Highlands Ranch (CO) Valor Christian QB Dylan McCaffrey

Following The Opening, 247 Sports updates its top 247 prospects for 2017 (LINK). Note that this is different from the 247 Composite rankings, which take into account all four major recruiting services. Notable movement for Michigan commits includes:

  • QB Dylan McCaffrey dropped from #26 to #30
  • OT Ja’Raymond Hall has dropped from #81 to #138 since April 2015
  • DE Corey Malone-Hatcher has moved up from #183 to #169 since April 2015
  • LB Joshua Ross has dropped from #111 to #177 since April 2015

2017 Recruiting Update: July 11, 2016

Kai-Leon Herbert 144

COMMITMENT

Plantation (FL) American Heritage offensive tackle Kai-Leon Herbert committed to Michigan (LINK).

OFF THE BOARD

Bradenton (FL) IMG Academy defensive end Robert Beal committed to Georgia. Beal was a one-time Notre Dame commit who decommitted several months ago. He’s one of several top prospects and Michigan targets to have transferred to IMG Academy for his senior season, though the Wolverines were out of the picture for him.

Murrieta (CA) Valley wide receiver Maurice Bell committed to Colorado. Not to be confused with New Jersey wide receiver Markquese Bell, Maurice talked about being strongly interested in the Wolverines, but nothing ever came close to happening between the two parties.

Houston (TX) Langham Creek running back Toneil Carter committed to Georgia. The #5 running back and #107 player in the country was one of my biggest wants in the 2017 class, but Michigan was never really involved.

Hit the jump for several more guys who made commitments this week, plus some random bits on The Opening and other news items.
