Michigan Football: 10 recruits to watch for Wolverines in 2020

Julian Fleming (No. 5 overall, No. 1 WR)

Julian Fleming is one of the top players in the 2020 recruiting class and while it may seem like a long shot for Michigan football to land him, wide receivers, thanks to having Gattis as the offensive coordinator, seem more and more interested in the Wolverines.

Another thing that helps Michigan in this scenario is that Alabama was one of the first schools Fleming paid an unofficial visit to and Gattis was one of the primary guys recruiting him. Now, that relationship can be developed at Michigan.

At 6-foot-3, 210 pounds, Fleming is one of the best wide receivers to come out in recent years and right now, according to 247 sports, the battle is mainly between Penn State and Ohio State, with the Nittany Lions holding the majority of his crystal ball predictions.

Yet, Fleming seems to be warming to the idea of playing for the Wolverines and at the very least, Michigan should have a chance to be in the running for Fleming until the very end, especially if they can get him to visit Ann Arbor and meet again with Gattis.
