Crystal Balls: Two positive, One negative
Coveted 5 star 2024 QB Jadyn Davis and 2024 4 star OL Luke Hamilton both tabbed for Michigan by Wiltfong.
Unfortunately, he also predicts 2023 DL Kayden McDonald to OSU.

I love to hear Luke Hamilton's quotes....I am surprised that we haven't heard more from top tier O-Linemen about how Michigan not only won the Joe Moore award last year, but they are making the claim again this year. Recent NFL returns with Ruiz, Runyan and Owenu are promising too. Obviously the guys that are on this line now have NFL potential as well.

It has seemed McDonald was trending elsewhere for a long time know. I believe that is why we have started targeting Wisconsin's DTs. I believe we have received a prediction for DT Pierce from On3 or rivals.

DL Brian Robinson also has CB's in favor of Michigan. Robinson and Hamilton are the #3 and #4 rated players in Ohio. I like getting players from Ohio. These are the guys that will want to beat OSU.

BooKoo,
Yeah - players from Ohio on Michigan's roster. Look at what happened to two of them, Howard and Woodson. Do you think any high school players in Ohio are familiar with those two?
Hoping other Ohio prospects take a look at how Michigan develops its talent.
October 31st, 2022 at 12:21 PM ^
This notion is very underrated. We need Ohio guys, and not the lower tier, because they have, by far, the most to lose.
October 31st, 2022 at 11:28 AM ^
Did OSU come out of nowhere with Kayden McDonald? I thought he was a Clemson/Florida lean
I also see that Arion Carter is predicted to go to Bama now over his Memphis commitment. 4 star LB prospect https://247sports.com/Player/Arion-Carter-46131120/

Yes they did. Seems like Clemson ultimately didn't push hard for him, but Michigan and Florida certainly did.
I think OSU missed on several of their DT targets and went all out for McDonald

The 2024 class looks like it can be filled with big time talent. The 2023 class feels like the 2018 one where you see several 4th-5th year program guys sandwiched between two top 10 classes.
October 31st, 2022 at 12:11 PM ^
I still think there will be some surprise signings by the end of the cycle. I dont think this will be a top 15 recruiting class, but it will be a top 20 class.
October 31st, 2022 at 12:22 PM ^
I'm waiting for them to be LB.
October 31st, 2022 at 10:08 PM ^
I think Michigan will pull together a pretty solid haul at most positions but I'm concerned about cornerback.

What's the best way to learn about what the schemes are like for teams that play on Sunday? Play for a college team that incorporates those schemes when you are learning in college and play on Saturday.
This staff is fantastic. Hoping that the talented prospective recruits, who fit into Michigan's culture and program, take the time to speak with the coaching staff and understand what Michigan is about.
Wishing each potential recruit and their family nothing but the best as they evaluate their options and reach a decision.
Go Blue!

Rivals and On3 have also projected Top 100 TE Brady Prieskorn (in the 2024 class) to Michigan.
Unfortunately looks like 4* OL DJ Chester is gonna lock in his commitment to LSU this week.
October 31st, 2022 at 12:19 PM ^
Love it we are getting back into Ohio with Hamilton.
October 31st, 2022 at 12:26 PM ^
DJ Chester was also CB’d to LSU as well :(
October 31st, 2022 at 12:45 PM ^
Did McDonald visit for the game this week? I thought Chester did.
October 31st, 2022 at 4:25 PM ^
I sure hope Luke Hamilton goes blue, but part of me believes that he is still wanting OSU offer. His father's twitter page (a football coach) has does the typical Buckeye NO M's. Be tough to see him end up blue.
