I liked JH's sales pitch:

“I just feel that once one recruit commits, it’s going to be rapid-fire … everyone else will fall in. Who’s willing to step in the front line and bet on himself first? I bet on myself first when I stepped in the line and I committed to Michigan. Are you willing to bet on yourself?”

Agreed- quite a bit stronger than the sales pitch from Tommy Izzohan III:

"How do you know the bet-on-yourself fairy isn't some crazy glue sniffer? He sneaks into your house once and that's all it takes. Next thing you know, there's money missing off your dresser and your daughter is knocked up! I've seen it a hundred times."

YUGE! 
 

So damn excited for the Juwan Howard era! This feels like it could be a first domino in a really big class! 
 

Go Blue!

"it doesn’t matter much"

What doesn't matter much?

Are you saying that Howard is only an OK coach so it doesn't matter that 5-stars are coming here because he won't be able to do much with them?

Or are you saying that Beilein is a great coach but a so-so recruiter compared to Howard who's a so-so coach but a great recruiter so they're basically the same?
