Top CB target Jeremiah Lowe commits to Michigan

Michigan has scored an important win on the recruiting trail.

Three-star Lexington (Ky.) Fredrick Douglass cornerback Jeremiah Lowe committed to Michigan on Thursday afternoon. He picked the Wolverines over finalists Boston College, Kentucky and Marshall.

“They are breeding winners over there,” Lowe said. “They’ve had a lot of recent success. They do things right, and they pay a lot of attention to detail.”

Michigan co-defensive coordinator and cornerbacks coach Steve Clinkscale, who also serves as the area recruiter in Kentucky, led the way in this recruitment and closed with Lowe down the stretch.

“He’s a good dude,” Lowe said. “He keeps it 100. It’s like he’s talking to one of his own kids. That’s respectable.”

Lowe added that he sees himself as a perfect fit in Michigan’s defensive scheme.

“It’s very DB friendly,” Lowe said. “They play a lot of DBs. I see myself fitting in as a corner and nickel. When I’m out there, I like to dominate 1-on-1. Even if we are in zone, I think about dominating my matchup. I like to use my athleticism and technique.”

At 5-foot-11, 170 pounds, Lowe is ranked as the No. 148 cornerback and No. 1,357 overall prospect nationally, per the On3 Industry Ranking.
