Fran Brown outdid Michigan, Oregon — which beat him for New York’s top player in June — and ACC rival Florida State. Apparently, Brown had the battle won for days. “I’m not going to lie, I made [my decision] a couple of days ago,” Russell told recruiting website Rivals at the party. “Michigan came close, but Coach Fran, the individual he is, how he was raised, I feel it. How he carries himself, the men I was raised around are similar to him, that’s why I want to be there.” Russell said his recruitment is finished. Russell also confirmed he will be playing basketball for the Orange, which was big in his recruitment to both Syracuse and Michigan.[/I] [MEDIA=twitter]1941808604710903814[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
