June has been an exciting month in the recruiting world here in Michigan. There have been a good number of really solid offers. We’ve seen some incredibly smart offers from some programs that I really think did their homework. I’m going to give you 5 offers that I think were great offers by the coach and program. [player_tooltip player_id="418208" first="Malyah" last="Bynum"] (2023, PG, Trenton) https://x.com/bynumalyah/status/1540404755951927296?t=CFAKjBCIqYA7428s7RcQnw&s=19   Bynum received an offer from Kentucky Christian University. I was very impressed with Bynum on the PGH CIRCUIT this spring. She handled the ball well and got to her spots off the bounce. Bynum searched out contact and got to the line consistently. This was a great job by the Kentucky Christian staff in finding that underrated out of state talent.

The Findlay coaching staff did a great job recognizing a winner, in essence the type of player that programs at all levels are looking for. She has a mature game and a high basketball IQ. Best of all, Lindo makes winning plays at important times. I can’t help but believe that this will translate to the next level. [player_tooltip player_id="244298" first="Mia" last="McLaughlin"] (2024, CG, Frankenmuth) https://x.com/miamac2024/status/1540053554211262464?t=_z-Jl7615ProYYw7HWqGdw&s=19 McLaughlin received an offer from Northwood University. It’s good to get in on rising in state talent and McLaughlin is just that. Her upside at Northwood, with their solid coaching staff, could be tremendous. McLaughlin has been the shining example of a player that just keeps putting in the work and seeing the results of that effort in improvement. [player_tooltip player_id="244230" first="Brook" last="Simpson"] (2024, CG, Belding) https://x.com/BNS2024/status/1539795392115752965?t=w6MnL0JfH6RAPhr06VMD4w&s=19 Simpson received an offer from Navy. Coach Tim Taylor and Navy women’s basketball I think see the same for here that I do. First of all, she’s an elite talent and a national target on the perimeter. But as far as fit, to be a part of a service academy, you have to be as tough as they come. Simpson is just that. She’s a rock both mentally and physically. [player_tooltip player_id="189304" first="DeAndrea" last="Smith"] (2023, SF, Flint Carman Ainsworth) https://x.com/Krispy_dede10/status/1540064846946918400?t=gh3ap0ZJTeOKvqH6wIDG4Q&s=19   Smith received an offer from an offer from Lawrence Tech. I really think the Lawrence Tech coaching staff nailed it on this one. Smith has next level strength and toughness. She’s a 2 way player that can defend all over the floor and might have been the best passer at the PGH Michigan Top 250 last fall.
