Wolverine TV: Dynamic DL Roderick Pierce on signing with Michigan
National signing day is officially here.
Several Michigan commits are set to put pen to paper and officially become Wolverines. Chicago (Ill.) Brother Rice defensive lineman Roderick Pierce submitted his National Letter of Intent this morning and is ready to be in Ann Arbor.
The Wolverine recruiting analyst Zach Libby caught up with Pierce to discuss signing with U-M, his relationship with the coaching staff, two fall visits, and more.
Watch the exclusive Q&A below.
Pierce committed to Michigan over offers from Illinois, Texas, Kentucky, Michigan State, Auburn, and Missouri.
Pierce has an On3 NIL Valuation of $9.8K with 4,700 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.
