Olesh Recruitment

Penn State was considered the leader for Olesh for the majority of the recruiting cycle. However, Michigan picked up some serious steam going into his official visit for Victors Weekend in June.

It was there where Michigan truly took command of this recruitment and gained the lead on the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine.

While Alabama made a late run, new Michigan tight ends coach Steve Casula did a fantastic job of closing with Olesh. Casula made Olesh his only true target at the position after arriving in Ann Arbor this offseason.

Here is what Holland had to say about Olesh.

“I’m really high on Olesh as a prospect,” Holland said. “He’s a Top 100 recruit on On3. When you look at his film, he’s a really tall, athletic pass catcher. Michigan has likened him to Colston Loveland, who spends a lot of time in the slot and out wide. That’s exactly how you can use Andrew Olesh — kind of as an extra bigger wide receiver. He has the height at 6-foot-5. He has the athleticism. He has really good speed for his size.”

At 6-foot-5, 215 pounds, Olesh is ranked as the No. 3 tight end and No. 87 overall prospect nationally, per the On3 Industry Ranking. He is also ranked as the No. 3 overall recruit in the state of Pennsylvania this cycle.

Michigan has 16 commits in its 2025 recruiting class — Top 100 Katy (Texas) Jordan wide receiver Andrew Marsh, Top 100 Center Valley (Pa.) Southern Lehigh tight end Andrew Olesh, Top 100 Winter Garden (Fla.) West Orange safety Ivan Taylor, Top 100 Washington (D.C.) Gonzaga defensive back Kainoa Winston, Top 100 Oak Park (Ill.) Fenwick defensive lineman Nate Marshall, On300 Fort Myers (Fla.) Bishop Verot quarterback Carter Smith, On300 Alpharetta (Ga.) High EDGE Julius Holly, On300 Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy running back Donovan Johnson, On300 Kilgore (Texas) High cornerback Jayden Sanders, four-star New Orleans (La.) Archbishop Shaw wide receiver Jacob Washington, four-star Palatine (Ill.) High EDGE Jaylen Williams, four-star Birmingham (Mich.) Groves offensive lineman Avery Gach, four-star Howell (Mich.) High defensive lineman Bobby Kanka, three-star New Orleans (La.) Archbishop Shaw running back Jasper Parker, three-star Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy offensive lineman Kaden Strayhorn, three-star Stockbridge (Ga.) High linebacker Chase Taylor and three-star Alcoa (Tenn.) High tight end Eli Owens.

The class entered the day ranked No. 14 nationally and No. 3 in the Big Ten, per the On3 Industry national team recruiting rankings. The Wolverines currently sit behind Ohio State and Oregon.
