ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2024

T.J. Lindsey – DT – Bryant (AR) Bryant: Lindsey is a 6’6″, 260 lb. prospect with offers from Arkansas, Arkansas State, Georgia, Notre Dame, Tennessee, and Texas A&M, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #27 edge, and #402 overall, but I think he will end up playing defensive tackle at the next level.

L.J. McCray – DT – Daytona Beach (FL) Mainland: McCray is a 6’5″, 255-pounder with offers from Auburn, Florida, and Florida State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #39 defensive lineman, and #432 overall.

Carter Nelson – TE – Ainsworth (NE) Ainsworth: Nelson is a 6’4″, 205 lb. tight end target with offers from Auburn, Iowa, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #9 tight end, and #187 overall. Michigan doesn’t send out many offers to kids playing eight-man football, so here’s a special treat:

Xavier Porter – DT – Tampa (FL) Catholic: Porter is a 6’2″, 265-pounder with offers from Kentucky, Tennessee, UCF, and UCF, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #36 defensive lineman, and #392 overall.

OFF THE BOARD

T.J. Capers – LB – Miami (FL) Northwestern: Capers committed to Louisville. He’s a 5-star, the #2 edge, and #7 overall in 2024.

Peyton Woodyard – S – Bellflower (CA) St. John Bosco: Woodyard committed to Georgia. He’s a 4-star, the #2 safety, and #29 overall.

2023

Emilio Duran – K/P – Toledo (OH) Ottawa Hills: Duran is a 6’0″, 185 lb. kicker/punter combo. He’s the #2 punter and the #10 kicker in the class of 2023, according to Kornblue Kicking.

Spencer Fano – OT – Provo (UT) Timpview: Fano is a 6’5″, 270 lb. prospect with offers from LSU, Michigan, Oregon, and USC, among others. He’s a 247 Sports 4-star, the #4 offensive tackle, and #40 overall.

Sidikiba Kaba – DT – Columbus (OH) KIPP: Kaba is a 6’4″, 260 lb. prospect who was recently offered by Michigan; he also has offers from Duke, West Virginia, and several MAC schools. He’s a 247 Sports 3-star and the #150 defensive lineman. His teammate Cameron Frazier was also offered by Michigan but did not visit with Kaba.

T.J. Metcalf – S – Pinson (AL) Valley: Metcalf is a 6’1″, 180-pounder with offers from Florida State, Miami, Michigan, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #39 safety, and #468 overall.

2024

Marquis Gallegos – S – West Hills (CA) Chaminade: Gallegos is a 6’1″, 170-pounder with offers from Notre Dame, USC, Washington, and a few others. He’s a 247 Sports 3-star and the #29 safety.

Nick Marsh – WR – River Rouge (MI) River Rouge: Marsh is a 6’3″, 195 lb. prospect with offers from Michigan, Michigan State, Notre Dame, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 247 Sports 4-star, the #11 wide receiver, and #76 overall.

Jaheim Merriweather – S – Gallatin (TN) Gallatin: Merriweather is a 6’3″, 185 lb. prospect with offers from Kentucky, Louisville, and Mississippi State, among others. UPDATE: Merriweather picked up an offer on the visit.

Luca Puccinelli – TE – Richmond (VA) Benedictine: Puccinelli is a 6’7″, 225-pounder with offers from Duke, East Carolina, and Virginia Tech. He came on his visit and left without an offer, but there’s still time for Michigan to extend an offer since he’s a 2024 recruit. Puccinelli is a 247 Sports 3-star and the #17 tight end in his class.

Peyton Woodyard – S – Bellflower (CA) St. John Bosco: Woodyard is a 6’2″, 188 lb. prospect with offers from Alabama, LSU, Michigan, Ohio State, Oregon, and USC, among others. He’s a 247 Sports 4-star, the #3 safety, and #31 overall.

ADDED TO THE BOARD: 2022

Quavian Carter – S – Leesburg (GA) Lee County: Carter is a 6’4″, 200 lb. prospect with offers from Penn State and Tennessee, among others. I’m very surprised he doesn’t have a ton of other big offers, because he’s big and fast and aggressive. He might end up growing into a linebacker at the next level.

Jaylen Lewis – CB – Brownsville (TN) Haywood: Lewis is a 6’2″, 175-pounder with offers from Georgia, LSU, Oklahoma, and Ole Miss, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #46 cornerback, and #462 overall. Michigan has sensed a weakness in Tennessee with the Volunteers facing trouble from the NCAA, so the Wolverines are offering every decent prospect in the state to try to take advantage.

Hit the jump for more.
