No, offer was was ever reported.......MU watched him......that's it.

You'd have thought they offered him 2 scholarships the way some on here lambasted Wojo for even looking at him.

Given that the Antetokounmpo's spent a total of 2 years in college between the 3 oldest kids, one of which was spent red shirting, I have a hard time believing Alex will be in college for a junior season.

I think the youngest has been in this country longer and has a better chance of enjoying the full collegiate experience .

Giannis has spent some time over the past couple years training with little Alex and Giannis has said that he has the highest hopes for Alex of any of his brothers because Alex shares his desire and work ethic to become great (and that presumably his other brothers don't have). So this Antetokounmpo may be more worth watching....

You first said you thought he was "pretty much of lock"

Then you backpedaled and said that many on here have a "very high level of confidence" we will land him (which you are making up)

Then you pedal even further back and say that he has been mentioned as a main target dozens of times. You finally got it right. He's our target, but we have no indication that we're a front runner.

My post was mainly trying to convey the difference between where you started and where you ended up in a matter of 3 posts. I do not believe he is ours to lose, nor do I believe he ends up at MU.

By all accounts his recruiting is wide open. Seems to me you want people to believe that recruits are "locks" so that you can turn it around on Wojo and his supporters when they don't come to MU. Perhaps I'm misinterpreting, but that would certainly fit your agenda.

Good post

The world is ready to implode: Coach K -- channeling his "inner Wojo"? -- is going after a 3-star.

Top 50 recruit Jalen Wilson is reopening his recruitment, he tells @247Sports. Originally signed with Michigan. Will be heavily pursued.

He is now one of the top 5 currently uncommitted high school seniors. Everyone with an open scholarship (and a few without them) will be after him. Hope we are one of the ones reaching out.

Dexter takes Heldt’s scholly
Jayce takes Chartouny’s
Jalen takes Joey’s
Nico or Sam takes Sam’s
And, if Ike can’t continue, Symir enrolls early and takes Ike’s.

I can get on board with this!

In case anyone forgot, MU was in Wilson's top 6 before he committed to UM. No idea what his feelings on MU are now.

Who else in his original top 6 has a schollie available for next season?

MU not mentioned...

Wilson did inform 247Sports that he intends to look at Kansas, North Carolina, Oklahoma State and Florida, along with considering Michigan going forward.

Michigan (obviously)
Kansas (2 available)

Baylor, UCLA, and Oklahoma State are technically at 13 scholarships already. Though this is the type of player that you make room for if he wants to play for you.

Kansas (and UCLA if you still count them) were the only two blue bloods that offered him the first time around. Interestingly, his stock has fallen since his commitment. He was once a top 20, 5-star player and is now a top 50-75 4-star player. Despite this, being one of the only available top high school players I wouldn't be surprised if other blue bloods got involved. I would assume that Kansas will make a strong push.

Certainly not good news but may not necessarily be bad news. I expect he will hear from a lot more than just those schools in the near future. I hope MU reaches out.
