Congratulations to all the former Wolverines that found homes in the NFL this weekend.  Nice to have an NFL Owner with his name on Michigan's Business School!  Also Jim Harbaugh and Mike Macdonald drafted zero former Wolverines. 


Not to be out done by the NFL Draft, Michigan landed 2 2026 commits including a QB.  For some reason Michigan seems to love the name "Brady" as a Michigan QB.  Brady Hart who was Michigan's 2026 QB decided to become at 2025 commit and headed to Texas A&M after Bryce committed to the Wolverines.  Now another Brady is headed to Ann Arbor:

4 Star QB Brady Smigel - A former FSU commit Brady is a 6'5 205 pound QB from California.  He always liked Michigan and started to get recruited by Chip Lindsey as soon as he took the job in Ann Arbor.  He is known as a pocket passer and a kid that can really spin it.  He is rated 4 stars to all the services and has a host of offers.  His top schools after leaving Florida State included South Carolina, Washington, and UCLA. 

3 Star Tariq Boney is 6'3 230 pound edge rusher from DC.  Who quickly learned that Michigan Football is already crowned as DE U.  Boney Toney (too early?) offer list includes: Georgia, Wash, WVU, CAL, Tenn, Wisconsin, Penn State, BC, and others.  

Welcome Brady and Tariq!
