    Yeah, that was a nice pick.

    He could be one of those guys that Gene Keady always used to get, like Steve Scheffler.

    I'd like to see him set a few of those on Craft for Tattoo U.

      Somewhat of a Bielfeldt update:
      There is a guard transferring from Bradley to Illinois so it looks like they are giving up the scholarship they had offered to Max. He could still go there as a preferred walk-on, if that's his dream school but I have to think this puts us in the lead, if we weren't already there.

        I've seen stranger things happen. To me as a parent, its a no-brainer. Free education for the kid, or pay for it?

        I'd like to have him.

          Maybe he could go to OhNo where he could get paid and not get an education.

              I didn't see him shoot much except layups. Not even sure that the jump shot on the fade-out went in. Would be nice to have a big body though.

              I wonder where that Pittsnagel kid is now? There was a big man that could shoot!

                I'm kind of curious to see if any recruits that had committed to schools that have let their coach go (Oklahoma, Arkansas, NC State & maybe Tennessee) are going to look elsewhere. Arkansas has 3 players in ESPN's top 60, including a 6'10" PF at #57. That guy's name is Hunter Mickelson. NC State has a 7 foot center at #83 named Joseph Uchebo.

                Is there any chance of making a late push with these guys? Getting Bielfeldt would still probably be a good addition but these guys might have more impact.

                          Seems to be some mixed feelings on this one. Illinois sounds like they're gonna have a schollie now. If Michigan overcomes that, pretty impressive.

                              Bielfeldt will have to overcome his granddaddy's influence. It seems that grandpappy is a major contributor to the University of Illinois. That's probably why Illinois magically found a scholly for him.

                              It'd be kind of neat to get the three of them. Bielfeldt, Brundidge and Burke. The "killer bees" ...
