Basketball portal heated up late last week. Michigan got a pair of commits in Mustafa Chiam.

I remember that from last week. And then one kind of out of nowhere on Thursday, I think it was

in Jalen Reed, the forward out of LSU. We also had a Juke Harris update today from Joe Tipton.

that right now. We just put out a magazine. We are doing basketball recruiting issue. We're going to get Dusty May on Wednesday. He'll talk about some of the guys that are signing. Just about all the letters are in, I've been told. So that's exciting. That's one heck of a class between the transfers and the and the freshmen.
