Buford (GA) Buford linebacker Mantrez Walker committed to Michigan (LINK).

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2025

Shamar Arnoux – CB – Roswell (GA) Centennial: Arnoux is a 6’0″, 165 lb. prospect with offers from Auburn, Florida State, LSU, and Tennessee, among others.

Dilan Battle – DT – Arlington (TX) Mansfield Timberview: Battle is a 6’2″, 315 lb. nose tackle prospect with offers from Miami, Texas, and Texas A&M. He said Michigan is “one of his dream schools” (LINK) so that’s good.

Dakorien Moore – WR – Duncanville (TX) Duncanville: Moore is a 6’0″, 180-pounder with offers from everywhere. He’s a 5-star, the #1 wideout, and #8 overall in the class of 2025. As a sophomore in 2022, he caught 44 passes for 764 yards and 6 touchdowns.

LaMason Waller III – WR – Hesperia (CA) Sultana: Waller is a 6’2″, 170 lb. athlete with offers from Georgia, Oklahoma, Oregon, Penn State, and Washington, among others. He’s a 247 Sports 4-star, the #9 athlete, and #99 overall. He was committed to Washington at one point.

Kendrick Bell, Wolverine

Kansas City (MO) Park Hill quarterback Kendrick Bell committed to Michigan back in October of 2022. Again, as I was in the throes of football season, I did not have time to put together a commitment post, especially of a player nobody really thought was a Michigan-level prospect at the time. Of course, that runs in his family, since his brother Ronnie Bell was a basketball player and not much of a football prospect until Michigan hopped in with an offer. Kendrick picked Michigan over UMass and Northern Iowa.

Bell is listed at 6’3″ and 180 lbs. As a senior in 2022, Bell completed 224/339 passes (72%) for 3,570 yards and 37 touchdowns. He also ran for 670 yards and 10 touchdowns.
