i know why guys dont want to go play in a 2-3 zone, but guys like Nick Richards, Immanuel Quickley, and Jemarl Baker were destined to be lost in the sauce. there are 5* recruits going undrafted from schools that are stocked with them while Michigan sends 51 and lower guys to the league with regularity. the only 2 non-freshmen Cal guys to get drafted in the first round are Terrence Jones and WCS. the only non-FR draftees at Duke over the same span are Nolan Smith and 5* white Americans. if youre still on the roster in your second year, youre cooked. unless youre the Duke senior white hype.

going to KU/Duke/UNC/UK is bad business for at least 25% of those signees. that cant be argued. meanwhile Michigan appears to be good business for just about everyone, and has as many postseason wins as anyone over the last 6-7 years. something is up when theyre lucky to get one top 50 recruit per year. and even when something is not up, say Jordan Tucker at Duke...like wtf are you doing? bad business.
