Just like last week, I’m publishing a “visitors list” of players who were supposed to visit this weekend. I realize they’re not visiting due to the coronavirus, but it still gives an indication about what players are prioritizing Michigan.
2021
Kechaun Bennett – DE – Suffield (CT) Suffield Academy: Bennett is a 6’4″, 220-pounder with offers from Duke, Miami, Michigan, and Notre Dame, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #22 strongside end, and #320 overall. In case you don’t remember, Suffield Academy is where Brad Hawkins spent his prep year before ending up at Michigan.
Louis Hansen – TE – Needham (MA) St. Sebastian’s: Hansen is a 6’4″, 222 lb. prospect with offers from Boston College, Georgia, Iowa, and Michigan, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #8 tight end, and #187 overall. Thomas Fidone is reportedly Michigan’s top priority at the position, but Michigan wants to take two, and Hansen is high on the list.
Najee Story – DE – Solon (OH) Solon: Story is a 6’4″, 235-pounder with offers from Alabama, Michigan, and Ohio State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #17 strongside end, and #277 overall. The current crystal ball leader is, unsurprisingly, the home-state Buckeyes.
Kechaun Bennett – DE – Suffield (CT) Suffield Academy: Bennett is a 6’4″, 215-pounder with an offer from Tennessee. Suffield is the alma mater of Michigan safety Brad Hawkins.
T.J. Bollers – DE – Tiffin (IA) Clear Creek Amana: Bollers is a 6’3″, 241 lb. prospect with offers from Iowa, Iowa State, and Minnesota, among others. He’s a 247 Sports 4-star, the #14 weakside end, and #207 overall. As a sophomore in 2018, he made 45.5 tackles, 13 tackles for loss, and 4 sacks.
Naquan Brown – DE – Virginia Beach (VA) Ocean Lakes: Brown is a 6’3″, 200 lb. prospect with offers from Penn State, Pitt, and Virginia, among others. He’s a 247 Sports 4-star, the #7 weakside end, and #103 overall.
