UMHoops: Top 25 players in the B1G
UMHoops is doing a run down of the top 25 men's basketball players in the B1G. They started with 21-25 with Zak Irvin appearing at 22.

In my opion UMHoops has been killing it with their content lately and I'm surprised I haven't seen more reference to it on the board - football season disclaimers accounted for. See their 5 part interview with Josh Bartelstein (2012/2013 senior captain) for some nice insider perspectives on the team's season. If you've only time for one, I highly recommend the segment focusing on Mitch McGary. Here's the first:

MOD EDIT: Tried to fix the formatting thing by shortening the links and changing a few other things. Much fail on my part there. Sorry about that. If anyone figures it out, feel free to enact the change. - LSA

pretty cool, but basketball is on the back burner for me. At the moment Michigan Football,Lions,and Tigers are all the exist in my world

I think most people that frequent this site probably frequent that site as well which is probably why you don't see much posted about it here.

I hope that's the case as that means they are getting the page hits they deserve.
Edit: And comment layout f'ed up. HEY MODS, WTF?

that this list (and last year's equivalent) is a collaboration between UMHoops and InsideTheHall (Indiana B-Ball blog). No need to divert traffic there necessarily. But they do a comparable job to UMHoops for Indiana Basketball. So this list should be relatively less biased than a Michigan only blog.

Top 5....hmmm.
Mitch McGary, GR3, Aaron Craft, that Michigan State guy....hmm. Everyone else graduated, can't think of a 5th

But I'd say that looks about right, in no order
Mitch McGary
GRIII
Aaron Craft
Adreian Payne
Gary Harris
Do we think Nik will make the top 25?

If anyone is interested in how Wolverines fared last year on the same list:
2) Trey Burke
9) Tim Hardaway, Jr.
21) Glenn Robinson III
25) Mitch McGary
I think that's everyone - working off my old notes here.

Excited about Irvin this year.
As others have noted, most people here check out UMHoops as well (I do), so I usually don't usually see the need for cross-pollination.
