Published reports indicate that former Chicago Farragut star Michael Dunigan is considering foregoing his final two years of college to sign a professional contract overseas. Dunigan ranked among the top 2008 prospects in the country as a high school senior.

Dunigan, a 6'10" center, was selected to the McDonald's All-America team following a standout career at Chicago Farragut.

DuckTerritory.com initially reported that Dunigan was set to sign a 3-year contract with Hapoel Jerusalem. A newspaper in Tel Aviv also reported that Dunigan was on the verge of signing. However, DuckTerritory.com is also now reporting that sources have told them that Dunigan is still considering staying at Oregon, and hasn't made a final decision.

Joevan Catron (Thornton) is set to begin his senior year at Oregon while Matthew Humphrey (Chicago Hales Franciscan) has transferred to Boston College, and Josh Crittle (Chicago Hales Franciscan) has transferred to Central Florida.
