Michigan will host James Blackmon Jr. for an official visit on Saturday.

Blackmon’s visit will most likely result in an offer from John Beilein.

A top-40 prospect in 2014, Blackmon also has unofficial visits to both Kentucky and Louisville planned for this week.

Dante Exum will graduate from high school in Australia in October and is one of the top prospects eligible for the 2014 NBA Draft.

"Schools have been saying I can start in early December and play this season," Exum told ESPN. "But if college is the option, I'll stay in Australia, do workouts with the national team and then go to college next August. Playing this season in college is not an option."

Exum is considering Indiana, North Carolina, Kentucky, Michigan and Oregon.

Tom Izzo was voted the best X's and O's coach in college basketball in an informal poll of his peers.

“Tom’s guys not only understand what they want; they execute details to make sure it happens,” said Lon Kruger.

John Beilein of Michigan, Rick Pitino of Louisville, Bill Self of Kansas and Bob McKillop of Davidson placed in the top-5.

Mike Krzyzewski was ranked seventh, while John Calipari placed 16th.

Dante Exum is strongly considering declaring his entry in the 2014 NBA draft.

"I used to be like 90 percent to 10 that I was going to college, but recently they are saying that my stock has risen even more, that I could possibly go top five," said Exum, a native of Australia. “Now it's more of a 50-50 decision."

Exum, a 6-foot-6 point guard who’s being recruited by Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky and North Carolina, among others, admits to being lured by the financial security of the NBA.

"If I'm ready, I'm ready - and the money also appeals,” said Exum. “I always dreamt about being rich as a kid. But my family will always help me make the right decisions throughout the whole process.”
