From Michigan:
University of Michigan David and Meredith Kaplan Men’s Basketball Head Coach Juwan Howardannounced Friday (Nov. 13) the signing of six prep all-star players to National Letters of Intent to join the Wolverines for the 2021-22 academic year.
The listing of the six signees include:
• Isaiah Barnes; 6-foot-7 guard/forward from Chicago, Ill. (Simeon Career Academy)
• Kobe Bufkin; 6-foot-4 guard from Grand Rapids, Mich. (Grand Rapids Christian High School)
• Frankie Collins; 6-foot-1 point guard from Henderson, Nev. (Coronado High School)
• Moussa Diabate; 6-foot-10 forward from Paris, France (IMG Academy, Fla.)
• Caleb Houstan; 6-foot-8 guard/forward from Mississauga, Ontario (Montverde Academy, Fla.)
• Will Tschetter; 6-foot-8 power forward from Stewartville, Minn. (Stewartville High School)
“While we are excited for today’s announcements, we want to first commend these six young men and their parents for the care, class, and maturity they showed while going through their recruiting processes,” said Howard. “We are blessed that they chose the University of Michigan for not just athletics but academics. We worked very hard at identifying high-character players and the pieces that are going to help our program. We want to make sure we have quality young men, from quality families who can come in and represent the Block ‘M’ and this university with dignity and grace. To all six I say, welcome to the Michigan family!”
Howard’s list of newest Wolverines begins with a pair of five-star recruits who are prepping in the state of Florida and are the top two rated players from the state in the Class of 2021. Montverde Academy forward Houstan (No. 8, 247 Sports; No. 10, ESPN; No. 11, Rivals) in the top spot with IMG Academy forward Diabate (No. 7, ESPN; No. 20, 247 Sports; No. 29, Rivals) second.
Though Howard did not refer to the class as the ‘Fab Six’, it sounds great so we are rolling with it.
