Oden committed to Michigan after two unofficial visits in January. He is the son of former Michigan walk-on fullback Rod Oden.
“Michigan is a great school and a great program,” Oden told The Wolverine. “They’ve done everything right with me. Just a great coaching staff and all of that. It’s cool with them for me. They kept doing their thing this (past) year. They have the attitude to win a national championship.”
Oden is ranked as the No. 14 safety and No. 165 overall prospect nationally, per the On3 Industry Rankings. He is also ranked as the No. 4 overall recruit in the state of Michigan.

Oden has an On3 NIL Valuation of $94K with 7K followers across all platforms. 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.
