Greg Brown Retweets Tweet About Him Coming to Michigan
We can still dream, right?
Sorry, I don't know how to embed tweets, but this is what it looked like.

You're on the Internet. Go to Amazon. Go to Home Depot. Go dang near anywhere online buy whatever you want and have it shipped to your house.

Green is going to make $500,000?! These guys should join the G League.
Yeah, that's a no-brainer.
I have no idea why the G-league is offering that much though. I'm certainly not going to start watching the G-league just because Brown, Todd, and Greene are in it. I couldn't care less about them if they're not on my team.
Turns out offering 500k is much easier than 50+ scouts and GMs taking multiple trips pretty year to Australia. NBA is willing to pay a premium to keep them home.

This might also entice international kids to come over here as well.

Seems more like he was retweeting someone calling him "the best athletic player this year" rather than the Michigan aspect.
better chance juwan hits me up bc he saw my church league numbers this year.
Looks like he just approved of being called the best athlete. Doesn't seem to indicate anything like an intention of going to Michigan.
If the NBA actually wants to grow the G League and put more of those games on TV they will have to do more of this. The top high school players can get paid and not have to put up a charade of going to class. Why lose the top high school players to Europe? Pay them and they will stay home. In the end I think most college coaches would not mind because they could spend more valuable time recruiting players who actually are interested in playing college ball.
Negotiating tactic or just RT'ing an article that makes him look good because who wouldn't RT glowing articles about yourself as a high schooler? Ain't happening
Greg Brown was 90% going to Texas, but now he's reportedly talking with the NBA G League to possibly do something similar to Jalen Green and Isaiah Todd.
My bet is it's one of those two and it's a less than 1% chance he goes anywhere besides the two options listed above.
G-League offered him $400K. No chance he’s coming to Michigan and probably very little chance he ends up at Texas who was his heavy favorite.
Some of you are sadists. Timmmayyy will eat a bag of lemons if this were to happen.
Lucy agreed to hold the football for me again......
I can see why Beilein hated the barren wasteland that is big-time recruiting. This is the kind of shit you deal with on a day-in, day-out basis.

shaggytexas is having a meltdown because of the tweet saying he was offered $400K to go to the G league.

At this point I'd rather Michigan just focus on the guys they have. Especially with these upper-echelon guys, UM isn't likely to get any of them and it's just needlessly stressful.

Probably going G League if I were to bet

How is everyone forgetting about Moses Moody SG. Who committed to Arkansas over us. I don’t think he has signed yet. Hmm
April 17th, 2020 at 11:16 AM ^
I read about him in one of the left-at-the-altar articles. I'm sure the staff is kicking the tires on that one.
He’s signed. Did it yesterday like Dickinson vs. first day available to sign (wed 4/15).
Looks like it will be Adam Miller or a transfer for the final spot.

For anyone who wants to pay athletes, look at what the G-League is doing. One day after a kid is offered $500K, Brown is offered $400K.
I doubt schools will be willing to pay an all-conference starting QB the same amount of money to a guy who only sees the field in garbage time. They do that, and the bagmen will be lined up outside the stadium with bonus money.
We don’t get nice things. So who cares.
