  • Looks like a really nice player from what I've seen too. Pretty sure he'll be at Michigan's elite camp this summer.

    • At midnight, it became open time to offer scholarships to the class of 2013. We should be getting some news in the next few days as to who we extended offers to.

        • I would bet Austin Hatch and Mark Donnell would commit very soon if they were offered. Curious to see how JB will approach it.

          • One potential commit says another did commit:

              • Hatch confirmed:

                Austin Hatch just confirmed that he committed to Michigan this afternoon. Hatch delcared in April that Michigan was “probably No. 1”, today he made it official by verbally committing to John Beilein and the Michigan Wolverines. Hatch received an official offer from the Michigan staff on June 15th and didn’t wait long to make his pledge. […]

                • Mark Donnal confirmed as well:

                  Commitments come in pairs and 2013 big man Mark Donnal verbally committed shortly after Austin Hatch joined in. Michigan head coach John Beilein extended a scholarship offer this afternoon and Donnal quickly accepted. Donnal is a 6-foot-9, 200 pound big man out of Anthony Wayne High School in Whitehouse, Ohio that plays his AAU basketball […]


                  Here are ESPN's notes, where he is ranked #81:

                  ESPN

                  Strengths:
                  Mark is an ever-improving big man in the 2013 class. He has good hands and good feet. He is a solid athlete that can play above the rim. He has developed a solid face-up jumpshot out to 17 feet which has really helped expand his game. He is a good rebounder and uses his big body well inside.

                  Weaknesses:
                  He doesn’t possess much of a low post game as he prefers to face up. When he does catch it down low it’s either a dunk or layup. He do well to add a jump hook, turn around jumper or up-and-under move. He’s not much of a shot blocker.

                  Bottom Line:
                  Mark has really come on in the last year (2011). He is improving by leaps and bounds as a player and a prospect. He’s becoming a priority for mid to high major programs in the midwest already. His added jump shot has made him a high major prospect.

                        • Michigan apparently also have offered Zak Irvin a scholarship. Land him and one of the talented PG's they are after and that looks like a pretty damn good class.

                            • Morris sounds like he's going to wait a bit (mid July) till he pulls the trigger.

                              • We'll see. UMHoops mentioned Michigan offered him and he lists Michigan as his #1.

                                While Michigan landed a pair of commitments earlier this afternoon in Austin Hatch and Mark Donnal, they handed out two three more scholarship offers. Head coach John Beilein extended offers to both Monte Morris, Zak Irvin and Derrick Walton throughout this afternoon and evening.

                                Derrick Walton was also offered.
