Tre Holloman, the top Minnesota recruit in Class of 2022, picks Michigan State
Arguably the best player in Minnesota's boys basketball Class of 2022, Tre Holloman announced Sunday that he's headed to Michigan State University on a basketball scholarship.
Holloman will play for Spartans legendary coach Tom Izzo rather than suit up for first-year head coach Ben Johnson at the University of Minnesota.
Holloman is the No. 1 recruit in Minnesota's Class of 2022, according to 247Sports. The recruiting service ranks the 6-foot-2 guard as a four-star player and the 67th-best recruit in the national Class of 2022.
In late June Holloman narrowed his list of colleges to six: Michigan State, Minnesota, Oklahoma State, Marquette, Dayton and Illinois.
Holloman is also a three-star recruit in football and has offers from Michigan State, Minnesota, Iowa, Iowa State and Nebraska, among others. It's unclear if he'll attempt to be a two-sport athlete in East Lansing.
The No. 2 recruit in Minnesota's Class of 2022, per 247Sports, is Eli King of Caledonia, who has committed to Iowa State. King is also a four-star player who ranks 88th nationally.
The No. 3 recruit, Minnehaha Academy's Prince Aligbe, has yet to announcement his commitment. He too is a four-star recruit who ranks 100th nationally. Coming in at No. 101 nationally, Wayzata's Camden Heide has already committed to Purdue.
