2024

Marquis Gallegos – S – West Hills (CA) Chaminade: Gallegos is a 6’1″, 175 lb. prospect with offers from Cal, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, UCLA, and USC, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #23 safety, and #252 overall. This is his official visit.

2024 Recruiting Update: February 21, 2022

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2024

Ny Carr – WR – Moultrie (GA) Colquitt: Carr is a 6’0″, 170 lb. prospect who’s a teammate of tight end Landen Thomas (see below). Carr is a speedy, decent sized athlete without much of a recruiting profile yet, but the offers are going to roll in based on his talent.

Adarius Hayes – LB – Largo (FL) Largo: Hayes is a 6’4″, 210 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Florida State, Miami, and Ohio State, among others. He’s a 247 Sports 4-star, the #6 linebacker, and #73 overall. He probably projects to outside linebacker in Michigan’s defense.

Eddy Pierre-Louis – OG – Tampa (FL) Catholic: Pierre-Louis is a 6’3″, 320-pounder with offers from Georgia, Oregon, Penn State, and USC, among others. He released a top four of middle-tier schools, but I’m guessing a run of recent offers will make him rethink that list in the near future.

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2021

La Jolla (CA) Bishop’s School quarterback Tyler Buchner

was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’2″, 200-pounder who was already committed to Michigan for lacrosse, and now he has a football offer. UCLA has also offered him for football.

Monroeville (PA) Gateway running back Derrick Davis, Jr. was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’0″, 175-pounder with offers from Penn State, Pitt, and West Virginia. He grew up as an Alabama fan, and his dad played at Michigan State. So . . . I have a hard time seeing this go in Michigan’s direction.

West Lafayette (IN) West Lafayette linebacker Yanni Karlaftis was offered by Michigan. Karlaftis is a 6’3″, 205 lb. outside linebacker, and he’s the brother of 2019 defensive end George Karlaftis, a Purdue commit. If you’ve not familiar with the story of the Karlaftis family, it’s a very interesting – and sad – tale. They grew up in Athens, Greece, after their father got two degrees, an undergrad at Miami-FL and a Ph.D at Purdue. Their dad tragically passed away in 2014 after the family moved from Greece to West Lafayette, IN. Here’s a more in-depth article if you’re interested (LINK).
