Hello Jerod Smith
4* DL from Connecticut. 247 doesn’t specify DE or DT. Had Bama and UGA offers. With the earlier commitment from Brady Prieskorn it’s a great day to be a Michigan Wolverine!
I believe this is where Long (ball) Johnson went to high school… I was wrong. It was Tarik Black.
Welcome home young man!
As foretold by the ballz.
This class already has 9 Top 250 players. The entire 2023 class had 5.
If this trend continues, I see no reason why Michigan can't win every single game for at least the next 30 years.
His brother is also top 250 as well but we are not in on him right ? Still appears to be 5-7 top250 uncommitted with leans or outright predictions to Michigan
We recently made his top 7
He reportedly wants to take official visits before deciding.
Looks like a great pick up! That's an amazing offer list.
Barring any commitments from Ohio State or Georgia, Michigan now has the #1 overall class according to 247.
Originally read this as "Barring any comments from Ohio State." Their recruits are a chatty bunch so it would have made sense too.
It's a good day when you can bust out the Rick Flair gif twice.
Would love to hear from Magnus on this kid. Based on build seems like a Wormley type coming out of high school?
Welcome to the Wolverine DL! Help create a wonderful view for Ohio State quarterbacks for years to come.
Brian Robinson (Denard’s 2nd cousin), come on down!
Great choice young man. Welcome.
Hell yeah!!!

Welcome aboard the M Train Jerod!!!
Now you need to convince your brother Jacob to get on board!!!
Go Blue!!!
"It likely bodes well for U-M's chances of landing his twin brother, edge Jacob Smith, who is graded just a tick above Jerod as the No. 230 player in the nation. Michigan recently made his top six, along with Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Nebraska and Notre Dame."
Another great pickup. Very impressive class being built here
Advanced techniques to disengage blockers, uses his hands very well, good leverage, positional flexibility, good feet and body coordination, LFG!
11 warriors they say Michigan is on a roll but will still end up with a 10-15 ranked class.
