BU recruit- Draymond Green- class of 2008

[Da Coach]

I don't know how seriously Bradley is about this kid, but he is a real stud. There is a new article posted on the Scout network today about him. Draymond Green is a teammate of Daniel West at Saginaw High School (Saginaw, Michigan), and like Daniel, he is a junior (class of 200. Bradley is listed as following him. The article below says "Xavier, Michigan State, Michigan, Nevada, Bradley, Wichita State and Indiana are among the schools who have stopped down to see him thus far."
But his profile does not list any scholarship offers yet. He is 6'7"-6'8", 230 pounds, and may be the best player on the team, and is a high-major recruit eventually. A senior on that team is Josh Southern, who Bradley also recruited and is now committed to Boston College.
Saginaw is the #1 rated high school in Michigan.

Here is his Scout profile--

Rivals profile lists him as 6'8", 238 lbs. They list a pretty impressive group of schools pursuing him--

The title suggests he may have some work to do to merit a scholarship offer.

It would be nice to see him accompany Daniel West to Bradley and keep benefitting from his assists.

Draymond Green had verball committed to Kentucky, but decommitted after Tubby Smith left.
Now he has risen to #57 nationally on Scout.com's (#79 on Rivals.com) rankings and is getting offers from many Top 25-type schools. The latest to show interest is Indiana. Green visited Indiana on an unofficial visit last weekend.

Bradley is no longer listed on Scout, but in a recent interview, Green did mention Bradley.

It is a subscription article. It says he is now ranked the #72 player in the country. He has narrowed his choices down to Michigan, Michigan State, and Indiana. He has scheduled a press conference for 1:30 pm Thursday in Saginaw to announce his final choice.

I like Tom Izzo's chances in this situation.

Oh no.....Green is down to 3, and Bradley is not on the list.
Tubby Smith and Minnesota are also not on the final list.
