You've Got Mail: German-Born Hoopster Wagner Recalls Recruiting Tale

By Brad Rudner

Never before had one e-mail caused Moritz Wagner so much stress.

He doesn't remember the subject line, but as soon as he saw the content and who it was from, he wished he would have opened his junk folder sooner. Incredibly, this message sat there for two weeks, destined for an eventual deletion.

The sender was John Beilein.

Not letting any more time pass, Wagner grabbed his phone and texted Beilein. It wasn't long before the two actually spoke. Luckily for Wagner, it wasn't too late.
