Nice offer list and looks fluid on tape. Would be very happy to have him on board in the 2020 class.

Though that makes me fear that Collins doesn’t expect to get any more of the guys he extended offers to early at lead guard — Steward, Leal, etc.

The fear is likely very real in this case.

I hope Steward is still a possibility, but I think your hypothesis is more realistic. The hopeful side of me who has never seen this kid play only sees a three-star rating. I wonder if he's an end-of-the-bench/red-shirt guy who can develop while the staff pursues a stud.

Davis would be the 11th scholarship and third lead guard (Buie and Greer) on the 20-21 roster with only Gaines potentially leaving after the season. So that's not a whole lot of room to work with over a two year period - one scholarship in one of the years and maybe two in another.

DJ has been recruited by NU for years but might be heading to a blue blood after this weekend

NU would love to have him on board

I would have to imagine there is no room for leal at a wing position while DJ is enough of a bal handler to bring in with Bam to have Greer, Buie, Bam, DJ at the 1 & 2

wing would be gaines, kopp, nance, chase, beran, (Bam) - DJ can still fit in with his ball handling but leal probably is one guy too many on the wing

Assuming only two of those three schollies are used, I hope one is a lead guard and one is 6-9+.

Any chance we can get in on Zeb Jackson now that Belein exited Michigan? That kid is a true lead guard and relatively close to home playing ball in the Toledo area (Maumee Country Day).

Where does Audige fit in with all that?

Wow, he scored 46 points and hit a game-winner?


I hope there is still some way he ends up in purple. He looks like the type of four-year starting talent that the Cats need.
