2019

Karsen Barnhart – OT – Paw Paw (MI) Paw Paw: Barnhart is a 6’4″, 282 lb. prospect with offers from Arizona State, Indiana, Michigan, Michigan State, and Nebraska, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #46 offensive tackle, and #427 overall. Right now all six Crystal Ball predictions are in favor of the Spartans.

Michael Fletcher – DE – Flint (MI) Carman-Ainsworth: Fletcher is a 6’6″, 240-pounder. He has offers from Alabama, Georgia, Michigan, Michigan State, and Wisconsin, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #28 strongside end, and #352 overall. Right now his Crystal Ball situation is 57% for Michigan State, 43% for Michigan.

Rod Heard – CB – Farmington Hills (MI) Harrison: Heard is 5’10”, 170 lbs. and committed to Northwestern last week. He’s a 3-star, the #89 cornerback, #918 overall, and #24 in the state. It’s unclear if he still plans to visit after his recent commitment.

Marcus Hicks – DE – Wichita (KS) Northwest: Hicks is a 6’5″, 236 lb. prospect with offers from Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Oklahoma, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #15 weakside end, and #255 overall. He actually visited March 18 into March 19, but he was supposed to visit later in the week, which is why I put him on this list. As a junior in 2017, he put up 63 tackles, 19.5 tackles for loss, and 10 sacks. Right now 100% of the Crystal Ball picks are for Oklahoma.
