2020 Recruiting Update: May 2, 2019

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2020

Choe Bryant-Strother – LB – Norcross (GA) Greater Atlanta Christian: Bryant-Strother is a 6’2″, 230 lb. prospect with offers from Georgia Tech, Tennessee, and UCLA, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #18 inside linebacker, and #583 overall. He claims a 4.82 forty, a 4.1 shuttle, and a 37.2″ vertical. He’s also a former teammate of Michigan incoming freshman defensive tackle Chris Hinton (and 2020 Stanford commit Myles Hinton).

Jacobe Covington – CB – Scottsdale (AZ) Saguaro: Covington is a 6’1″, 193-pounder with offers from Arizona, Arizona State, LSU, Oklahoma, and Oregon, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #23 cornerback, and #279 overall. He took an official visit to Oklahoma last month, and all six of his crystal balls are for the Sooners. He’s a teammate of 2021 defensive end Quintin Somerville, who visited Michigan recently.

Hit the jump for several more new offers, as well as a bunch of guys who committed elsewhere.

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2020

Marcellus Moore – RB – Plainfield (IL) North: Moore is a 5’8″, 165 lb. prospect with offers from Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, and Ole Miss, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #54 running back, and #723 overall. He claims a 4.29 forty, a 34″ vertical, and a 10.31 in the 100 meters. Please watch his highlight video and think about Josh Gattis’s #speedinspace mantra:

Sawyer Racanelli – LB – Brush Prairie (WA) Hockinson: Racanelli is a 6’3″, 200-pounder with offers from Cal, Oregon State, and UCLA. Shortly after he got offered by Michigan, the Washington Huskies jumped in with an offer, which immediately turned into a crystal ball pick coming in for the Huskies. He’s a 3-star, the #27 athlete, and #348 overall. I imagine he’ll probably end up in Seattle, but he’s an intriguing WR/LB/S combo.

Hit the jump for many more bits and pieces.

Collin Duncan – WR – Montgomery (AL) St. James: Duncan is a 6’0″, 190 lb. prospect with offers from Mississippi State, North Carolina, and South Carolina, among others. He does not yet have an offer from Michigan, but one could be forthcoming. He’s a 3-star, the #48 cornerback, and #457 overall, but Michigan is looking at him as a receiver. He claims a 4.5 forty, a 4.37 shuttle, and a 32.4″ vertical. This is his official visit.

Joshua Sanguinetti – CB – Fort Lauderdale (FL) University School: Sanguinetti is a 5’11”, 171 lb. prospect with offers from Auburn, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma, and Oregon, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #21 safety, and #251 overall. This is his official visit.

Hit the jump for some 2020 and 2021 visitors.

Now that it’s (basically) the off-season once again, I can catch up on the ridiculous number of developments that have taken place over the last couple months in recruiting. Last week I did an update on the 2021 class (LINK), and here’s the 2020 edition.

In the meantime, please consider supporting the blog by doing some of your shopping through TTB’s Amazon links like this one:

COMMITMENTS

Nick Patterson – TE – San Antonio (TX) Christian: Patterson committed to Michigan (LINK).

DECOMMITMENTS

Tim Baldwin, Jr. – RB – Ashburn (VA) Stone Bridge: Baldwin decommitted from Michigan (LINK).

Denver Warren – DT – Aurora (IL) West: Warren decommitted from Michigan (LINK).

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2020

Sam Adams II – RB – Sammamish (WA) Eastside Catholic: Adams is a 6’2″, 200-pounder who’s the son of former mammoth Texas A&M and NFL defensive tackle Sam Adams. Adams II has offers from Ohio State, Texas A&M, and Washington, and he’s a 3-star, the #28 running back, and #341 overall in the country.

Maliq Carr – TE – Oak Park (MI) Oak Park: Carr is a 6’6″, 215 lb. prospect with offers from Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #95 wide receiver, and #524 overall. While he’s listed as a wideout, Michigan is recruiting him to play the tight end position, which makes sense for a guy who’s already 6’6″, 215 as a junior. He claims a 4.72 forty. As a junior in 2018, he caught 21 passes for 815 yards and 9 touchdowns, meaning he was averaging almost 40 yards per catch.

Lejond Cavazos – CB – Bradenton (FL) IMG Academy: Cavazos, originally from Texas, decommitted from Ohio State in the wake of Urban Meyer “retiring” and Ryan Day being named the new head coach. He’s a 6’0″, 186-pounder with offers from Alabama, Florida, Georgia, LSU, and USC, along with many others. He’s a 4-star, the #16 cornerback, and #183 overall.

Hit the jump for several more new offers and some guys who went off the board.
