Watch and listen to Holland and Libby share the latest on Michigan above.

Michigan pushing for Tuggle

Michigan his looking to get back in the picture for On300 Georgia wide receiver commit Nitro Tuggle, who gave the Bulldogs a verbal pledge in April.

The Wolverines reently landed a commitment from Tuggle’s teammate, Jo’Ziah Edmond, and have a need for a big-bodied receiver on the outside. Here is what Holland had to say about his recruitment.

“If you guys remember, Tuggle was a guy that was high on Michigan early on and made a visit before he ended up committing to Georgia in the spring,” Holland said. “But with Edmond committed, Michigan is going to make an effort. In fact, those efforts are already in motion. The Wolverines have been working on Tuggle. He is open to taking other official visits. He wants to make it happen this fall. If he does make other official visits, the door is certainly open for Michigan to receive one.”

At 6-foot-3, 185 pounds, Tuggle is listed as the No. 109 overall prospect and No. 20 wide receiver in the country, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four primary recruiting media services. He’s also the No. 2 player in Indiana.

Michigan has 27 commits in its 2024 recruiting class, which is ranked No. 2 in the Big Ten and No. 10 nationally, per the On3 Industry team recruiting rankings. The class is highlighted by Top 100 Cincinnati (Ohio) Moeller running back Jordan Marshall, Top 100 Charlotte (N.C.) Providence Day quarterback Jadyn Davis and Top 100 Rochester (Mich.) Adams tight end Brady Prieskorn.
