2020 Recruiting Update: February 7, 2019

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2020

Ashton Allen – S – Potomac (MD) Bullis: Allen is a 6’2″, 185 lb. prospect with offers from Boston College and Maryland. He attends the alma mater of former Ohio State quarterback Dwayne Haskins, who was committed to Maryland at one time.

Kedrick Bingley-Jones – DE – Charlotte (NC) Providence Day School: Bingley-Jones is a 6’4″, 266-pounder with offers from Florida, Florida State, Georgia, and Oklahoma, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #11 strongside end, and #202 overall. He claims a 5.21 forty, a 4.88 shuttle, and a 31.5″ vertical.

Itayvion Brown – LB – St. Louis (MO) Lutheran North: Brown is a 6’3″, 210 lb. prospect with offers from Iowa, LSU, Missouri, and Texas A&M, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #36 athlete, and #455 overall. While he plays quite a bit of wide receiver in high school, I think he’s too stiff to remain at that position and will probably end up at linebacker or defensive end in college.

A lot of stuff happened today in the world of Michigan football. I don’t have time to write about it all because I woke up at 3:30 a.m. and worked until 8:30 p.m., so we’ll just stick with the roundup:

Presumed starting running back Chris Evans isn’t on the team anymore, so that’s awesome (LINK).

Former Michigan running back and running backs coach Tyrone Wheatley, Jr. will be the new head coach at Morgan State (LINK).

Quarterbacks coach Pep Hamilton will be coaching somewhere else next season (LINK).

The jerk who shined a laser on Tom Brady in the AFC Championship game didn’t get away with it (LINK).

The Detroit News asked a bunch of in-state recruits why they did (or did not) pick Michigan and Michigan State (LINK).

Bruce Feldman, from The Athletic, revisits the main characters from his Meat Market book (LINK).

This truly was the best commercial of the whole Super Bowl. I loved seeing the “old-timey” football players.

The 2019 #AdMeter winner is … the NFL! Its commercial, “The 100-Year Game,” was a tackle-filled celebration of current and retired players. https://t.co/8WZpLUvuQ5 pic.twitter.com/wJ1oAyyW0K
