Castleton cut his list down to just two teams and those two programs were Illinois and Michigan. Getting into the top two for this talented 6-foot-10, 215-pound big man was a huge accomplishment for Brad Underwood and his staff.
Underwood had to beat out some tough competition to get to this point in the recruitment of Castleton. Many programs were after this kid including Baylor, Xavier and, at one-time dream school, Florida. But, the smoke has cleared and only the Illini and Wolverines are left vying for Castleton’s commitment.
The big question now remains; how will the Illini get this kid to commit?
