Come Thursday evening, the future of Michigan's basketball program may get a whole lot brighter. That is when the nation's No. 2 prospect Mitch McGary is expected to make his college decision with an announcement that will air at 5 p.m. on ESPN U.
McGary wrote on his blog that his recruiting process is over and that Michigan, along with Duke and Florida are the final three schools he's still considering. A report from ESPN.com's Dave Telep said Michigan is the leading destination to land the the 6-10 prospect from Chesterton, Ind.
Michigan's 2012 recruiting class already includes top prospects Glenn Robinson III (3-star recruit) from Indiana, the son of former NBA player Glenn "Big Dog" Robinson, and Nick Stauskas (3-star recruit) from Massachusetts. U-M's 2012 class also includes forward Max Bielfeldt from Illinois, who was sought after by several other Big Ten schools.
If McGary comes to Ann Arbor, the Wolverines will have perhaps the most talented team in the Big Ten for years to come.
