Gen-X music got co-opted by little brothers.  I got a whole ton of cassettes actually, from my older siblings.  Rammstein, mix tapes, Nirvana, Rush, Tool, it's like a giant time capsule from the '90s.  Much easier on the ears than Top 40 radio.

I don't think the labor deal will have as much of an effect on potential one-and-dones as what already happened because people saw the lockout coming—a lot of players who could've entered last year's draft decided to stay in school. It should be a loaded draft next year with a lot of underclassmen coming out, and that could affect McGary's decision if he's not a lock for the lottery because of the depth of the class.

Ah, I'm an idiot. And in this case, entirely uninformed—not sure if the one-and-done issue is on the table or not in terms of the negotiations. I tend to wait until the playoffs to really get into the NBA unless the Pistons are good (not so much right now).

I believe that since McGary is a prep school kid - already one year removed from his senior season of high school - even if they went to a "2 and done" system he'd be eligible for the NBA Draft after his freshman season at Michigan.

First of all, mad props to the Michigan coaches and the whole team actually, as well as to Glenn Robinson Jr. They all played a key part in bringing in one of the best basketball recruits of all time into the Michigan family. I hope Tim stays around for another year and the rest of the guys continue to develop and progress like they have been under Beilein's tutelage. If McGary's talents really transfer to the college level, and if Tim sticks around and continues to get better and better, and if Big Dawg Jr. comes in and develops well, etc. etc......Final Four here we come =)

Good decision for Mitch as he wont have to compete for playing time, our offense fits well with his style of play, and he'll be playing under a staff that has proven what they can do for player development . Also, good to see that he'll have close friends playing by his side, so we know that this class will already have great chemistry from the start! Can wait to see him play in maize and blue!!!
