2017 Recruiting Update: July 11, 2016
COMMITMENT
Plantation (FL) American Heritage offensive tackle Kai-Leon Herbert committed to Michigan (LINK).
OFF THE BOARD
Bradenton (FL) IMG Academy defensive end Robert Beal committed to Georgia. Beal was a one-time Notre Dame commit who decommitted several months ago. He’s one of several top prospects and Michigan targets to have transferred to IMG Academy for his senior season, though the Wolverines were out of the picture for him.
Murrieta (CA) Valley wide receiver Maurice Bell committed to Colorado. Not to be confused with New Jersey wide receiver Markquese Bell, Maurice talked about being strongly interested in the Wolverines, but nothing ever came close to happening between the two parties.
Houston (TX) Langham Creek running back Toneil Carter committed to Georgia. The #5 running back and #107 player in the country was one of my biggest wants in the 2017 class, but Michigan was never really involved.
Hit the jump for several more guys who made commitments this week, plus some random bits on The Opening and other news items.
