AZZ Posters on Big Hoops Recruiting News
There's big Hoops Recruiting News for the Falcons. Nothing official, but it started with this on prepspotlight.com:
"Today is a big day for the Bowling Green basketball staff. Bowling Green Head Coach Dan Dakish has landed his first big recruit from the state of Michigan in his 8th year at the helm. Sunday afternoon, Prep Spotlight learned that one of the top 10 players from the state of Michigan walked into the basketball office's at Bowling Green and said "this is where I want to be."
Reliable sources on AZZ then indicated the player in question was Lionel Sullivan from Detroit St. Martin DePorres. 6'6, 215#. Was a first-team all-state selection as a junior. (!!) Lionel Sullivan is listed in Athlon's Top-300 national players for high school seniors. He comes in at #297. This would be a very nice pick up for BG.
Another AZZ source indicated the following, and to the contrary: "However, it was 6-7 Wilson Chandler that made his decision TODAY, and he is probably top 5 in MI, and is ranked #124 nationally. THIS, my friend, would be a great pickup. In the MAC, only Turner Battle, Keith Triplett, Peyton Stovall, and Danny Horace were rated higher coming out of HS."
So, it sounds like big news either way. I'm betting on Sullivan, and if so, that's another good get. All-state as a junior has to be a positive step. The new assistant coach from Detroit may have paid an early dividend, and if we can start to recruit that area well, it will be a big plus. Stay tuned for a final determination, but that will be four strong athletes for our five scholarships for next season.
UPDATE: Wilson Chandler has committed to DePaul.
