Rex Hudler Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 QUOTE(RockRaines @ Mar 19, 2008 -> 12:29 PM) He should already see some playing time next season in the Tebow mold. 6-6 running a sub 4.3 is something to behold. He's not God. And he doesn't run a sub 4.3 either. Unless you are talking about the 30-yard dash maybe. Let's not treat him as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I corrected myself to say that it was a 4.3 And he's the best player in the nation, he's going to see playing time, hes a freak. Hows the UM QB position shaping up these days?

Continuing to recruit all the way up until signing day like every other coach out there? Do you know how many of Michigan's players were still getting recruited the night before? Hell, Cal told Sam McGuffie that RB Coach Fred Jackson, who McGuffie loved, was leaving for the NFL, which was a lie. Illinois tried to recruit Michigan commits (Cissoko for sure off the top of my head), but they get a pass because our guy didn't change his mind? Joe Tiller can freakin whine all he wants, but that's a bunch of BS. There is nothing he's done at Michigan that's shady at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont really respect a coach that would call a recruit and tell him he's leaving his job before the coach tells his team. Of course its even funnier that said recruit just went to his biggest rival.

You are greatly exaggerating what happened. Actually, you might not be, but you are making assumptions that may not be correct at all. Neither of us know exactly what happened. My point is, if that is the only thing you have on him, then I'd say you are making a mountain out of a tiny molehill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Hudler Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 palehose, a little update for your boy Ty Zeller. Not that UNC really needs the help, but Mr. Zeller accorded himself quite nicely in the state playoffs. He led Washington to the 3A state title (there isn't much doubt they would have won the 4A crown too, if they played Brownsburg the 4A winner) completely dominating the whole tournament. He set an IHSAA record for points scored in a championship game (any level) with 43 yesterday. Here are his performances beginning with the regional..... Regional - 1st Round Defeated #2 ranked Edgewood scoring 32 points with 20 rebounds Regional Final Defeated #1 Evansville Memorial (my alma mater) scoring 38 points with 16 rebounds Semi-State Defeated #3 Batesville scoring 38 points. Could not find a rebound total, but know it was more than 10 State Championship Defeated #6 Fort Wayne Harding scoring 43 points with 16 rebounds. That is just flat out dominant against the best possible competition in their class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Thanks for the update Rex. What kind of competition is he really playing against? I saw some of his video's and the guys that were guarding him were 6'2 white guys, which left me with a little bit of concern. Scoring 40 and putting up 20 rebounds which he has done several times is a great feat against anyone, and I know he's talented, but I'm just wondering what kind of talent he is playing against.

Indiana Class 3A is good competition, not great. Most people they were the best team in the state regardless of class, however. Memorial, who they beat in the regional has Kyle Kuric which is going to Louisville. But they were not tall. They were 6'3, 6'4, 6'5 at best. Zeller also had a 6'10 or 6'11 teammate so they did tower over some teams. I think the biggest thing to take from it is that his team beat the #1, #2, #3 and #6 teams in the state along the way and he had consistently superior performances. He'll win Indiana Mr. Basketball and play on the All-Star team in the annual series against KY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 He looked solid in the Mickey D's game. He beats his men up the court for easy buckets which will fit in perfectly, and he has some very nice post moves, but he has to put on 20 pounds to have any hope of banging inside.
