What’s left in recruiting

The hunt for Jalen Wilson as begun, per The Michigan Insider Sam Webb.

"ICYMI, Juwan Howard to Meet with 2019 Denton (Tex.) Guyer forward Jalen Wilson"

Coach Howard is going to meet with Jalen Wilson and attempt to bring him back to the Wolverines where he originally committed.

Jalen is the No. 13 ranked basketball player in the nation for the 2019 class and his skill set is greatly needed at UM following the departure of Ignas Brazdeikis, Jordan Poole, and Charles Matthews.

Should he decide to re-commit to the maize and blue he could see some immediate playing time at SG or at forward. Evan Daniels from 247Sports projected Wilson as a future first-round selection in the NBA and noted his shooting ability and shot mechanics while adding that Jalen could show some improvement by working on “creating space for pull-ups and ball handling.”

If Wilson were to come back to Michigan, Howard would still have one scholarship to offer another prospect or transfer.

Seventh Woods, a Tarheel transfer, was reported to have some interest in Michigan basketball. Woods was the No.1 basketball player from the state of South Carolina in the 2016 class.

Another option would be Tevin Mack who withdrew his name from the NBA draft and announced he would not return to play for Alabama.

Tevin was the 10th ranked small forward from the 2015 class and he was ranked 57th overall.

Next. Michigan basketball should pursue Tevin Mack. dark

Unfortunately, no one is reporting any Franz Wagner news.
