There seems to be some good players down that way. The trouble is that there are too few Boguts and too many Luc Longleys.

It would have been nice to have a healthy Weigh and to see what he could have done over his career. Good for him though in getting paid some big bucks to play in front of of his home country.

What happened is Giacoletti liked to recruit in other countries. This will end with Boylen. The past two recruiting classes the Utes haven't signed a single foreign player. Utah will be recruiting Utah, Michigan, California, and Texas. The most recent recruiting class: Jordan Cyphers: Wichita, Kansas Chris Hines: Houston (I think), Texas Jason Washburn: somewhere in Michigan Jace Tavita: Utah Josh Sharp: Utah |

Nice one. I'd say the Bulls got those rings despite Longley, but you do give a better example with Marks.

After Giacoletti, can you blame mp for it? Boylen looks like a knight in shining armor right about now.

Following up on Funk's post. I believe Giac even made comments about not being able to recruit in the States...I don't have a link or anything, but that is something I seem to remember him saying. As a fan, I remember being very discouraged to hear that.
