On Thursday afternoon, Sunrise Christian (Kan.) power forward Malik Hall is slated to announce his commitment. Hall, standing 6-foot-7, 190 pounds, is ranked 52nd in the nation in the 247Sports composite, putting him at 12th among power forwards. A few days ago, he released a top-three of MSU, Purdue and Oregon.
Michigan State seemed to be out of the picture, however, as Purdue was the unanimous favorite. Something seems to have changed, apparently, as Michigan State is now trending upwards the day before his announcement.
Brian Snow, a 247Sports recruiting expert, along with 247Sports Director of Basketball Scouting Jerry Meyer have both put in Crystal Balls for MSU on Wednesday morning.
