5-31-17 Recruiting Update: French Revolution

Anaheim (CA) Servite safety Julius Irvin

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2018

Charlotte (NC) Mallard Creek defensive tackle Jordan Davis was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’6″, 300-pounder with offers from Florida, Miami, North Carolina, and North Carolina State, among others. He’s a 247 Composite 4-star, the #27 defensive tackle, and #297 overall. Mallard Creek is a pretty consistent producer of talent in the state of North Carolina, but Davis seems likely to stay in the south.

Anaheim (CA) Servite safety Julius Irvin was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’2″, 182 lb. prospect with offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, UCLA, and USC, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #25 safety, and #322 overall. Irvin looks like a combo safety who could play deep or come up into the box to support the run and the short passing game.

Ft. Lauderdale (FL) St. Thomas Aquinas defensive tackle Dejmi Dumervil Jean was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’4″, 367 lb. prospect with offers from Louisville, Maryland, Mississippi State, and Oregon, among others. Saying Dumervil Jean is planet-sized is a disservice; he’s built like a gas giant. A pure nose tackle prospect, he hails from perhaps the biggest talent-producing school in the Sunshine State, where Michigan has failed to make inroads despite many attempts to do so.

Hit the jump for another new offer and a couple guys who committed elsewhere.
