Last week I posted the expected visitors for the Ohio State game. In addition, the following recruits showed up in Ann Arbor on Saturday:
Nashville (TN) Montgomery Bell Academy OL Blake Bars: Bars will sign with Michigan in February.
Southfield (MI) Southfield WR Brandon Bean: Bean is a 6’2″, 200 lb. prospect for 2013. He attends the same high school as class of 2012 tight end Ron Thompson, whom Michigan offered early in the recruiting cycle.
Owensboro (KY) Apollo OT Hunter Bivin: Bivin is a 6’7″, 288 lb. prospect for 2013. Apollo is a rival of Madisonville (KY) North Hopkins, where 2012 commit Jeremy Clark played. Bivin’s only current offer is from Kentucky.
Mason (MI) Mason FB/LB Blake Cook: Cook is a 6’3″, 226 lb. prospect for 2012. He currently has zero FBS offers and could be a walk-on prospect for Michigan.
Warren (OH) Howland ATH Brendan Cope: Cope is a 6’4″, 185 lb. prospect for 2013. He currently has zero FBS offers, but with that size and a reported 4.45 time in the 40, that will likely change soon.
Lansing (MI) Eastern OL Josh Crim: Crim is a 6’6″, 270 lb. prospect for 2013. He currently has zero FBS offers.
Cincinnati (OH) Wyoming DT Terry Davis: Davis is a 6’4″, 270 lb. prospect who’s currently committed to North Carolina State. He attends the alma mater of Michigan defensive end Jibreel Black. Davis also has offers from Illinois, Indiana, Louisville, and South Florida, among others.
Lake Forest (IL) Lake Forest WR Bo Dever: Dever is a 6’2″, 195 lb. prospect who has already committed to walk on at Michigan in 2012.
Cincinnati (OH) Moeller OG Alex Gall: Gall is a 6’5″, 295 lb. prospect for 2013. He currently has zero FBS offers.
Akron (OH) St. Vincent-St. Mary WR Jordan Hargrove: Hargrove is a 5’11”, 170 lb. prospect for 2013.
Traverse City (MI) West OG Connor Hayes: Hayes is a 6’3″, 260 lb. prospect for 2014.
Muskegon (MI) Muskegon RB Juwan Lewis: Lewis is a 5’11”, 200 lb. prospect with offers from Buffalo, Toledo, and Western Michigan. He was hoping for a Michigan offer, but the commitment from Drake Johnson and the potential for Bri’onte Dunn to commit have presumably squashed most of that hope.
Canton (OH) Glenoak OG Steve Mathie: Mathie is a 6’5″, 270 lb. prospect for 2013. He already holds an offer from UCLA.
Youngstown (OH) Cardinal Mooney SS Marcus McWilson: McWilson is a 6’0″, 195 lb. prospect for 2013. He currently has zero FBS offers, but that will likely change in the coming months. He attends the alma mater of former Michigan safety Ray Vinopal.
Saline (MI) Saline LS Taybor Pepper: Pepper is a 6’5″, 180 lb. prospect who one “expert” considers to be the #6 high school long snapper in the country. Michigan’s starting long snapper is Tom Pomarico, who graduates after this season. Pepper may walk on in Ann Arbor and battle with starting short snapper Jareth Glanda for snapping duties.
Kansas City (MO) Park Hill DT Ondre Pipkins: Pipkins will sign with Michigan in February.
Bloomfield Hills (MI) Brother Rice LB Jon Reschke: Reschke is a 6’2″, 210 lb. prospect for 2013. He currently holds offers from Michigan State and Toledo; the Spartans are considered to be the leader, with Notre Dame somewhere close to the front, too.
Holland (MI) Holland LB Nathan Ricketts: Ricketts is a 6’3″, 215 lb. prospect with offers from Central Michigan, Toledo, and Western Michigan.
Warren (OH) Howland RB DeVeon Smith: Smith is a 5’11”, 215 lb. prospect for 2013. He currently has zero FBS offers, but he’s the younger brother of former Wisconsin running back Lance Smith (who was booted from the Badgers a few seasons ago because of a domestic violence charge).
Holland (MI) Holland ATH Corey Willis: Willis is a 5’10”, 170 lb. prospect for 2013. He could play wide receiver or cornerback in college, but he currently has zero FBS offers.
