| Dylan, lol at your avatar. I went to their concert in K-town when Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, and Puddle of Mud were all preforming.

He will be a terrific player for us and will jump into the rotation for next year easily. |

I've seen him play several times, and thought he was just what UA needed. Not an instant impact type guy, but a tough, physical, aggressive player that would be around 4 years

| Negedu is a far more athletic player than Crews. He's a specimen.

| great.
VIA, are we the front-runners for him?
If he does make it here how much will he help us next year?

I actually think Memphis lands him.

| Negedu says he's also considering Georgia Tech...but those in the know don't seem to think that GT is much of a factor. |

| My guess is UT or UM. If it's up to Pastner, he will be a Vol, but, since it's likely not and he was given an unconditional release, he will likely be a Tiger. Cal will get the final call and will probably pull the trigger on him. GT has no shot and Indiana only gets him if he decides to not take any visits and if Pastner has his say so. If he visits us and Pastner gets the call, we will have Duke's replacement. |

| He probably wants to follow Pastner but I think Pastner doesn't want to burn bridges with Arizona and that would definitely hurt his chances to keep a decent relationship there, especially since Negedu was given a full release. Then again, Lute may not care at all if he goes to UM since there isn't a big connection between the two schools other than Pastner right now. |
