Report: Brandon McCoy Jr. is staying at Michigan

Incoming freshman guard Brandon McCoy Jr. is staying at Michigan, as first reported by ESPN.

McCoy is a five-star recruit ranked 13th nationally, per Rivals’ Industry Ranking, and committed to Michigan at halftime during the Final Four.

McCoy is a 6-foot-5 guard with a 6-foot-11 wingspan who is known as one of the best defensive players in the class. He’s projected as a likely starter in Michigan’s lineup next to the returning backcourt of Elliot Cadeau and Trey McKenney.

McCoy is the 9th player to announce his intent to return to Michigan following Dusty May’s departure, joining Elliot Cadeau, Trey McKenney, JP Estrella, Moustapha Thiam, and several others.
