Edit: oops missed the NBA prospects part
I don't know... Beilein
I don't know... Beilein compared Nik to John Havlicek, now that is very lofty territory, we can only hope. But Nik is looking pretty sweet so far.
Then you've gut guys like me who've compared McGary to Dave Cowens, so I guess M is the '70 Celtics revisited. I guess that makes Trey Burke the next Jo Jo White,
I'm assuming this means if
I'm assuming this means if they were to leave after this season, no? From what i've seen from Nik, he can be a solid role player on an NBA team, but after 4 years in college. He's going to hit plenty of daggers at Michigan
For sure. The college
For sure. The college strength and conditioning program will work wonders for Nik, if he's willing to put in the work, and I've no reason to think he won't. 3 years minimum for Nik, with 4 being the more likely scenario. But with the way he can shoot the ball, and the advances in S&C you just never know.
I heard that Fred Jackson
I heard that Fred Jackson compared Stauskas to Larry Bird, except faster.

I'm finding it hard to beieve
I'm finding it hard to beieve that there are 12 freshmen in the country better than GR3.
903 wins most in college football
All Hype
This is all based on preseason hype. So little real game footage for him to be ranking these guys at this point. We'll see by the end of the year where GRIII and McGary rank.
Keep the change ya filthy animal.

This will sound bad but it's
This will sound bad but it's actually a good thing. I think there is little to no chance GRIII goes pro after his freshman year. The NBA is 1on1 oriented. GRIIIs handle isn't NBA ready and his lateral quickness needs work. His father will know as well as anyone he isn't ready.
Mitch will be around for multiple seasons as well.
I agree. I think Burke is
I agree. I think Burke is the only early entry after this season.
and THJ as well
stock rarely change from JR to SR year so might as well go pro and earn money 1 year earlier so you can get to the 2nd contract quicker.
I think...
Burke will go for sure and I think there is a solid chance Hardaway goes as well. He's (Hardaway) going to have a monster year - and his draft status likely won't get higher by returning.
I think Robinson goes after next year and McGary goes after his junior year.
