Dylan (or anyone), when we do find out how do you think the news will come in? Are there specific twitter accounts etc. that we should be following?

I think @dril on Twitter will have it first. Jk, I think this is such big news that Dylan, Brendan Quinn or Nick Baumgardner would RT the news awfully quick. Probably just need to follow those three on Twitter.

The key is to never fall asleep. Just stay on the board and on Twitter and hit refresh every 5 seconds. Itā€™s the only healthy way to follow this.

Given the six hour time difference between Ann Arbor and Berlin, when we hear something, it will probably be early in the day around here.

gut feeling that Franz will just silently show up in Ann Arbor when summer school starts on 7/3

I asked both he and Mo to let me know. Havenā€™t heard back yet.

Yup, with Summer Semester starting next week, I would think this weekend (or Monday) would be ā€œhigh alertā€ time for a potential pop-in by Franz, if he opts to go the college route.

(Or, with the extended season at Alba, he could take the remainder of the summer off and potentially enroll in the Fall Semesterā€¦ but if heā€™s coming to college, I would put my $$ on him enrolling in the Summer Semester)

Yep I agree.I said the same thing a couple days ago on this same thread.

Does Ant Wright know anything?

This could be something too but it is a paid article. https://twitter.com/AustinFox42/status/1145006190906224640

Seems like pretty much everyone understands the situation:

Michigan feels good about its chances to land Wagner. Heā€™s sent paperwork to Michigan. That doesnā€™t necessarily mean heā€™s coming but it is a good sign and better than not having sent in any paperwork. Until it happens or he announces it, thereā€™s always the possibility that Alba Berlin could offer him more money, he could have a change of heart or there could be some kind of admissions issue or anything else.

I get that everyone wants some kind of update, but Iā€™m not really sure what more there is to say than that.

I think he was just watching the WWC

So true ā€“ knew he would pick up some cheap likes (even claim he had intel) but then can always say it was because of the WWC if it doesnā€™t turn out.

I see this as pretext enough for Dylan to call the Wagner household and ask for a clarifying statement. ā€œIn the last few hours we have seen hints and speculation from various media sources suggesting that Franz is coming to the University of Michigan. Can you provide comment?ā€
