The University of Michigan's Spike Albrecht, a 5-foot-11 guard, is headed upstate this weekend to meet with coaches and tour the facilities at Syracuse, according to CuseNation.com.
Albrecht saw action in only eight games this season, all before January, after undergoing bilateral hip surgery last summer. In his junior year, he averaged 7.5 points per game. He has the combined skills of a point guard and shooting guard as a good ball handler and outside shooter. Albrecht also has the vision to create plays on the court. The Orange are in need of a guard, particularly in the case that Malachi Richardson leaves for the NBA for good, which is very likely considering his current rise on daily draft boards.
