Wolverine TV: Breaking down new four-star Michigan WR signee Karmello English

Michigan scored a big recruiting win on National Signing Day as it landed four-star wide receiver Karmello English.

The Phenix City (Ala.) Central product sided with Michigan over fellow finalist Kentucky. English originally committed to Auburn but backed out of his verbal pledge.

The Wolverine’s EJ Holland shares his thoughts on English and explains how the Wolverines were able to steal him from SEC country.

Michigan recruited English hard this fall, especially after Auburn parted ways with head coach Bryan Harsin. The Wolverines hosted English for an unofficial visit in October and sealed the deal this week.

At 5-foot-11, 182 pounds, English is ranked as the No. 25 wide receiver and No. 191 overall prospect nationally, per the On3 Consensus. He is also ranked as the No. 15 overall prospect in the state of Alabama.

English has an On3 NIL Valuation of $18.6K with 24K combined followers on Instagram and Twitter. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

Michigan now has 22 commits in its 2023 recruiting class — On300 offensive lineman Nathan Efobi, On300 offensive tackle Evan Link, On300 EDGE Enow Etta, consensus four-star offensive lineman Amir Herring, four-star running back Cole Cabana, four-star linebacker Semaj Bridgeman, four-star tight end Deakon Tonielli, four-star wide receiver Karmello English, three-star wide receivers Semaj Morgan and Fredrick Moore, three-star defensive linemen Brooks Bahr and Roderick Pierce, three-star running back Benjamin Hall, three-star EDGE Aymeric Koumba, three-star tight end Zack Marshall, three-star athletes Kendrick Bell, Breeon Ishmail and Jason Hewlett, three-star defensive backs Cameron Calhoun and D’Juan Waller, three-star linebacker Hayden Moore and three-star kicker Adam Samaha.
