Esa Ahmad - New Highlights

Love his game, good shooter, decent handle, decent athlete, big frame. Could play the 3 or 4. I am a fan of Seth Towns, but I think ESA is a tier above Towns because of his ability to be a 2 way player.

Dylan - I know there has been talk of a visit in the works, but how serious is the interest from both sides at this point? It would seem that a Towns commitment may close the door on Ahmad. At that point you would have Kam, DJ, Dawkins and Towns that could potentially play the 4 spot.

He plans to visit this month

Ahmad’s game is reminiscent of a less athletic Wilson Chandler

He’s talked about visiting, but a lot of Michigan’s contact has been with his dad, not him – which I found a bit odd. He always speaks highly of Michigan though and U-M has some All-Ohio connections with Trey, Benji, Caris.

Take it for what it’s worth but I believe Benji is pro-UM in recruiting even after Trey went pro. I saw him 3 consecutive days wearing UM gear over Memorial Day Weekend at the Nike midwest showdown in Cincinnati. Doesn’t necessarily mean he influences his all ohio players toward UM, but it certainly doesn’t hurt either.

Dylan, Josh Sharma has been doing a midwest tour (PSU,OSU,ILL), do you know if UM will get one?

I heard that originally that the NMH group was supposed to make it to Michigan, but haven’t confirmed that.

No mention of a UM visit from this article today
