BREAKING NEWS: XAVIER HENRY TO MICHIGAN!

How's that to pick up your day???

In "Fuckin' Shitballs!!!" news, Jason King of Yahoo! has literally just broken news that the nation's #1 basketball recruit, SG Xavier Henry, has already bailed on Memphis with the departure of John Calipari and will instead become a MICHIGAN MAN!!!

Henry's father, Carl, has confirmed the report.

Apparently, Xavier became enamored with Big Blue while watching the Dance and had an impromptu 30-minute talk with Johnny B after hearing about Cal-to-Kentucky.

Oh, and it didn't hurt he LOVES the Fab Five.

Said Carl: "Xavier's already got his black socks picked out."

A press conference is scheduled at 4:00 PM for his Oklahoma City High School, which will be broadcast live on ESPNEWS.

(FYI: It's pronounced "Zah-vee-A", not Xavier like the school - better get used to saying it!)

Needless to say, this is the biggest recruiting haul since the Fab Five and instantly puts Michigan in the 2010 national title hunt. Now please pardon us while we go barf up our Pop Tart.
