Under the direction of new head coach Juwan Howard, Michigan basketball finds itself competing for at least eight top-50 recruits in 2020. While the Wolverines aren’t the favorite as of yet with any of the eight, each of those players included UM on their most recent list.
Some players, like Nimari Burnett, who put Michigan basketball on his top-12 list, is going to shrink his recruitment down even further as he narrows his list to five soon. If the Wolverines make that one, he could be another viable option just as Lance Ware is becoming one.
