Michigan football recruiting: Jadyn Davis politely shutting down other programs

One of the biggest Michigan football recruiting wins under head coach Jim Harbaugh was the commitment of Jadyn Davis, who officially turned to Maize and Blue at the end of March. Despite his commitment to Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines, many programs are still pushing to flip Davis. However, the interest is not mutual.

Jadyn Davis’s commitment to Michigan football is unwavering

Jadyn Davis has been making major national headlines for Michigan football recruiting as of late. The Wolverines’ five-star quarterback commit recently earned a bid to the Elite 11 finals and has been named one of college football’s top committed recruits, among other accolades.

According to the 247 Sports composite rankings, which are the go-to rankings for college football recruiting, Davis is a five-star quarterback. He ranks as the No. 26 recruit nationally, the No. 4 quarterback in the class, and the No. 1 recruit in the state of North Carolina.

According to Davis, despite his outgoing and steadfast commitment to Jim Harbaugh‘s 2024 Michigan football recruiting class, teams are still testing the waters and looking to steal his commitment from the Wolverines.

However, Davis himself states that he is doing his best to redirect any outside interest as kindly as he can.

“I try to keep it respectful, but I tell them that I’m fully committed to the University of Michigan,” Jadyn Davis told ON3 earlier this month that. “I’ve tried to sway them to guys that I know that’s on my team that they should be looking out for. I don’t want them to have a bad taste in their mouth off interacting with me.”

“I know this is a business,” he continued. “Football works in mysterious ways. I go, ‘Look at this freshman right guard or this freshman receiver that’s going to be a dog in the future.’”

The future is bright in Ann Arbor

The Michigan football recruiting class currently holds the No. 2 ranking in the country. It has gathered an impressive 17 hard commitments, which is the highest number among all programs heading into the month of June. Jadyn Davis serves as the cornerstone of this class, and alongside other talented recruits, the Wolverines are building a future that holds the potential for a national championship run, further extending the legacy of the winningest college football program of all-time.
