MBB: 5 Star Guard Jaden Springer commits to Tennessee

Michigan was in the final 3 along with Memphis but this is no surprise as every crystal ball predicted him to Tennessee. He's a top 20 player and now gives Tennessee a recruiting class of 2 5 stars and another top 40 player.

Michigan is now waiting on top 50 SG/SF Moses Moody, top 40 C Hunter Dickinson and top 30 C Mark Williams to commit in the coming weeks.

Williams is committing in 9 days an widely expected to go to Duke.

Dickinson is down to Duke, Michigan, ND and FSU. There's no date for his announcement but experts think he is going to commit after Williams does since the thought is he doesn't want to go to the same school as another top 40 C in his class. He has said he wants to commit before his HS season starts. There's no definitive feel on who leads but Michigan is the common thought.

Moody is down to Arkansas (home state) and Michigan. He has not committed to signing during the early period but it's very possible he does. The thought here is that he wants to leave the state (he currently plays HS at Montverde Academy in Florida with Zeb Jackson) but that family wants him at home. Michigan has a good shot here but the longer this goes on the more uncertain it gets, especially with new schools like Virginia trying to get in the mix.

Longer term Michigan has a few targets for the late signing period as well, namely 5 stars Nimari Burnett and Joshua Christopher.
