3 must-land recruits visiting Michigan Football this weekend

Michigan football is hosting a number of elite recruits this weekend. Here are three that the Wolverines must eventually land.  

It’s not hyperbolic to call it a huge recruiting weekend for Michigan football as the Wolverines are hosting a number of priority targets when it comes to the 2024 class.

It’s not an official visit weekend but it’s important all the same. Michigan football is hosting Jadyn Davis and a number of other blue-chip prospects.

They are all important, but some targets are higher on the board than others, and here are three on campus this weekend that Michigan football needs to get in the 2024 class.

5-star QB Jadyn Davis

I’m sure you’re shocked by this selection but Davis is still the top overall target for the Wolverines in the 2024 class. Michigan football didn’t land a top-100 quarterback in either of the past two classes — which makes it even more important in 2024.

You can find quality quarterbacks in the transfer portal. However, it would be nice to have J.J. McCarthy’s successor waiting in the wings. Ideally, that would be Davis and if McCarthy decides to leave for the NFL draft after this season, he could have a shot at the job.

I’m sure Michigan would bring in a veteran but Davis has to like the situation, especially under head coach Jim Harbaugh. This will be his first extended visit with Kirk Campbell as the quarterbacks’ coach, so that’s a final question that needs to be answered.

Yet, there’s no doubt, Michigan needs to close with Davis because you can only be the favorite for so long without a commitment.
