The race for Big Ten Recruiter of the Year: Which Michigan coaches are in the running?

Michigan is gearing up for another important official visitor weekend in a couple of days with a number of top targets set to return to campus. As of Thursday, the Wolverines are ranked No. 5 overall on the On3 Industry National Team Recruiting Rankings with 19 verbal commitments which is tied for the most across all of college football. Three pledges, including Charlotte (N.C.) Providence Day quarterback Jadyn Davis, are listed in the Top 100 on the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media services. But with so many more uncommitted prospects left on the board for Michigan, its coaches continues to churn the necessary effort to make the 2024 class an historic group of talent. When examining who’s onboard and who’s in deep deliberation, there’s an opportunity for a U-M staffer to win Big Ten Recruiter of the Year honors. The Wolverine takes a look at the six Michigan assistants who could be in line to win the coveted award, based on the verbal commits they’ve already landed this cycle and who they could receive pledges from this upcoming summer and fall.
