He took an official visit to Michigan this past weekend, just a couple days after being offered by the Wolverines.

Dunlap (IL) Dunlap tight end Josiah Miamen was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’4″, 225-pounder with offers from Illinois, Iowa, Northwestern, Notre Dame, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #64 weakside end, and #912 overall, though the Wolverines are looking at him as a tight end. He earned his offer at Michigan’s camp a week ago, and then he took an unofficial visit this past weekend. Steve Wiltfong subsequently put in a crystal ball pick for Michigan.

Hit the jump for several more updates from the past week.

Albany (LA) Albany defensive tackle Latrell Alexander was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’2″, 285 lb. prospect with offers from Houston, Kentucky, and Louisiana-Lafayette, among others. He’s currently unranked, and it’s rare to uncover an unranked player with Power Five offers at this point in the recruiting cycle.

Fairfield (OH) Fairfield tight end Erick All was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’4″, 225-pounder with offers from Iowa, Kentucky, Louisville, and Wisconsin, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #27 tight end, and #773 overall. Along with Gary Cooper (see below), these two new tight end offers after word started leaking out that top tight end target Luke Deal might end up going to Clemson instead of picking the Wolverines.

Miami (FL) Columbus tight end Gary Cooper was offered by Michigan. At 6’3″ and 230 lbs., he has offers from Florida, Indiana, Oklahoma, and Ole Miss, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #48 tight end, and #1282 overall. He attends the alma mater of Michigan linebacker Josh Uche.
