U of M Basketball Recruiting Discussion

[Dr. Strangelove]

He seems to possess the intelligence of your typical Michigan fan. Give him a chance. He could be legit

[Mackenzie]

Probably in the "slightly more than rumor" category, but heard that Austin Hatch is considering moving to California for his last year of HS. Not sure this would make any difference for M going forward.

I'd be shocked if he didn't go to Michigan. Whether he's able to play basketball or not is a different deal.

@dbojrab11 IU fans are just jealous of the University of Michigan cause you guys realize that we are better in EVERY way. That's all

Yeah, he's not going anywhere but A2.

[*JD*]

Tomorrow is June 15th. That's the self-designated day that Beilein can offer Juniors-to-be. Expect offers to Luke Kennard (#30 ESPN) and Diamond Stone (#4). Maybe to Hyron Edwards too, although his ranking has dropped from the top 10 to 53 on ESPN.

Stephen Zimmerman (#7 ESPN) still hasn't made a visit to A2 so no offer for him yet.

[The Oracle]

They better hold off on Edwards. He seems like one that would drop quick and there's a lot better options out there.

Potential Wolverine going up against a potential Piston. It looks like Iggy is only going at about 60% but it's still pretty fun to watch.

Luke Kennard is the first of the 2015 class to be offered.

Well, I tweeted a question to Zimmerman about if he had any plans to visit A2. I got a reply from him saying to ask his mom. I thought that might be the end of it but then his mom sent me this:

@JDSportsTweets @BIGG_ZIMM we would love to visit as many schools as we can but right now we're focused on development and getting better!

maybe just JD.

She sent me another reply saying she had to recharge her cell phone 3 times yesterday. I guess a shit-ton of coaches & reporters were calling.

Having this "Sports only" twitter feed has been fun. I've had some replies from sports reporters (one just used one of my lines in his column) and a few replies and retweets from athletes.
