NBA style Hard Knocks series out of HBO of Beilein coaching J.R. Smith.
Imagine Cleveland getting the third pick (not super unlikely) and picking RJ Barrett. Beileinās first NBA experience including him, Sexton, and JR would be incredible TV.
Then LeBron comes back after LeBron Jr is drafted Number 1.
Pretty sure JR will be cut.
LOL if Jordan Poole drove him crazyā¦JR Smith might actually cause him emotional trauma
Iām having a hard time maintaining rationality about this - I realize it is stupid of me to wish Beilein lives in Kingās Landing
I think JR is done in Clevelandā¦he pissed off the management team.
Thanks, that was so enlightening.
You guys take yourselves very seriously.
Cool, thanks for the note.
On the actual topic of the thread, Sam implied there is hesitancy towards Billy Donovan specifically because some (I donāt know who the hell has been there that long) in the athletic department remember the Al Horford recruitment and his reputation around those types of recruitments. Seems from the list on 247 that Michigan is looking for the best culture fit instead of the best coach. Some may agree with that method. I personally think thatās how you get Brady Hoke.
