In an unexpected turn of events, highly touted point guard recruit Xavier Simpson committed to the University of Michigan on Wednesday.
Sam Webb of WTKA was among the first to report Simpson's shocking decision. He also provided a photo of the talented point guard and his family decked out in Wolverines garb:

According to 247Sports, Simpson is a 4-star prospect who rates as the No. 13 point guard and the No. 71 overall player in the class of 2016.
The 5'11" native of Lima, Ohio, didn't seem to have Big Blue on his radar as Michigan was not listed among his final four choices in an Instagram post Monday.
