Is it still true that he have a verbal from Epps (2017) - SG from Wayne Memorial? I saw him ranked in the top 25 in his MI (junior) class.

River Rouge (Stone's school) has a good PG, Owens-White, who is also a 2017 player. I've seen him ranked in the top 15 in his MI (junior) class.

Come March 2017 we lose a lot of our back court (Lee, Mangum, Toney) but are expected to be very strong up front with JT4, LWH, Bond, Madray, Noble, Jones, etc.

Based on that, I'd go with a h.s. backcourt player this April (e.g., Justin Turner - combo from Detroit) and couple more in April 2017.

Don't forget we have also offered Brown and Towns for 2016. Towns would be closer to a true point while Brown could be a Tim Bond like combo big guard/small forward player.

looking at rankings from a pay site: Turner is a top unsigned prospect in MI. Towns and Brown are both legitimate MAC prospects.

(my 'criteria' is that a player has to be top 5 senior in MI to be consider a B1G or high major recruit, although not all top 5s go high major. For the MAC I basically go down to say ranked 30. To me anything below 30 is a MAC Plan B recruit.).
