Michigan has numerous visitors on campus for its rivalry game against Michigan State. Two of them are Provo (Utah) Timpview four-star offensive tackle Spencer Fano and Gilbert (Ariz.) Highland four-star offensive tackle Caleb Lomu.

Both prospects are on their official visits to the Wolverines. Lomu is making his first visit since July 30, while Fano is back in Ann Arbor for the first time since April 22.

Lomu is the No. 209 overall prospect and No. 15 offensive tackle in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 3 player in Arizona.

On3 rates Lomu higher than other recruiting services, according to the Industry Comparison. Per the 2023 On300, he is the No. 94 overall prospect, No. 9 offensive tackle and No. 2 player in Arizona.

“I can’t wait to see what it is like this weekend,” Lomu recently told On3’s Chad Simmons. “It is a night game, it will be cool and I am excited to see what it is like. I want to feel what the atmosphere is like and see how it is in person. It is should be an awesome weekend.

Fano is the No. 150 overall prospect, No. 11 offensive tackle and No. 2 player in Utah, per the On3 Consensus. On3 rates him higher, according to the Industry Comparison, as the No. 1 player in Utah in the On300.

“Michigan has (offensive line coach Sherrone) Moore, who with his squad won the Joe Moore award last year,” Fano told On3’s Hayes Fawcett in September. “That alone says enough of how good of a coach he is. On my first visit to Ann Arbor, I was extremely impressed and am excited for my OV. Almost nowhere else has a culture of winning like Michigan and I would love to be a part of that.”

Fano, who is committing on Dec. 6, is deciding between BYU, Michigan, Oregon and Utah. Meanwhile, Lomu’s top schools include Arizona, Michigan, USC and Utah.

Spencer Fano and Caleb Lomu On3 Scouting Summaries

The following are the On3 Scouting Summaries for Spencer Fano and Caleb Lomu:

Fano: “Light-footed, technical offensive tackle. Always under control and a menace in the running and passing game. Plays with violence and has exceptional balance. Athleticism stands out when working in open space as a puller and when climbing to the second level. Comfortable in pass protection. Quality kick slide and footwork to live on an island at either tackle spot. Lacks ideal overall mass and strength throughout his frame. One of the few top offensive linemen nationally who does not have verified size or length. Biggest question mark for how soon he can see the field will be his ability to put on good weight. Must add power in order to play with necessary functional strength. Has a high upside due to his movement skills but a low floor as well if he can not get his weight up.”

Lomu: “Quick offensive lineman with room for growth who looks to be one of the more agile prospects at the position in the 2023 cycle. Measured over 6-foot-5 and around 265 pounds with wing-span around 6-foot-9. A flexible athlete and outstanding mover. Excels as a second level blocker, using his high-end foot quickness to navigate in space. Shows a strong punch with pop in his hands. Turned in a fantastic showing at Under Armour’s Los Angeles camp prior to his senior season. Flashed a smooth pass set and showed the ability to anchor against much heavier defensive linemen. Turned in one of the best shuttle times of any offensive lineman nationally (4.5 second range). Could end up at offensive tackle or sliding inside at the next level. Length is adequate but not elite for the position. Will need to continue adding mass once in a strength and conditioning program, but already shows signs of good functional strength.”
