TRANSFERS

Jeffery Johnson – DT – Tulane: Johnson is a 6’3″, 312 lb. grad transfer from Tulane. He’s originally from Brookhaven (MS) Brookhaven and was a 3-star, the #39 defensive tackle, and #547 overall when he came out of high school in 2018. He made 44 tackles, 5 tackles for loss, and 2.5 sacks for the Green Wave in 2021. UPDATE: Johnson is no longer visiting since he committed to Oklahoma.

2022

Xavier Chaplin – OT – Seabrook (SC) Whale Branch: Chaplin is a 6’6″, 350-pounder who has been committed to Virginia Tech since last July. He also has offers from Georgia State, Louisville, and Michigan. He’s a 3-star, the #118 offensive tackle, and #1221 overall. UPDATE: Chaplin is postponing his visit to next weekend due to a family illness.

Andrew Paul – RB – Dallas (TX) Parish Episcopal: Paul is a 5’11”, 220 lb. prospect with offers from Clemson, Colorado, Michigan, and Michigan State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #89 running back, and #1211 overall. He took an official to Colorado in December, and this is an official visit to Ann Arbor.

2023

Cole Cabana – RB – Dexter (MI) Dexter: Cabana is a 6’0″, 180 lb. prospect with offers from Cincinnati, Louisville, Michigan State, and West Virginia, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #21 running back, and #362 overall. Michigan has yet to offer. I would expect Michigan to take at least two running backs in 2023, especially if they don’t land another in 2022, so Cabana might be a decent option for a second back.

2022

Ja’Kobi Albert – CB – Fairfield (AL) Fairfield Prep: Albert is a 6’0″, 175 lb. prospect with offers from Auburn, Georgia, Michigan, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #23 athlete, and #363 overall. I think his best fit might be at safety, but even though he’s already a borderline 4-star prospect, I think he’s underrated. This is an official visit.

Jacob Bostick – WR – Palatine (IL) Palatine: Bostick is a 6’3″, 170 lb. prospect with offers from Illinois, Iowa, Louisville, and Pitt. He’s a 3-star, the #83 WR, and #620 overall.

Sebastian Cheeks – LB – Evanston (IL) Evanston: Cheeks is a 6’3″, 210-pounder with offers from Michigan, Notre Dame, and Texas, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #10 linebacker, and #127 overall. So far 89% of the crystal ball picks are for Notre Dame. This is an official visit.

Darrius Clemons – WR – Portland (OR) Westview: Clemons is a 6’3″, 205 lb. prospect with offers from Auburn, Michigan, Notre Dame, and Penn State, among others. He’s a 4-star, the #20 wide receiver, and #151 overall. He’s a little bit stiff in his movements, but he could be a good outside receiver to take the top off the defense. This is an official visit. UPDATE: Clemons has canceled his visit.

Jahlil Florence – CB – San Diego (CA) Lincoln: Florence is a 6’1″, 180 lb. prospect with offers from Arizona, Michigan, and Syracuse, among others. He’s a 3-star, the #37 cornerback, and #386 overall. This is an official visit that was supposed to happen two weeks prior, but it was postponed.
