Michigan football, Harvard quarterback commit

The University of Michigan has long been known as a school that competes with Ivey League schools in the classroom, though earlier this week, Jim Harbaugh brought the competition to the football recruiting trail as well. This week, the Michigan football quarterback room got even deeper as the Wolverines stole a 2023 quarterback from Harvard football. This week, 3-star Harvard quarterback commit Jack Grusser decommitted from his former school and announced that he is now a Wolverine.

Michigan football poaches 3-star Harvard quarterback Jack Grusser

You’d be wrong if you thought the 2023 Michigan football recruiting class was complete. On Monday, 2023 3-star Harvard quarterback commit Jack Grusster announced that he has flipped his commitment to Jim Harbaugh’s Michigan Wolverines. With this new late addition, an already-deep Michigan quarterback room has gotten even more extensive.

According to 247’s rankings, Grusser is the No. 89 quarterback in the 2023 class and the No. 29 recruit in the state of New Jersey. It is an unusual pickup for Michigan football, though a welcome one, to say the least.

Here is what the former Harvard quarterback had to say about his decision via his Twitter:

“After a lot of thought I have decided to decommit from Harvard and commit to the University of Michigan. I appreciate everything the Harvard coaching staff has done for me. Ready to get to work. Go Blue!”
