Tyson Bacon – DT – Hoover (AL) Hoover: Bacon is a 6’3″, 263 lb. player who has been committed to Tennessee since last October, but he has officials lined up to Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Washington, and finally Tennessee. Michigan would like to be added to the list or to bump someone else off, because Bacon is a 4-star, the #32 defensive lineman, and #274 overall.
Dorian Barney – CB – Carrollton (GA) Carrollton: Barney is a 6’1″, 180 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Georgia, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Oregon, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #12 cornerback, and #111 overall. His lone official visit so far has been set up for Florida State. He has already been selected to participate in the Polynesian Bowl.
Brian Bonner – RB – Valencia (CA) Valencia: Bonner is a 6’1″, 185-pounder with offers from Georgia, Michigan, Notre Dame, and Washington, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #8 running back, and #99 overall. He has set an official for Washington.
Owings Mills (MD) McDonogh linebacker Nick Abrams II (4-star, #19 LB, #223 overall) was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’2″, 215 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Georgia, Oregon, and Penn State, among others.
Durham (NC) C.E. Jordan defensive tackle Noah Clark (4-star, #30 DL, #254 overall) was offered by Michigan. He has official visits set up for Duke, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Virginia, and Virginia Tech, so Michigan has some work to do here if they want to catch up. He made 75 tackles, 18 tackles for loss, and 4 sacks as a junior in 2024 and looks like a future nose tackle for someone.

Triston Abram – DE – St. Louis (MO) Christian Brothers: Abram is a 6’4″, 225-pounder who has been committed to Indiana. His offer list isn’t exceptional, but he’s a 3-star, the #52 edge, and #648 overall in the 2025 class. Michigan needs to replenish its edge rusher talent since Josaiah Stewart and Derrick Moore could both be off to the NFL without much proven depth behind them.
Jamar Browder – WR – Lake Worth (FL) Santaluces: Browder is a 6’3″, 205 lb. prospect who has been committed to North Carolina State. This is his second visit to Ann Arbor this season even though he’s still verbally pledged to NCSU. Browder is a 3-star, the #119 wide receiver, and #793 overall. This is an official visit.
Elijah Dotson – CB – Belleville (MI) Belleville: Dotson is committed to Pitt and has been since May, but Michigan has ramped up its efforts and is recruiting him as an “athlete” who could play offense or defense. He’s a 6’2″, 175-pounder who could play WR, CB, or S and is ranked as a 4-star, the #29 safety, and #296 overall in the 247 Composite. Dotson was at U of D Jesuit in Detroit for his first few years of high school, so he’s getting a little more attention now that he’s at the powerhouse in Belleville.
Christian Ingram – DT – Conyers (GA) Newton: Ingram is a 6’6″, 290-pounder with offers from Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, and others. This is an official visit to Ann Arbor, but he has other officials coming up, including to Georgia. Ingram is a 247 Sports 3-star and the #76 defensive lineman in the 2025 class.
