Louisville Basketball Recruiting: 2018 Kentucky Forward Mickey Pearson Reopens Recruitment

Another 2018 recruit has re-opened his recruitment, and it could be to the benefit of Louisville basketball.

2018 John Hardin forward Mickey Pearson, who was called a program-changer by his head coach, withdrew his commitment to Saint Louis on Tuesday night.

Pearson is a phenomenal talent in regards to what typically comes out of the 5th region in Kentucky. He is 6’8,” and 180 pounds, and easily surpassed the 2,000 point, 1,000 rebound plateau during his senior year. In his final year for the program from Elizabethtown, he averaged over 27 points and 11 rebounds per game.
