2020
Reece Atteberry – OT – Aurora (CO) Eaglecrest: Atteberry is a 6’5″, 280 lb. prospect with offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Michigan, and Nebraska, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #8 center, and #405 overall. This is an official visit.
Beau Brade – S – Clarksville (MD) River Hill: Brade is a 6’0″, 180 lb. prospect who committed to Maryland on June 13; he also has offers from Michigan and Pitt, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #56 safety, and #957 overall. This was supposed to be an official visit, but his commitment to the Terrapins may call off the visit. UPDATE: Brade is not visiting.
Jay Brunelle – WR – Worcester (MA) St. John’s: Brunelle is a 6’1″, 200 lb. prospect with offers from Boston College, Michigan, Notre Dame, and UCLA, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #136 wide receiver, and #820 overall. He’s a teammate of Eamonn Dennis (see below). This is an official visit.
Blake Corum – RB – Baltimore (MD) St. Frances: Corum is a 5’9″, 180-pounder with offers from LSU, Michigan, Ohio State, and USC, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #17 running back, and #201 overall. Three teammates are committed to Michigan (Nikhai Hill-Green, Micah Mazzccua, and Osman Savage), and Corum’s crystal ball picks are all for Michigan.
Eamonn Dennis – RB – Worcester (MA) St. John’s: Dennis is a 5’10”, 173 lb. prospect with offers from Duke, Michigan, and Syracuse, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #33 athlete, and #482 overall. Michigan is looking at him as a potential running back/slot receiver combo. This is an official visit.
Elijah Gaines – CB – Alexandria (VA) Episcopal: Gaines is a 6’3″, 200 lb. prospect with offers from Michigan, Notre Dame, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #50 athlete, and #506 overall. Episcopal is where Michigan defensive end Luiji Vilain spent the end of his high school career after moving from Canada.

DECOMMITMENT
Kalil Branham – WR – Columbus (OH) Northland: Branham decommitted from Michigan (LINK).
Marcellus Moore – RB – Plainfield (IL) North: Moore is a 5’8″, 165 lb. prospect with offers from Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri, and Ole Miss, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #54 running back, and #723 overall. He claims a 4.29 forty, a 34″ vertical, and a 10.31 in the 100 meters. Please watch his highlight video and think about Josh Gattis’s #speedinspace mantra:
Sawyer Racanelli – LB – Brush Prairie (WA) Hockinson: Racanelli is a 6’3″, 200-pounder with offers from Cal, Oregon State, and UCLA. Shortly after he got offered by Michigan, the Washington Huskies jumped in with an offer, which immediately turned into a crystal ball pick coming in for the Huskies. He’s a 3-star, the #27 athlete, and #348 overall. I imagine he’ll probably end up in Seattle, but he’s an intriguing WR/LB/S combo.

2020
Brian Branch – WR – Tyrone (GA) Sandy Creek: Branch is a 6’0″, 180 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Florida, Florida State, and Oklahoma, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #17 safety, and #227 overall.
Maliq Carr – TE – Oak Park (MI) Oak Park: Carr is a 6’6″, 230 lb. prospect with offers from Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #76 wide receiver, and #428 overall. His crystal ball is a mixed bag right now. While he insists he’s a wide receiver, he will probably outgrow that position in the long-term.
Jaden Dottin – WR – Suffield (CT) Suffield Academy: Dottin is a 6’3″, 185 lb. prospect with offers from Michigan, Penn State, and Pitt, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #60 wide receiver, and #316 overall. He claims a 4.88 forty, a 4.33 shuttle, and a 31.6″ vertical. His crystal ball is 100% for Penn State right now.
Ty Hamilton – DE – Pickerington (OH) Central: Hamilton is a 6’3″, 250-pounder with offers from Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, and West Virginia, among others. He’s a 247 Sports 3-star, the #39 strongside end, and #743 overall. He plays for the alma mater of former Michigan defensive end Taco Charlton.
