Tyus Battle Decommits from Michigan: Latest Details, Comments and Reaction

Tyus Battle, one of the most coveted recruits in the 2016 class, is reportedly starting to consider other opportunities after committing to Michigan last month.

Evan Daniels of Scout reports the shooting guard's first stop after reopening his recruitment will be an official visit to Syracuse over the weekend.

Battle is a 5-star prospect who rates as the No. 20 overall player in next year's class, according to 247Sports' composite rankings. The outlet notes he's received 25 offers, most coming from top programs around the country.

It's easy to see why so many coaching staffs are interested.

He's an exciting two-way prospect with an ideal frame and the tools to become an efficient scorer when attacking the rim as well as a high-end perimeter defender.

Landing with the right program is crucial for his development because he's still a raw talent. He is going to need consistent minutes in order to become a more polished player and apparently decided he hasn't found the perfect fit despite his prior commitment to Michigan.

It's a huge loss for the Wolverines, who were counting on him as the cornerstone of the next recruiting class. They will struggle to replace him, although it's unclear if he has totally ruled out the program or is just reassessing his options before making the final call.

For now, Battle is heading to Syracuse with an open mind about his future. Wherever he lands, a school is getting an intriguing prospect.
