Michigan Friday: Recruiting Trail Updates

As we go into this long holiday weekend, I wanted to wish all the Big House Blog inmates a Happy 4th of July and hope you get to spend time with friends and family! 

Michigan has been firecracker hot on the recruiting trail lately and having one of its best recruiting years ever.  With that said, they can't take everyone and some guys will pick other schools for reasons like a large NIL offer or maybe the path to playing time is a bit shorter.

Ohio 4-star CB Aaron Scott is a favorite of the coaches but was always going to be a tough pull out of Ohio.  The Michigan coaches are working hard and Scott has changed his commitment date from this weekend to the end of July.  The 3 finalists are expected to be Michigan, OSU, and Oregon. 

Texas 4-star giant of an OT Michael Uini who was trending hard to the Wolverines after a visit, now seems to be going to Georgia.  He announces today.  

Ohio/FL 4-star Edge Elias Rudolph is announcing on Monday (7:00 on IG) and is expected to pick the Maize and Blue! 👀 Rudolph is originally from Ohio and moved to Florida.  There is a rumor he could return to Ohio to play his senior year. 

Ohio/FL 4-star CB Jameer Grimsley is expected to announce on July 1. He is a 4-star athlete and probably a CB at the next level, Jameer just visited Ann Arbor on 6/23. Grimsley also transferred to Tampa to play his final year of High School Football. His final 3 are expected to be Michigan, Alabama, and Florida. There are zero predictions for this talented prospect, so his pick will probably be a surprise.

Looks like a number of recruiting services are giving RB Micah Kaapana a ratings bump! 

  • There is expected to be a number of big named on air talent laid off at ESPN today
  • What do you think of Michigan's new Jordan 12 low cleats?
