Caleb Anderson, Wolverine
University of Louisiana-Lafayette cornerback Caleb Anderson committed to Michigan on Sunday evening.
Anderson is a 6’3″, 200 lb. corner who started twelve total games as a Ragin’ Cajun from 2020-2024 while playing in 39 total games. He made 18 tackles and 1 quarterback hurry this past season while earning a 63.7 grade from Pro Football Focus. He has 2 career interceptions, one of which he returned for a 54-yard touchdown against Rice in 2022 (video below):
Anderson will be a sixth-year senior in 2025. Coming out of Jackson (LA) East Feliciana, he was a high school quarterback who was a 3-star, the #67 athlete, and #1103 overall in his class. He got a COVID exemption in 2020 and then redshirted in 2021. He was coached by Michigan defensive backs coach Lamar Morgan when Morgan was at Louisiana-Lafayette in 2022-2023.
Michigan has been looking for help at cornerback after losing Will Johnson to the NFL and Aamir Hall to expired eligibility. The Wolverines have also lost a couple cornerbacks in the transfer portal, like Myles Pollard and Kody Jones, both of whom committed to Memphis. They did sign Tevis Metcalf from Arkansas, but he’s very young and unproven.
Along with Morgan’s experience coaching in Louisiana, Michigan also signed two Louisiana natives in the 2025 class (WR Jacob Washington and RB Jasper Parker) and has a Louisiana product in wide receivers coach Ron Bellamy.
