Commitment Status Undecided on College Choice

Alexander made the trip to Camp Randall for the Nebraska game, spent some time with head coach Bo Ryan and return home with a scholarship offer from Wisconsin. The competition for Alexander's commitment will be fierce, as his offer sheet is a Who's Who list of college basketball powers despite only playing organized basketball since 8th grade. Connecticut, DePaul, Florida State, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan State, Ohio State, Providence and Tennessee have all offered Alexander. He allegedly canceled a visit to Illinois and went to Michigan State instead; his Twitter icon is also a picture of him with Tom Izzo. This will be a tough sell for the Badgers.
