MLive article on Caris LeVert
Nice article on Caris. I am guessing he will be working his ass off to make the most of the opportunity to help lead this team and get to the NBA. http://www.mlive.com/wolverines/index.ssf/2014/07/off-season_overview_c…
[Mod edit: Changed the title. If it's just "Caris LeVert", it's not letting anyone know what's going on and results in a thread where the only comments are about the title. JGB.]
Thank you for linking the article, but you might want to change your thread title to be a bit more informative on the topic before the angry villagers find you.
Too late.
Jeez, everyone from the drinking thread is starting their own threads. Good lord.
Back-to-back outstanding thread titles.
I'm just going by the rules. (mgoblog FAQ)
OP is relatively new though so maybe he didn't see it. I just kind of felt like being a sarcastic ass tonight, really.

Distant cousin of one, Lavert Hill.
Change your title or a bunch of assholes will neg you
That is all.
But seriously, thanks for the link.
that I didn't realize or remember that Feagin ever appeared in a game. I arrived in Aruba the day of the Minn game and flew home the day after the NW game, and that was before I had a smartphone so I was oblivious. Plus I chose going to see the Twilight movie with my wife instead of watching the OSU game (nobody had offered me a free root canal that day) so I didn't watch any of the three games Feagin played. It sure nice that Michigan is back to winning all the time again.
Makes me hungry for some freedom fries.
But Larry Blue played for Iowa and Marquis Maze for Alabama. Counterpoint: Michael Redd did play for OSU.
It can be argued, though, that LeVert’s freshman-to-sophomore improvement was more impressive than that of Stauskas.
The stats provided actually provide a reather compelling case for this, I would say. When you're talking about in-game averages for FGM, 3FGM, made 2-pointers and the like which jump, in most cases, 8% to 12% year-to-year, that is one hell of an improvement on a season really. I wouldn't expect as dramatic an increase this coming season, of course, but it will be fun to watch how LeVert's game as evolved since April despite the injury.
Caris in many ways is the most Beilein recruit...didn't turn 18 until after he arrived on campus, underdeveloped physically but highly skilled, successful high school player (state champ as Sr) but not highly recruited, 40% 3pt shooter, etc. I guess this staff really does like guys with long arms. Having a wingspan 3" more than your height is notable. I don't think I've ever heard of a guy with a 7" differential.
