So Michigan Basketball could have two FIVESTAR prospects this year? Wow God Bless you Belien. If Burke and Hardaway stay two more years along with McGary.....do I dare say Final Four?

It will be interesting to see how Belein uses the two of them, and how much time they share the floor together.  They are both big, athletic wing players who seem like they have similar types of games, and they essentially play the same position.  And both have a scorer's mentality (at least GRIII does in high school) and seem to be volume shooters.  Hopefully Belein can keep everyone happy and playing within the offense.

This is not a knock on either guy, and after the last decade or so, I think this is a good problem to have, the "too much talent, who sees the floor?" problem.  I'm just curious to see what will happen with two very talented, similar players whose main strength is scoring and who play the same position.

According to their offer list on rivals, neither Burke or GR III were offered by a top 25 program when they committed to Michigan. GR III is going to end up a 5-star prospect and Burke is playing like a 5-star player. Nice finds for Beilein.

Let's see what happens this year. Next year will be exciting also likely. However, I think our floor is a 3 this year if we take care of business these next four winnable games.
