Recently, Michigan football hosted major four-star Ohio target Aaron Scott, one of the top-ranked recruits in his class and a top player in the state of Ohio. According to Jacob Oden, a current four-star commit for the Wolverines, the Maize and Blue are poised to make a strong impression on Scott and potentially secure his commitment in the future.

Both Aaron Scott and Bryce West, the two highest-rated recruits in Ohio, are high-priority targets for the Michigan Wolverines. This week, Bryce West is expected to make a return visit, as we mentioned in our coverage yesterday, while Aaron Scott recently completed an official visit to Ann Arbor with the Wolverines.

Securing the commitment of Aaron Scott, a four-star composite target for the Maize and Blue, would be a significant accomplishment for Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines. Jacob Oden, a four-star in-state recruit who is already committed to Michigan football, believes that his Wolverines made a great impression with Scott, and currently are in the lead.

A new commit coming for the Maize and Blue?

Jacob Oden has been a committed member of the Michigan football program for a considerable period and has played a significant role in the team’s 2024 class, which currently holds the No. 2 ranking nationwide. He has emerged as one of the vocal leaders within this class and fully supports Michigan’s strong pursuit of both Bryce West and Aaron Scott.

Recent reports indicate that Michigan football is in an excellent position regarding Aaron Scott, despite the Ohio State Buckeyes having the opportunity to host both Scott and West for their final visit next weekend. The Wolverines have been steadily building momentum with both recruits for several months, and it seems that this momentum is yielding substantial results for the Maize and Blue as the recruitment process nears its conclusion.

Considering these reports, along with the optimism expressed by Michigan football commit Jacob Oden, it appears that Jim Harbaugh’s team is on the verge of securing a significant commitment or two from Ohio in the near future. While it may be seen as optimistic thinking, it undoubtedly presents an intriguing development for Michigan fans to monitor throughout the summer.

Providence Day (NC) is now six games into the 2023 high school football season, and so far, elite Michigan football quarterback commit Jadyn Davis (2024 recruiting class) is yet to throw an interception. Last Friday, Davis and his team won yet again, improving to 5-0 on the year, with the future Wolverine posting another impressive stat line and improving his season numbers once again.

Michigan football quarterback commit continues to impress

Jadyn Davis is an elite Michigan football quarterback commit, there is no doubt about that. While Davis was once a five-star, he was recently moved down (during the spring) in the rankings to four-star status, which is something that feels likely to change if he continues to play at this level.

Jadyn Davis posts another head-turning stat line

Last Friday, ahead of his future team’s victory over Rutgers, Jadyn Davis led Providence Day High School to yet another blowout victory. Once again, Davis pitched a near-perfect ball game, further bolstering his incredible 2023 season stat line. He completed 15 of his 18 passes (over 83% completion) for a whopping 277 yards and a trio of touchdowns with no interceptions.

Per MaxPreps, Jadyn Davis is now 85 for 111 (nearly 77% completion) for 1,485 passing yards, 17 passing touchdowns, and no interceptions. Additionally, Davis has one rushing touchdown this fall.

Michigan football 2024 recruiting class is in good hands

Right now, Davis remains a four-star; however, as the future Michigan football quarterback continues to shine, expect his rankings to rise ahead of National Signing Day for the 2024 recruiting class.

Michigan football, Jordan Marshall, 2024 recruiting class

If you follow our recruiting coverage, you likely already know who I am about to talk about — elite Michigan football commit Jordan Marshall (RB), the No. 1 commit in the Wolverines’ 2024 recruiting class. Marshall, a four-star RB and the No. 2 player in the state of Ohio (On3), had himself yet another impressive game last night, breaking the 100+ yard mark on the ground for the sixth-straight game this fall.

Elite Michigan football commit Jordan Marshall goes off once again

Last night, Jordan Marshall played in his sixth high school football game of his senior season. Once again, Marshall went off, breaking the 100-yard mark and more en route to his team’s third victory of the 2023 season.

Marshall, a running back, is an elite Michigan football commit in the 2024 recruiting class and has truly been proving his insane talent level throughout the season. Last night, once again, Marshall impressed, rushing for 131 yards on 16 carries (7.9 yards per carry) and another touchdown during his team’s win. He also hauled in a pass for an additional three yards.

The 2024 recruiting class is looking good for the Wolverines

On the season, Jordan Marshall has now ran for over 100 yards and scored at least one touchdown in every game this season, which has many Michigan football fans buzzing about the future of the program.

Jordan Marshall is currently rated as a four-star commit by On3 — he ranks as the No. 31 player nationally, the No. 2 running back in his class, and the No. 2 player in the state of Ohio.

The Wolverines are one of the five remaining teams for Brian Robinson, a blue-chip edge rusher from Ohio, who is reportedly close to making a college decision. Robinson, who was once a prominent four-star Michigan football target in the 2024 recruiting class, was initially strongly leaning towards Michigan, but now it appears to be more uncertain. His commitment would be a significant and unexpected acquisition for Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines.

Four-star Michigan football target Brian Robinson close to a final call

According to recent reports, Brian Robinson is nearing a decision and aims to conclude his recruitment within the next week or so. Robinson is currently ranked as the No. 131 recruit in the 2024 recruiting class. Given that the Wolverines have recently lost a substantial amount of talent on the defensive side of the football, especially at edge rusher, Robinson could be a major addition for Jim Harbaugh.

It doesn’t appear that Robinson is favoring the Wolverines right now, although Michigan football recruiting has seen significant changes recently, so anything is possible. At one point this year, it seemed highly likely that Ann Arbor would be Robinson’s eventual destination; however, his recruitment has become much more complicated in recent months.

If Jim Harbaugh can land Robinson, it would be huge for the 2024 recruiting class

The remaining schools in contention, aside from Michigan football, are Maryland, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Penn State. According to the RPM, Robinson’s preferred landing spot right now is the Kentucky Wildcats, with the Maize and Blue firmly in contention at the No. 2 spot.

As per the On3 industry rankings, Robinson is a highly sought-after four-star Michigan football target, ranking as the No. 131 player nationally, the No. 9 edge rusher in the 2024 recruiting class, and the No. 5 player in the state of Ohio.
