Mike Saunders Jr., UC guard in transfer portal, says he won't announce commitment Thursday

Mike Saunders Jr., a freshman guard this past season for the Cincinnati Bearcats who entered the NCAA transfer portal in March, posted on his Instagram account that he wouldn't be announcing his commitment Thursday as previously expected.

Stockrisers.com's Jake Weingarten reported Monday via Twitter that Saunders had completed virtual meetings with Wichita State and BYU and would make his college choice on Thursday. Saunders retweeted it.

Saunders was one of six UC players in a three-day span to enter the transfer portal.

Saunders was the first player offered a scholarship by former head coach John Brannen in April 2019.
