COMMITMENTS

Daxton Hill – S – Tulsa (OK) Booker T. Washington: Hill re-committed to Michigan (LINK).

Cornelius Johnson – WR – Greenwich (CT) Brunswick: Johnson committed to Michigan (LINK).

OFF THE BOARD

Noah Cain – RB – Bradenton (FL) IMG Academy: Cain committed to Penn State. Michigan was working really hard on him early, and for some reason backed off as the process wore on.

Quavaris Crouch – LB – Charlotte (NC) Harding: Crouch somewhat inexplicably picked the Tennessee Volunteers. With a top three including Clemson, Michigan, and Tennessee, most people thought he would pick Clemson. Except he then supposedly eliminated them in the last week or two, taking a final-weekend visit to Tennessee. Michigan seemed to be running #3, but Tennessee . . . I mean . . . Tennessee?

Hit the jump for several more developments since the early signing period began.

2019

Spencer Brown – OT – Walled Lake (MI) Western: Brown is a 6’6″, 295-pounder who has been committed to Michigan State since July of 2017; he also has offers from Iowa, Miami, Michigan, and Pitt, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #42 offensive tackle, and #401 overall.

Steele Chambers – LB – Roswell (GA) Blessed Trinity: Chambers is a 6’2″, 215 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Georgia, Michigan, Notre Dame, and Ohio State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #30 athlete, and #340 overall. As a junior in 2017, he had 198 carries for 1,301 yards and 23 touchdowns; he also made 70 tackles, 6 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, and 1 interception.

Lance Dixon – LB – West Bloomfield (MI) West Bloomfield: Dixon is a 6’3″, 195-pounder with offers from Michigan, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #18 outside linebacker, and #286 overall. Right now 83% of the Crystal Ball picks are for MSU.

Dontay Hunter – DE – Westerville (OH) Central: Hunter is a 6’4″, 228 lb. prospect with offers from Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, and Pitt, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #36 strongside end, and #509 overall. He claims a 4.72 forty. There are 9 predictions for Kentucky, which are the only Crystal Ball picks so far.

Adisa Isaac – DE – Brooklyn (NY) Canarsie: Isaac is a 6’5″, 210 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Florida, LSU, Michigan, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #26 strongside end, and #304 overall.

Sam Johnson III – QB – Walled Lake (MI) Western: Johnson is a 6’3″, 195-pounder with offers from Boston College, Indiana, and Michigan, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #20 pro-style quarterback, and #670 overall. He’s a teammate of Spencer Brown (see above). Many thought he would commit to Michigan after the offer, but Cade McNamara may have beaten him to the punch and stolen his spot. Regardless, 61% of the Crystal Ball picks are in favor of Michigan at this point.

George Karlaftis – DE – West Lafayette (IN) West Lafayette: Karlaftis is a 6’5″, 260 lb. Purdue legacy who committed to the Boilermakers in October of 2017; he also has offers from Alabama, Clemson, Florida, Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #13 strongside end, and #171 overall.

Tre Mosley – WR – West Bloomfield (MI) West Bloomfield: Mosley is a 6’2″, 175 lb. prospect with offers from Boston College, Indiana, Michigan, and Michigan State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #91 wide receiver, and #679 overall. He’s a teammate of Dixon (see above), Paige, and Wheeler (see below).

Gabe Newburg – DE – Clayton (OH) Northmont: Newburg is a 6’5″, 230 lb. prospect with offers from Cincinnati, Michigan, Michigan State, Rutgers, and some MAC programs. He’s a 3-star, the #53 weakside end, and #799 overall. In the wake of his visit – which resulted in an offer – he is now favored to go to Michigan with 100% of the 247 Sports Crystal Ball picks.

Brandon Smith – LB – Mineral (VA) Louisa: Smith is a 6’5″, 215 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, and Virginia Tech, among others. He’s a 5-star, the #1 inside linebacker, and #19 overall. Some people have pegged him for defensive end, but he says he wants to play a linebacker, and Michigan is recruiting him as a linebacker. He’ll be visiting on April 3.

Dylan Wright – WR – Mesquite (TX) West: Wright is a 6’3″, 192-pounder with offers from Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Oklahoma, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #31 wide receiver, and #185 overall.

COMMITMENT

Loganville (GA) Grayson offensive tackle Trente Jones committed to Michigan (LINK).

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2019

Bellflower (CA) Mayfair safety Chris Adimora was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’1″, 195 lb. prospect with offers from Nebraska, Oregon, Texas, UCLA, and USC, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #23 safety, and #294 overall. I don’t get my hopes up for any California prospects, so I expect him to go to UCLA or USC.

Chicago (IL) Phillips Academy tight end Jahleel Billingsley was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’5″, 230-pounder with offers from Florida, Illinois, Nebraska, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #8 tight end, and #260 overall.

Westlake Village (CA) Oaks Christian running back Zach Charbonnet was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’1″, 192 lb. prospect with offers from Cal, Notre Dame, UCLA, and USC, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #19 running back, and #275 overall. As a junior in 2017, he ran the ball 265 times for 2,049 yards (7.7 YPC) and 23 touchdowns. He’s got a good combination of agility, burst, and power.

Hit the jump for several more offers and tidbits.
