Michigan Basketball Adds Commitment From 5-Star, Top-15 Prospect

McCoy chose the Wolverines over several top programs, joining a recruiting class that already ranked among the nation’s best, Michigan said.

  • On Saturday, five-star point guard Brandon McCoy Jr. announced his commitment to the University of Michigan during halftime of the 'Fab Five' alternate broadcast of the NCAA Tournament Final Four game.
  • Michigan basketball legends Chris Webber, Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard, Jimmy King, and Ray Jackson, comprising the 1991 recruiting class, reunited for the alternate broadcast and interviewed McCoy live during the game.
  • The 6-foot-5, 190-pound guard from Sierra Canyon High School averaged 21 points, nine rebounds, and five assists per game during his senior year, establishing himself as a top national prospect.
  • Head coach Dusty May secured his first five-star commitment since arriving in Ann Arbor, bolstering the roster ahead of Monday's national championship game against the UConn Huskies.
  • McCoy becomes the sixth member of Michigan's 2026 recruiting class, joining Quinn Costello, Joseph Hartman, Lincoln Cosby, Malachi Brown, and Marcus Moller as the Wolverines strengthen their roster for sustained dominance.
