2018 Recruiting Notes

I think there’s going to be a big push to speed up Davison’s recruitment (mostly by Wisconsin) with his upcoming visits (official to Stanford, unofficial to Michigan) ahead of July.

Carmody (July eval period) and Ryan (Elite Camp in August) probably wouldn’t be in line for offers until later.

Well, another problem we may not have to worry about then.

Probably belongs on another thread but any idea of other teams who are showing up this weekend for the camp? See Nojel was at MSU camp with his team last weekend.

Kyle Young’s team will be here, but he’s not playing due to injury.
Justin Smith also expected in.

For the 2018s, Thomas Kithier is expected in and he just grabbed an offer at MSU’s team camp.

Check out this thread/wiki:

Forgot about that thread, knew about the guys you mentioned. Wasn’t sure if anyone new popped up.

I would be surprised if Thomas Kithier isn’t next 2018 offer.

What’s the scouting report on Kithier? I haven’t seen any film on him and he isn’t ranked by any of the 4 main recruiting sites. However, if Izzo wants him, so do I.

6’8", well built, moves pretty well for his size/age. Coach Val just offered to Milwaukee. Bacari is recruiting hard to Detroit.
Thinks he can play a stretch 4. I’d like to see more of his shooting ability though if he’s going to be a 4.

Guessing this is just interest… but another name to watch.

Just read something from the top hundred camp saying 2018 is extremely weak. Quoted one guy as saying it’s the weakest he ever evaluated. Those of you more familiar is that the case you think?

Reminds me of Kyle Kuric.

Can Kithier play the 4 in Michigan’s offense?

Haven’t seen a ton of him, but I think so. He’d be more of a four playing the four than a three or a bigger wing playing the four.

JB loves Kithier. His offer is waiting in hand. I’d be surprised if he doesn’t eventually end up at M.




@umhoops have the Michigan coaches watched Kevin Easley at all? Just curious because he was a name to watch around the June 15th time frame but haven’t heard/seen his name anywhere recently.

Watched him today.
