Top-100 recruit Darrius Clemons commits to Michigan
Oregon’s top prospect is heading to the Great Lakes.
Portland (Ore.) Westview four-star wide receiver Darrius Clemons has committed to Michigan.
Clemons is the No. 98 overall player in the country, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
The 2022 On300 is higher on Clemons than the On3 Consensus, ranking Clemons at No. 47 in the nation.
On3 also ranks him as the fifth-best wide receiver in the country behind only Frisco (Texas) Liberty Five-Star Plus+ Evan Stewart, Nashville Pearl-Cohn five-star Barion Brown, Garland (Texas) four-star Jordan Hudson and Calera (Ala.) four-star Kobe Prentice

It was originally believed that Clemons would be choosing between Auburn and Oregon, with the home-state Ducks believed to have the edge.
However, Mario Cristobal leaving Oregon for Miami changed everything for Clemons, and the Wolverines took advantage of the opportunity and made their move.
Michigan had a 78.4% chance of landing Clemons according to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine (RPM).
RPM was released to the public on Friday. The On3 engineering group teamed up with Spiny.ai to create the industry’s first algorithm and machine learning-based product to predict where athletes will attend college.
It factors in machine learning, expert predictions, social sentiment, visits, and historical trends. However, expert predictions are still a big piece of the RPM equation.
