re: UA Basketball Recruiting

There's no publicity stunt here. Michigan was one of JD Davison’s dream schools growing up. That doesn’t mean the Wolverines have much of a chance, however, because they are trailing the other five schools on his list when it comes to securing his commitment.

The other schools consist of Alabama, Auburn, Kansas, LSU and Memphis. I think that it comes down to the two in-state schools, Alabama and Auburn, and LSU, which holds my FutureCast prediction for him.

Michigan has three perimeter commitments already, but the Wolverines would be entirely fine if Davison - on a whim - committed to them. The Wolverines need a true center that can hold down the fort along the interior and a complete home run pick-up in the mold of Davison. Their chances are slim, but at least they made the cut. There is still time in his recruitment, which might be just what Juwan Howard needs in order to make Davison’s childhood dream a reality.
