Aaron Chiles is a highly touted prospect and is being pursued by many huge programs, such as Michigan, Penn State, Florida, Clemson, Maryland, and others. The Wolverines were already in the lead for Chiles heading into this weekend’s visit; however, on Sunday, Michigan’s lead appeared to grow even more.

Steve Wiltfong of 247 Sports — who is 100% accurate (67/67) thus far in the 2024 class — predicts that Chiles will land in Ann Arbor when the time comes to commit. Steve Lorenz of The Michigan Insider also put in a crystal ball for Chiles to commit to Michigan on Saturday.

According to 247 Sports, Aaron Chiles is a 6-3, 220-pound linebacker from Our Lady Good Counsel High School in Olney, MD. Chiles is rated as a four-star linebacker prospect, and is ranked as the No. 88 player in the 2024 class, the No. 7 linebacker in his class, and the No. 1 player in the state of Maryland. During Chiles’s 2022 season, he recorded 74 tackles with 10 sacks, 15 tackles for loss, forces two fumbles, and recovered two fumbles.

On Tuesday, Michigan football landed the highest rated recruit in its class so far: four-star running back Jordan Marshall, who picked the Wolverines over the Buckeyes this week. The day after, Michigan landed another four-star from Ohio: Ben Roebuck, an offensive tackle from St. Edward High School.

  • Jordan Marshall (RB)

ANN ARBOR, MI — As many already know, the Michigan Wolverines are starting to get red hot on the 2024 recruiting trail. Over the past 48 hours, two major four-star Ohio recruits have committed to Michigan football, and recently, the Wolverines landed another huge crystal ball for a 247 Sports four-star wide receiver recruit.

On Tuesday afternoon, 247 Sports director of recruiting Steve Wiltfong placed a massive crystal ball for the Michigan football team. According to Wiltfong (and others), the Wolverines are set to land Channing Goodwin, a top-ranked player in North Carolina.

According to 247 Sports, Goodwin is rated as a four-star recruit and ranks as the No. 241 player in the 2024 recruiting class, the No. 38 wide receiver in his class, and the No. 7 player in the state of North Carolina. Wiltfong is not the only insider predicting Goodwin to Michigan, either; so far, Goodwin has four crystal balls, all of which are for the Michigan football program.

In addition to 247’s crystal balls, the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine gives the Michigan Wolverines a 97.3% chance of landing the four-star wideout. As Michigan continues to prove that it can successfully throw the ball and win titles, the Wolverines will keep landing some top-ranked receivers and quarterbacks; now, Michigan football needs to turn the crystal ball predictions into a full on commitment from Goodwin.

ANN ARBOR, MI — On Wednesday, the Michigan Wolverines landed yet another massive commitment. As of late, the Michigan football team has been seeing tons of great recruiting news — from major crystal balls to a series of huge commitments, Jim Harbaugh and his Wolverines are getting back on the saddle when it comes to high school recruiting. Today, Michigan landed a four-star offensive lineman from the state of Ohio.

Ben Roebuck — a four-star offensive tackle from St. Edward High School in Ohio — has committed to the Michigan football team. Roebuck is a massive offensive tackle recruit; he stands at 6-foot-7 and weighs in at 320-pounds, and is ranked as the No. 12 player in Ohio and No. 31 offensive tackle by Rivals.

Here is what the four-star lineman had to say about Michigan football and why he committed (per On3):

“It really just felt like home. I’ve been to the majority of the Big 10 schools and seen everything and the way Michigan just does it is better. They go all out for everything that they do. After being there you really understand why they’re the winningest program ever and that they’re going to keep it that way.

“I’d say I’m closest with either Coach Clink or Coach Moore. Coach Clink’s one of my favorite coaches I’ve ever met. He’s all around a great dude. Coach Moore is the one who offered me and who I committed with and he’s been on me for months now about committing and it finally paid off … I was an OSU fan growing up, but then I grew up and realized that Michigan was the place to be. Go Blue.”
