episode 229: WTKA Roundtable 5/2/2019: We Didn't Want Him Anyway
Things discussed:
- Lester Quinones: Visit canceled by Michigan because of "structural problems."
- Justin Pierce: Maybe wasn't the best fit since he's a three not a two.
- Cumberland: Familiar to Saddi from when Michigan recruited him.
- Bajema probably needs a year or so to grow
- All in on Bones, but Kansas now involved, prep school because tragedy set him back academically
- Can Eli Brooks play? Stats defend his defense, Beilein defends his defense perhaps too much.
- Livers-X-Teske ppp = Matthews-X-Teske ppp, so Livers is probably really good.
- There was a point last year that Eli's coaches had to tell him "shoot the basketball!"
- DeJulius: Sam wanted him on the court early so he'd pass Brooks; Beilein saw something to not do that.
- Abdur-Rahim: Don't have to worry about bag because dad, serious academic kid but family connection to UGA
- Iggy: 5% chance of returning? Left the door open but it's unlikely
- Trial 2 for NCAA payments: Dawkins telling them how it really works: money is often redirected from the players
- Long discussion of how this will unfold
