ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2018

Miami (FL) Central running back James Cook decommitted from Florida State. He’s a 4-star, the #3 running back, and #33 overall. At 5’11” and 181 lbs., he runs a 4.51 forty. The brother of Dalvin Cook, he was expected to continue the Cook legacy at FSU, but now it appears he’s likely to end up signing with Georgia.

Ontario (CA) Colony tight end Michael Ezeike was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’5″, 210 lb. prospect with offers from Arizona, Arizona State, Oregon, UCLA, and USC, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #17 tight end, and #413 overall. This appears to be a wide-open race right now, but Michigan does need a tight end or two in this recruiting class.

Valdosta (GA) Lonwdes offensive tackle Jalen Goss was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’5″, 250 lb. prospect with offers from Florida, Maryland, Mississippi State, and Oregon, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #66 offensive tackle, and #781 overall. He’s a teammate of 2018 running back Michael Barrett, whom Michigan is recruiting as a running back and Wildcat quarterback.

Hit the jump for a couple more new offers, along with several players who committed elsewhere.

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2019
Miami (FL) Central running back James Cook was offered by Michigan. Cook is a 5’11”, 190 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Miami, and USC, among others. He claims a 4.5 forty, but he also claims to be the brother of Florida State running back Dalvin Cook; that’s part of the reason why James committed to FSU in March. As a freshman in 2015, he ran 99 times for 709 yards and 8 TDs.

Fairburn (GA) Langston Hughes linebacker Charles Thomas was offered by Michigan. He’s a 6’0″, 213 lb. prospect with offers from Michigan, Toledo, Tulane, and West Virginia. Thomas is a solid, hard-hitting inside linebacker.
