Recruiting Update: Thanksgiving Style

COMMITMENTS

Jalen Perry – CB – Dacula (GA) Dacula: Perry committed to Michigan.

Amauri Pesek-Hickson – LB – Leawood (KS) Blue Valley North: Pesek-Hickson committed to Michigan (LINK).

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2019

Tommy Eichenberg – LB – Cleveland (OH) St. Ignatius: Eichenberg decommitted from Boston College. He’s a 4-star, the #19 inside linebacker, and #359 overall. He has earned offers from Michigan and Ohio State since he committed to B.C., so now it seems to be a battle between the Buckeyes and Wolverines. The crystal ball is 81% in favor of Ohio State, and with the recent commitment of Pesek-Hickson, I don’t believe this is going to go in Michigan’s favor. He also has an older brother at Notre Dame, but the Fighting Irish have not offered.

Dawand Jones – OT – Indianapolis (IN) Ben Davis: Jones is a 6’8″, 360 lb. prospect with offers from Florida State, Indiana, Michigan, and USC, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #85 offensive tackle, and #986 overall. Jones took an unofficial visit to Michigan last weekend, which is when the offer from the Wolverines was extended.

Darius Robinson – TE – Canton (MI) Canton: Robinson is a 6’6″, 250-pounder with offers from Colorado, Maryland, and Syracuse, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #48 strongside end, and #662 overall. Michigan offered him as a tight end, which he did play in high school, but for a heavy run team. As of the time he was offered on Tuesday, his crystal ball was 100% in favor of the Syracuse Orange.

MISCELLANEY

Jaylen Ellis – WR – Round Rock (TX) Cedar Ridge: Ellis named Michigan to his top six, including Arizona, Baylor, Cal, Houston, Michigan, and Tennessee. He’s a 3-star, the #56 wide receiver, and #438 overall. His crystal ball is 100% on Texas, though.

Kyle Ford – WR – Orange (CA) Lutheran: Ford named a top five of Colorado, Michigan, Oregon, USC, and Washington. He’s a 5-star, the #5 wide receiver, and #29 overall, but he tore his ACL during his senior season. He plans to announce on January 5, 2019.

Harrison Bailey – QB – Marietta (GA) Marietta: Bailey is announcing his commitment at 8:45 a.m. on November 29. He’s a 4-star, the #3 pro-style QB, and #59 overall in the 2020 class. The crystal ball is 90% in favor of Michigan.

It’s been a while since I posted a recruiting update, so here are some updates from October and the first half of November.

COMMITMENTS

Tulsa (OK) Booker T. Washington safety Daxton Hill committed to Michigan (LINK).

Everett (MA) Everett wide receiver/cornerback Mike Sainristil committed to Michigan (LINK).

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2019

Douglasville (GA) Douglas County center Parker Ball was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’4″, 275 lb. prospect with no other offers from FBS programs.

Cleveland (OH) St. Ignatius linebacker Tommy Eichenberg was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’3″, 225 lb. prospect who committed to Boston College back in June. He’s a 4-star, the #19 inside linebacker, and #358 overall. He visited Michigan for the Penn State game a few weekends ago. He’s the brother of Notre Dame offensive lineman Liam Eichenberg.

Dacula (GA) Dacula cornerback Jalen Perry decommitted from Georgia. He’s a 6’1″, 188-pounder whose crystal ball picks are currently 100% for South Carolina, but he took an unofficial visit to Michigan a few weeks ago and will visit officially this weekend. He’s a 4-star, the #19 cornerback, and #172 overall.
