Jonathan Powell will not headed to Xavier after all. The 6-foot-6 shooting guard out of Centerville (OH) has requested to be released from his National Letter of Intent (NLI) to Xavier and will reopen his recruitment.
The three-star senior committed to Sean Miller and the Musketeers in May of 2023 and signed his NLI during the earlier period in November. He ultimately chose Xavier over a final group of Clemson, Indiana, Michigan State, Ohio State, and Virginia Tech.

Powell Scouting Report
“Jonathan Powell is a lengthy and rangy off-guard. He is a natural ability to score from each level. He has a good handle in the half-court, where he gets to his spots. The jump shot has good balance and a consistent release. He needs to work on shot prep off the ball and tighten his angles and footwork. There is positional size, confidence, and nice athleticism. His father was a double-digit scorer at Eastern Michigan.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
