    Nyk Lewis, the 6-foot-1, four-star point guard from Gonzaga College High School (Washington, D.C.) is down to six schools and will visit Michigan officially beginning Thursday (Aug. 1).

    Lewis broke down his top six of Xavier, Seton Hall, LSU, Michigan, Georgetown and Creighton for ZAGSBLOG.

    Xavier – “Me and the coaching staff have been in contact since June 15th of last year and we have built a great relationship. Me, coach [Adam] Cohen and [head coach] Sean] Miller talk almost every day. The program is heading in a positive direction and should be at the top of the Big East soon.
    This is in my list based off their commitment to me.”

    Seton Hall – “I am close with coaches [Rasheen] Davis and [Shaheen] Holloway. I like how they critique my games and always find something to help me get better. I love the style of basketball Seton Hall plays, very fast-paced and I like the coaching style of coach Holloway. He really brings the best out of his point guards.”

    LSU – “They have been involved since June 15th of last year and all of the staff has been in contact with me. The visit I went on was great and the campus was beautiful. LSU is looking to make a jump this year from middle of the SEC to finishing higher in the top four of the conference so that should be good.”

    Michigan – “Coach [Mike] Boynton from Oklahoma State has done a great job of recruiting me at Michigan, along with [head coach] Dusty May who has seen me all summer. I am looking to know more about them on my upcoming visit.”

    Georgetown – “Coach [Ed] Cooley has been involved and in contact with me since my sophomore year and Georgetown is very close to home. The rebuild of Georgetown over the next coming years will be great and coach Cooley is an amazing coach and person.”

    Creighton – “I had always liked Creighton’s style of play and offense and I am looking to visit there and learn more about them in the coming weeks. Coach [Greg] McDermott and coach [Derek] Kellog have been in contact with me. I know coach McDermott is a great coach.”
