Michigan football was seen as being dead in the water entering the month of June with just five commitments and ranking around No. 50 nationally. But seven pledges later, suddenly, the Wolverines are cooking with gas.
The maize and blue got four four-stars and three three-stars in the month of June, including four-stars S Kainoa Winston, DL Jaylen Williams, RB Donovan Johnson, WR Jacob Washington and three-stars RB Jasper Parker, C Kaden Strayhorn, and LB Chase Taylor. The Wolverines moved up in the 247Sports team rankings but ESPN doesn’t keep a running list like the recruiting services do.
So where does Michigan football rank in the eyes of ESPN now? It’s in a good place with room to go higherThere are several big names still out there for the taking. Michigan is in it for four-star running back Jordon Davison, who decides soon. Four-star linebackers Nathaniel Owusu-Boateng and Kamar Archie appear to be leaning towards the maize and blue, as does five-star offensive tackle Andrew Babalola, four-star tight end Andrew Olesh, four-star IOL Hardy Watts, four-star wide receiver Andrew Marsh, and three-star wide receiver Phillip Wright. They’re in it to flip Notre Dame commitment S Ivan Taylor and South Carolina CB commit Shamari Earls.
