Michigan Wolverines basketball coach Juwan Howard added another critical piece to his 2022 recruiting class when big man Tarris Reed pledged last week. U-M will try to add a couple more from his class.
One — Jett Howard — will visit Tennessee, LSU and a few others, but we strongly believe he ends up a Wolverine … and that he gets a nice bump in the rankings.
“He’s a stud. He’s really good,” Rivals.com’s Jamie Shaw told us after seeing Howard at the recent NBAPA Top 100 camp. “He’s another one I’ll be pushing for a significant bump. I wish he’d shot it better, but he’s just one of those incredible role guys that fits in a ton of situations.”

There aren’t any holes in his game, Shaw noted, adding he’s good at everything but still looking to get “great” in a few areas. He’d be a great fit at a program like Virginia or Villanova — maybe John Beilen’s Michigan, which Juwan Howard has molded in his image while keeping many of the same principles — and is a ‘tough as [heck], big, strong kid who can handle, pass and shoot,’ Shaw said.
