Michigan hosted several recruits for its clash with No. 1 ranked Oregon in The Big House over the weekend.

Here is a closer look at targets the Wolverines now lead for, according to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine.

WR Jamar Browder, Lake Worth (Fla.) Santaluces (2025)

A three-star prospect, Browder has been committed to NC State since June. However, Michigan extended an offer early in the fall and has made him a top priority over the last few months. Browder visited Michigan in September and returned this weekend. Now, Michigan is trending in the right direction to flip him from the Wolfpack. Both On3 VP of Recruiting Steve Wiltfong and I have logged predictions for Browder to switch his verbal pledge to U-M. The Wolverines have the commanding lead on the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine with a 98.3 percent chance to flip him. Browder was set to officially visit Missouri this weekend but is no longer making the trip.

TE Lincoln Keyes, Saline (Mich.) High (2026)

Michigan had the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine lead for Keyes going into the weekend and extended it with yet another strong visit. The Wolverines have 52.4 percent chance of keeping the four-star in-state prospect close to home. Michigan State is a distant second with an 11.9 percent chance of landing him. However, programs like Georgia and Ohio State may be bigger threats. Michigan has a loaded tight end board for next cycle and had two other four-star 2026 recruits at the position on campus this weekend. It will be interesting to see which prospects become true priorities. If Michigan does go all in for Keyes, he should end up in the class.

DB Elijah Dotson, Belleville (Mich.) High (2025)

The aforementioned Browder isn’t the only recruit Michigan is trending to flip following the big visit weekend. Both Wiltfong and I have logged predictions for Michigan to steal Dotson away from Pitt. The Wolverines now have a 58.5 percent chance of flipping the versatile four-star defensive back. Dotson was considered a heavy Michigan lean early in the process. However, the two sides went in different directions when former cornerbacks coach Steve Clinkscale made the leap to the NFL. Michigan and new secondary coach LaMar Morgan circled back this fall and have now hosted him on back-to-back weekends. Completing the flip could help U-M in its pursuit of five-star quarterback Bryce Underwood, who is his teammate at Belleville.
