Michael Chandler

[BandAid]

Welcome to the family, big guy!

I believe it was ESPN that ranked the X recruiting class at number 10 after this commit. Obviously X will drop back if he is 2012 but the 2012 class will be that much better.

Shouldn't matter to X which class he is part of as the team has plenty of depth next year at all positions. Frease might be the only true Center (without Chandler) but the talent and depth at PF is more than enough for the team to thrive without Chandler next season.

I have heard he will stay in '11 if he can qualify, which, everyone knows, isn't terribly likely. He'd be a HUGE addition for next year if they can get it done, but otherwise, he steps right in for Kenny in '12-'13.

I like the idea that recruits are publicly stating their desire to help us get to a Final 4. That's what happens when you are in 3 straight Sweet 16's.

I can't wait to get there.

Chandler was seated next to Jalen Reynolds on ther bench Saturday night and it appears the big fella from Detroit got his first XU assist! Congrats Jalen!!!

Welcome to Xavier Nation, Michael!

Wow, no doubt. I thought DSR might happen, but didn't think Chandler would too. That's major.

I can see him going to the NBA as a result of the committment to XU, if he works hard and buys in to the Xavier Way.

Yeah, he never would have made the NBA had he stayed with UL or decided on UK or West Virginia.

Come on folks, I know the "Xavier Way" is a big deal, but let's not lose sight of reality. Michael Chandler will end up in the NBA via Xavier or John Carroll. He is a beast! Now, let's hope and pray that a year from now we just got done watching him at Musketeer Madness (maybe, God forbid, in front of a packed house this time) and he isn't in a prep school somewhere for an extra year!

Yeah, that's not what I said.
