Two ’09 guards throwing it down

quite often on the AAU circuit --

6-4 Purdue commitment D.J. Byrd from Crawfordsville, Ind., and 6-3 Matt
Vogrich from Lake Forest, Ill., who is now getting Big Ten interest.

Vogrich is going to Michigan, where John Beilein is bringing in a bunch of white players.

i've noticed that, GLS. good for Beilein, good for the white players in the area (Michigan and Minnesota), and good for the fans.

Michigan basketball has stunk it up for so long with a bunch of bums, it's about time they brought in some guys who could play.

I like Vogrich a lot, he's Beilein's best recruit to Ann Arbor thus far.

I don't think any white kids from Michigan will go to U-M if they have the option of MSU, given the winning tradition and success of Drew Neitzel ... actually, that goes for any kids. U-M's star freshman last year, Manny Harris, wanted to go to MSU, but it was first-come, first-serve with two offers out for three wings, and Durrell Summers and Chris Allen took them.

U-M was a distant third behind MSU (the winner) and Kentucky for Russell Byrd, a top 50 type shooter from Ft. Wayne in the 2010 class.
