SG Brevin Pritzl to Wisconsin
The sweet-shooting 6'3" two guard chose to take Wisconsin up on its offer of a 2015 scholarship. He recently made an unofficial visit Michigan but apparently did not receive an offer. He'll probably be a nice player at some point, but the Michigan coaches seemed to see him as a back-up plan to Eron Harris (who, per Raoul's post below, is visiting Michigan June 6-7) and Jalen Coleman.
Now he can start working on sliding under jump shooters, grabbing opposing players, flopping, and whining like a stuck pig anytime a call goes against him. Because that's the Badger Way.*
*I wish the kid luck, but it's important to criticize Wisconsin basketball whenever you can.
Glad he made a decision that makes him happy, even if I will now irrationally get angry every time he makes a shot.
I dont know why, but I really want a pretzel right now.
Over / under on him hitting a buzzer beater against Michigan at some point?
I set the line at "maybe"
The bank will be open.
from half court to send the game to over time we're cool.
/still pissed.
Cheese goes well with pritzls.
Good luck to him. Hope nobody at UM rolls an ankle when they land on top of him.
Didn't he commit last week?
I don't think it's been on the board. I just saw it today on UMHoops.
As the Buckys article mentions, it was a decent list of mid-major offers indeed - Creighton, Davidson, Drake, Marquette, ND State, Northern Illinois, Toledo, South Dakota State, Wisconsin-Green Bay, Wisconsin-Milwaukee and Xavier. There are some good ones on the list, to be sure. If I am reading 247 right, Indiana and North Carolina showed some interest but made no offers - didn't see that he even visited those two.
The title says it all.
And I didn't even bother reading the rest of the post.
These posts are making me thirsty!
Indy Star has an Eron Harris update; he's visiting Michigan June 6–7, after visiting MSU this Saturday. He's also considering Purdue, a school he already visited.

I have twisted emotions over Pritzl and I am salty over his Badger choice.
