Wolverine TV: Game clips of Michigan EDGE commit Dominic Nichols

Michigan EDGE commit Dominic Nichols was a force on Friday night as he helped lead Ijamsville (Md.) Oakdale to a 42-22 win over Ijamsville (Md.) Urbana.

The Wolverine’s EJ Holland was onsite and captured exclusive clips from the contest. Watch highlights of Nichols in the video above.

Nichols Recruitment

A three-star prospect, Nichols committed to Michigan over offers from Clemson, Florida State, Georgia, Ole Miss, Penn State, South Carolina, Tennessee, Wisconsin and others in June.

The decision came soon after his official visit.

“It’s about development, really,” Nichols said. “I can go there, play outside and get developed how I need to be developed. Their EDGE production is insane”

Schools like Clemson, Florida State and Wisconsin have continued to recruit Nichols. However, he has remained solid to U-M.

“We’re all good there,” Nichols told The Wolverine earlier this fall. “(Dylan) Roney has been checking in every other day. (Mike) Elston and (Jesse) Minter call every week. I would say we’re good there. I feel comfortable with Michigan. I still think it’s the choice, and I’m going to stick with it. I have no other thoughts, really.”

Nichols is planning to graduate in December and enroll early at Michigan.

At 6-foot-5, 255 pounds, Nichols is ranked as the No. 47 defensive lineman and No. 498 overall prospect in the country, per the On3 Industry Ranking. He is also ranked as the No. 15 overall recruit in the state of Maryland.

Michigan has 25 commits in its 2024 recruiting class, which is ranked No. 4 in the Big Ten and No. 14 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, Top 100 Kansas City (Mo.) Rockhurst offensive lineman Andrew Sprague and Top 100 Rochester (Mich.) Adams tight end Brady Prieskorn.
