Michigan verbal Tyus Battle is reopening his recruitment and will take an official visit to Syracuse this weekend, Scout.com’s Evan Daniels reported Friday morning.
With Brandon Reddish gone, the cornerback spot is up for grabs, and Hudson, Juwan Dowels and former WR Corey Winfield are all possible players to land the job.
While we do not know if there are any special skill position players on the roster, time will tell, specifically if Lester gives certain players a greater role in the offense.
Thompson hasn’t been officially named a starter yet, but it’s hard to imagine anyone beating him out for the job, especially after an impressive spring game.
Dion Waiters and Michael Carter-Williams leapt from small roles as freshmen to lottery picks after impressive sophomore campaigns. Tyler Ennis made the jump before he even arrived on campus.
