| I wonder if Mo was any help, and what this says about confidence in Juwan's coaching potential. | |

| My sense was that both Mo and Mama Wagner were strongly encouraging the decision to come to Michigan. I think this is huge- he has to prove it but from what I can determine he should be a significant boost at a position of dire need- i.e. shooting and that he is much further along in his game than Mo was at a similar age.
An added bonus is that with the NCAA going to the international 3 point line this season, Franz is already accustomed to it. | |

You are 100% correct about UM needing shooters. I just don't see that Franz's game is further along than Mo's even given his ProB experience. I'd say they are probably about the same. Remember Mo also played for Alba Berlin although he didn't win best the league's best player award like Franz did so there is that. _________________ Sometimes people standing on third base think they hit a triple, but they didn't - Jim Harbaugh
