Has there been any news on him? Is he going to sign or go to college? I mean, with the draft class not looking like one of the better ones so far (even though, i say next year will really be the judge of that) don't you think Pupura would be a bit more urgent with the situation?

The latest report from the Cleveland Plain Dealer (http://www.cleveland.com/news/plaindealer/index.ssf?/base/cuyahoga/1184834390148930.xml&coll=2) is that he is still in negotiations. 

The draft won't be able to be fully evaluated until 2012.  It takes 5 years to know how good or bad a draft was.  Right now, it looks like this one does have a lot of catching up to do however.

When you miss out on picks in rounds 1 and 2 AND your 3rd and 4th rounders are not signed prior to Aug 1, I imagine it will almost always start out slow.
