Contacted by MLive Monday morning, Battle's father, Gary, declined to comment. "Ty and I are not making any comments until we figure things out," Gary Battle wrote in a text message. Asked to clarify the status of his son's reopened recruitment and whether Michigan is still involved, Gary Battle said, "If I knew than I could say but I truly don't until I sit with fam and talk to Michigan." [URL='http://www.mlive.com/wolverines/index.ssf/2015/05/tyus_battle.html']Tyus Battle committed to Michigan on May 11[/URL], giving the Wolverines their biggest score in the 2016 class and joining commitments from centers Jon Teske (Medina, Ohio) and Austin Davis (Onsted, Michigan). The 6-foot-6 shooting guard picked Michigan over scholarship offers from Duke, Syracuse and Louisville, among many others. Battle's pledge to U-M came after an official visit to Ann Arbor on the weekend of May 7. At the time, he still held scheduled return trips to UConn and Syracuse. Those were cancelled when Battle committed to Michigan. ...

Sure, college football news is heating up, and basketball news never stops in Syracuse. But realistically, I didn’t expect two program changing pieces of news to ripple through the Syracuse airwaves in the last few days. I’ll start with the most immediate and arguably the most important news—the hiring of a new athletic director. Mark Coyle was introduced at Syracuse yesterday, and brings with him high expectations. The second piece of news is a bit unexpected, and also important to SU. Highly ranked Class of 2016 recruit Tyus Battle, who had committed to Michigan, re-opened his recruitment, and Syracuse now appears to be back in the mix. With that being said, I want to start with this Battle news and then get back to Coyle. » [URL='http://sujuiceonline.com/2015/06/22/three-takeaways-from-syracuse-athletic-director-mark-coyles-introduction/']Related: Three takeaways from Syracuse athletic director Mark Coyle’s introduction[/URL] Now, I’m not a recruiting insider and I certainly can’t read into the mind of a high schooler. It’s also hard to read too much and get too up or down regarding recruits and commits. I will say this, though—since the sanctions hit Cuse in the last year, SU hasn’t picked up any new commits. ...[/I] [B][FONT=Arial][SIZE=6][COLOR=#ff8000]Other[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B] [I] [IMG]http://imgick.syracuse.com/home/syr-media/width620/img/entertainment_impact/photo/18161886-mmmain.jpg[/IMG] [/I] [B][URL='http://www.syracuse.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2015/06/megyn_kelly_independent_fox_news_variety.html#incart_m-rpt-1']Syracuse Native Megyn Kelly Lands Variety Cover: 'I'm an Independent' (PS; Herbert)[/URL][/B] [I] Syracuse native and [URL='http://www.syracuse.com/syracuse-university/']Syracuse University[/URL] alumna [URL='http://topics.syracuse.com/tag/Megyn%20Kelly/index.html']Megyn Kelly[/URL] continues to be a journalism juggernaut for Fox News, and she's doing it by forging her own path. The 44-year-old host of "The Kelly File" appears on the cover of Variety magazine as "the new star of Fox News," and deservedly so. She started hosting her own primetime talk show in 2013 and, less than a year later, started beating fellow [URL='http://www.syracuse.com/entertainment/index.ssf/2015/01/fox_news_megyn_kelly_ratings_bigger_syracuse.html']Fox News[/URL] host Bill O'Reilly some nights in the 25-54 ratings demographic and nipping at his heels in the overall audience with an average of more than 2 million total viewers.

"I have voted for both Democrats and Republicans," she said. "I'm an independent." Kelly added that, by "not rooting for anybody," she feels she can be a more impartial reporter. She's done tough interviews with 2016 GOP candidates Rand Paul and Jeb Bush, plus famously questioned Karl Rove for arguing Barack Obama hadn't won Ohio in the 2012 presidential election. She also told Variety she "respects Hillary Clinton" and would be "fair" to Democrats. [/I] [/QUOTE]
