Michigan Friday: The Michigan Staff is Starting To Make Up Ground With Instate Recruits

One of the biggest gaps when the new staff arrived in Ann Arbor was in instate recruiting.  The likes of Dantonio and Meyer have been recruiting these guys for a couple of years.   The Michigan staff hasn't and now has to put on a full court press to gain ground on the other programs.   The good news is neither OSU or MSU has any instate Michigan recruits committed yet. 

Michigan has been hosting guys for basketball games and now football practice.  

  • 4 star Cass Tech OG/DT Michael Onwenu who used to have OSU as his leader has cooled on the Buckeyes after the Mike Weber situation.  He has been visiting A2.

  • 4 star Detroit King WR Donnie Corley who hasn't had Michigan in his top 5, has visited A2 and now is warming to the coaches and the situation in A2.  Donnie has a list of offers including the likes of Alabama, LSU, OK, ND, OSU and many others.

  • 3/4 Star Farmington WR Desmond Fitzpatrick and Louisville commit as been to A2 twice recently and will be back for the Spring Game.

  • 4 star Plymouth OT Michael Jordan is a priority for the Michigan staff and is planning on camping in A2 for a day this summer.

  • 4 star Southfield RB Matt Falcon will visit A2 for a practice today. This will be his second visit in 2 weeks.
This seems like a very deep instate recruiting class.

Hey Bob or anyone else - do you feel there is any chance the Iowa QB really comes to Michigan?

For the love of God lets hope not. He's brutal.

Agreed. And he would be a one and done. I am sure HE probably wants to, but I doubt Jimmy shares much love back. Time will tell I guess
