2023 Basketball PG Combo Guard visiting today
George Washington III recently decommitted from OSU. Got a UM offer on October 4, and immediately is on an official visit. Looks like a good one; 247 loves him.

With the hairstyle, maybe he could be another Eli Brooks, that worked out well.
Edit: ok, I just watched his film, how is he just a 3 star?
He's an elite passer, has great hops, can shoot. I'd love to get this kid in maize and blue!
October 8th, 2022 at 6:59 AM ^
Well according to 247 and the composite he's a 4 star
October 7th, 2022 at 8:47 PM ^
Just think of all the jokes.

Crossing over the Delaware
October 7th, 2022 at 9:11 PM ^
Chopped down a buckeye tree & sees value in Benedict Arnold
October 7th, 2022 at 9:32 PM ^
What did George Washington say to his men before crossing the Delaware?
Get in the boat.
October 8th, 2022 at 8:29 AM ^
Get to the choppah!
October 7th, 2022 at 9:13 PM ^
Not loving the fact that Hokeman didn't want him.
Maybe he's our version of Duane Washington.

G-Dub III: "Fuck Ohio."
October 7th, 2022 at 9:39 PM ^
Do you find joy in anything other than concern trolling Michigan athletics?
October 7th, 2022 at 10:32 PM ^
As soon as I saw the thread I knew I'd see Franz here Franzing. It is a darn shame he is sullying Wagner's good name.
October 8th, 2022 at 11:23 AM ^
I don't know much about his concern trolling history but his point is valid. It is very likely Washington got processed at OSU, hence the decommit. He has been steadily dropping in the rankings. I think we mostly agree around the Michigan fan sites that Holtman is a good coach with an eye for talent. Nobody is perfect obviously but we do seem to be going after OSU's unwanted sloppy seconds. Here's hoping they fucked up on their evaluation.
October 7th, 2022 at 9:53 PM ^
Remember when Ohio St didn’t take Trey Burke? That worked out pretty well for us.
October 7th, 2022 at 10:59 PM ^
They had Craft and his rosy cheeks!
October 7th, 2022 at 11:42 PM ^
TROLL!

Papa Kante is apparently taking another visit to Michigan as well.
2024 commit Christian Anderson is apparently a legit 5’11” now according to 247s Eric Bossi
October 7th, 2022 at 9:37 PM ^
Papa also recently got a Crystal Ball to the good guys from a random Indiana insider as well. Seems out of the blue, but the predictor is also has a 100% hit rate thus far, so it's not like he's throwing out picks willy-nilly.
Good news overall on our front, particularly since this comes after the Memphis buzz that kicked off when they hired his AAU coach.
Also the Christian Anderson news is great to hear. With how people are talking about him, every inch he gains is solid gold based on his overseas scouting where it seemed like size was the only knock.
October 7th, 2022 at 10:57 PM ^
A couple Rivals 🔮 balls rolled in for the Blue Man Group.
October 7th, 2022 at 9:56 PM ^
That is the one we have to close on. Matt and others have said it’s hard to get quality bigs out of the portal so we need high school kids for that area. Would love to add Kante and Washington to the team.
October 8th, 2022 at 5:04 AM ^
Hopefully Papa gets it together after some rough times in Hawkins. Maybe he can wear the number 11 in honor of Elle.
October 7th, 2022 at 9:46 PM ^
We need someone to do to OSU what Duane Washington would do to us
October 7th, 2022 at 10:57 PM ^
Terrance Williams did that last March.
October 8th, 2022 at 10:00 AM ^
Thinking more along the lines of how Duane felt spurned by Michigan and showed out against us almost every time we played. GW3 could feel spurned by OSU and put up 20 against them every time.
October 8th, 2022 at 7:59 AM ^
October 7th, 2022 at 9:57 PM ^
seems taller than 6'2 to me
October 8th, 2022 at 7:17 AM ^
Naw. Dude doesn’t look an inch over 5’14”.
October 7th, 2022 at 10:18 PM ^
Here comes the general!
October 8th, 2022 at 8:45 AM ^
Guys got permanent hype music that will always get a a crowd going.
October 8th, 2022 at 11:28 AM ^
…six-star general at that.
October 7th, 2022 at 11:45 PM ^
I cannot tell a lie--G-Dub III can't be denied!
October 8th, 2022 at 12:29 AM ^
A Dayton guy from CJ! That's the alma mater of Martin Sheen.
October 8th, 2022 at 2:58 AM ^
He'll be a big hit if we play in London again.
