ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2017
McCalla (AL) McAdory cornerback Malcolm Askew was offered by Michigan. Askew is a 6’0″, 175 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Notre Dame, and Ohio State, among others. He’s a 247 Composite 4-star, the #14 athlete, and #128 overall. Askew could very well play receiver at the next level (35 catches, 1,000+ yards, 10 TDs this year), but he is being looked at more as a corner (35 tackles, 8 pass breakups, 1 interception). It’s probably too tall of a task for Michigan to pull Askew out of SEC country, but you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.
Fort Lauderdale (FL) St. Thomas Aquinas defensive tackle Kivon Bennett was offered by Michigan. Bennett is a 6’3″, 255 lb. prospect with offers from Illinois, North Carolina State, and Ohio State, among others. Unranked so far, he’s a teammate of numerous players Michigan has offered. Bennett is just starting to get a lot of notice, and has pulled in his biggest offers just recently, so it’s safe to say that his recruitment will be picking up shortly. Michigan has not had much success recruiting St. Thomas Aquinas, so this will probably not go very far.
Hit the jump for a couple more new offers, a couple guys who went off the board, and some miscellaneous bits.
