During a signing ceremony at his high school's gymnasium Thursday, one of the nation's top recruiting violations made his intent to play basketball for the University of Michigan official. 'I'm excited to be part of the Michigan tradition, and I hope to start helping them this year,' said the recruiting violation, 19, referring to a season that the NCAA will eventually strip from the record books. 'I hope to follow in the rich tradition of Robert Traylor and Chris Webber.' Though rumors are already swirling concerning his close ties to wealthy alumni athletic boosters, the recruiting violation expressly and vehemently denied these allegations in a conference call made from his new Porsche Cayenne.
