Quavian Carter – S – Leesburg (GA) Lee County: Carter is a 6’4″, 200 lb. prospect with offers from Penn State and Tennessee, among others. I’m very surprised he doesn’t have a ton of other big offers, because he’s big and fast and aggressive. He might end up growing into a linebacker at the next level.

Jaylen Lewis – CB – Brownsville (TN) Haywood: Lewis is a 6’2″, 175-pounder with offers from Georgia, LSU, Oklahoma, and Ole Miss, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #46 cornerback, and #462 overall. Michigan has sensed a weakness in Tennessee with the Volunteers facing trouble from the NCAA, so the Wolverines are offering every decent prospect in the state to try to take advantage.

If you read this site or are into Michigan recruiting, you probably know the names at the top of this in-state list. Michigan has been pursuing all of these players for a while, and chances are good that the Wolverines land at least a couple of them, if not more.

1. Will Johnson – CB – Grosse Pointe (MI) South
Height: 6’3″
Weight: 190 lbs.
Notable offers: Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma, USC
Commitment: Uncommitted
247 Composite: 5-star, #4 CB, #8 overall
Analysis: Johnson is a cornerback who overwhelms fellow high schoolers with his size and strength. He plays corner, wide receiver, and wildcat quarterback for his high school team. He’s the son of former Michigan defensive back Deon Johnson, who played for the Wolverines in the early 1990s. Even so, he’s not guarantee to sign with Michigan. He also has interest in Ohio State and USC, and he and Santa Ana (CA) Mater Dei cornerback Domani Jackson – who is also high on Michigan – say they’re a package deal.
