I did enjoy the freshman then varsity games at old Schmidt; did not enjoy seeing who would flunk out after first semester grades (Frank Pinchback, Roy Thompson, etc.)

Powell is looking at IU, WVU, and Mich State. Mentioned red shirting him and he wants to play. He wasn’t happy with all the transfers coming in.
