Nicholas “Megatron” Marsh announced on Tuesday via his Twitter that he will be re-opening his recruitment. Marsh is a major in-state Michigan football target in the 2024 class, and Harbaugh may be able to sway him back to the Wolverines.

Nick Marsh is a four-star wideout in the 2024 class, and is ranked as the No. 56 player in the nation, the No. 10 wide receiver in his class, and the No. 2 recruit in the state of Michigan. According to Marsh, the Spartans are still one of his top schools, but he would like to re-open his recruitment to other schools as well. Here is more information about Marsh from On3:

Nick Marsh made an immediate impact on the varsity level, helping River Rouge (Michigan) High School to a state championship in his freshman season. He then continued to turn heads as a sophomore and a junior, earning the nickname “Baby Megatron” because of his ability to go up and get the football like former Detroit Lions star receiver Calvin Johnson. Marsh said he loves Johnson’s game and models his after the former NFL star. “Just catching the ball and getting upfield, showing how elusive I am running the ball, and seeing how I can run in open space is really what I’m trying to work on,” Marsh told 247Sports. “I feel like I’ve proved that I can catch the ball up top, run good routes and do a lot of other things.” Away from football, Marsh enjoys playing basketball and fishing. Marsh has a 3.0-grade point average and plans on majoring in engineering in college. His mother is Yolanda Wilson, and his favorite food is pizza.
