The month of July is apparently a terrible time to miss a week of recruiting updates for the current class, because over 40 Michigan targets pledged to schools over the past two weeks. To break it up a little bit, I parceled the news into two separate posts: today’s offensive recruiting update and a defensive update coming tomorrow morning.
Davison Igbinosun – CB – Ole Miss: Igbinosun is a 6’2″, 185 lb. prospect who will be a sophomore in 2023. He was a 4-star, the #21 cornerback, and #162 overall in the class of 2022. He played this past season at Ole Miss – where former Michigan assistant Chris Partridge was the co-defensive coordinator – and made 36 tackles with 5 pass breakups. With Michigan losing Gemon Green and D.J. Turner II to the NFL, the team has an open spot at corner across from Will Johnson.
