AKRON, Ohio — Mitch McGary is one of the hottest names in the Class of 2012.
The 6-foot-11, 260-pound big man from Brewster (N.H.) Academy has a Who’s Who of Division 1 schools recruiting him.
In this video at the LeBron James Skills Academy, he says Maryland is recruiting him the hardest, but that he’s also intrigued by Kentucky, which he plans to visit, and Coach John Calipari, with whom he spoke last week.
“He just wanted to tell me he was going to be here and he was excited to watch me,” McGary said of Calipari.
McGary also took an unofficial to Michigan last Wednesday.
He and his father, Tim, plan to cut his list to nine or 10 soon.
“I’ll probably come out with a list in the next month,” he said.
