Michigan coach Juwan Howard offered an update on the recruitment of German prospect Franz Wagner on Tuesday.

And he might have committed a minor NCAA violation in the process.

During a radio interview on “Jim Rome’s Daily Jungle,” guest hosts and Michigan alums Randy and Jason Sklar ended the 14-minute segment with a question about Wagner and his looming decision to come play college basketball in Ann Arbor, or sign a professional contract with German team Alba Berlin.

Under NCAA rules, coaches are not allowed to publicly comment on an unsigned recruit.
