BEVERLY HILLS (MI) -- Here is what's new on UD's two Michigan recruits while we await word that they have reconfirmed their commitments:

-- The Detroit Freep released their Michigan HS “All-State Dream Team” on Sunday and just like the squad selected by The Detroit News, both “Buckets” and Percy Gibson are on it:

-- These are the lineups for the All-Michigan Classic Game to be played this Friday evening in Fashionable Ferndale, courtesy of the organizer, Paul Carmona at Next Generation Sports:

EAST TEAM

Lee Bailey, 6-0, Detroit Country Day
Joe Baker, 6-2, Ferndale
Carlton Brundidge, 6-2, Southfield
Percy Gibson, 6-9, Detroit Southeastern
Dennis Hogan, 6-4, Detroit Frederick Douglass
Brandan Kearney, 6-6, Detroit Southeastern
Marlin Mason, 6-6, Detroit Cass Tech
Justin Moss, 6-7, Romulus
Patrick Onwenu, 6-7, Southfield
Jalen Reynolds, 6-9, Livonia Stevenson
Zedric Sadler, 6-3, Detroit Cody
Marcel Smith, 5-7, Melvindale ABT

WEST TEAM

Dwaun Anderson, 6-4, Suttons Bay
T.J Buchanan, 6-3, Kalamazoo Central
George Goodman, 5-10, Saginaw Buena Vista
LaDontae Henton, 6-6, Lansing Eastern
Ryan Majerle, 6-4, Rockford
A.J. Mathew, 6-3, Ann Arbor Huron
Tommie McCune, 6-7, Saginaw High
Trey McDonald, 6-9, Battle Creek Central
Darius Norman, 6-7, Kalamazoo Central
Patrick Lucas Perry, 6-0, Flint Powers
Walter Pitchford, 6-9, Lansing Summit Christian
Dante Williams, 6-6, Ann Arbor Huron

There is going to be some serious talent on the floor on Friday. And defense, to be kind, will not be a point of emphasis…which is the case with every All-Star Game.

-- Andy Katz has some nice things to say about Archie Miller in his update of the “Coaching Carousel” from ESPN.com:

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/column...ndy&id=6307284

-- Rush the Court provides their end-of-season Conference Report card for the A-10 and UD ends up a semi-surprising 4th overall, but the Flyers are given a grade of C- which is about right:

http://rushthecourt.net/2011/04/08/c...d-atlantic-10/

-- This makes no sense whatsoever: The NCAA (in their infinite wisdom) has banned schools from subscribing to recruiting websites such as Rivals.com:

http://www.ncsasports.org/blog/2011/...ing-to-rivals/

The NCAA’s knuckleheaded logic? The videos of players aren’t available to the general public. Yes, they are if they subscribe to them, just like the colleges have to do in order to see them.

In the end, guess who gets hurt?

The kids, of course.

-- In case you missed it, Arch had a great update piece on Dayton HS basketball legend Dwight “The Blur” Anderson last week:

http://www.daytondailynews.com/dayto...n-1125705.html

How would you like to show up at a 45 and over “Masters” tournament and have the unenviable task of trying to cover “The Blur” on defense?

-- “The Sweet Tweet of the Week” comes to us from former UD Assistant Coach and now ESPN.com recruiting analyst Reggie Rankin on Butler big man Matt Howard:

“Gotta love the heart of Matt Howard. What a special kid we had on an unofficial visit at Dayton.”

That’s it “From the Swamp.”

Swampy: These two recruits certainly have some impressive statistics - scoring and rebounding. We will all be watching for the performances in the All-Michigan Classic game. It looks like some very good talent. Will this game be streamed?

Doubtful that it will be streamed. I will be there and will have a chance to talk to Percy and LaDontae.

It's all on you now....if you can save one of these recruits, there's an 8X10 signed glossy of Boston Rob from Survivor in it for you. Close the deal.
