WR: Jordan Shipp, Channing Goodwin, I’Marion Stewart, Elijah Moore

This is a very solid group. While it may not be full of super elite talents, every player in this group seems underrated and could become an NFL draft pick. Moore is the tall, physical receiver out of the group, with the other three focusing more on their speed and route-running.

As of now, I’m very confident that Shipp, Goodwin, and Stewart will be Wolverines. Moore has not visited yet but has been consistently talking to the staff. If Michigan football pushes, I believe they win his recruitment.

I was tempted to put top 100 Idaho receiver Gatlin Blair in this group, but it’s so hard for a Midwest school to pull a kid out of Idaho. Yes, the Wolverines did it with Colston Loveland, but I just don’t have enough confidence to predict Blair will follow Loveland to Ann Arbor.

TE: Hogan Hansen (Committed), Brady Prieskorn

Miami has been pushing for Hansen, and it’s very possible that he does flip there. Miami is a very NIL-friendly school, so it’s likely they’re offering Hansen a very generous deal to go there.

Along with this, you never know how a kid is going to react when a higher-ranked player commits to the same school. I’m expecting Prieskorn to commit sooner rather than later, and wouldn’t be surprised if that caused Hansen to look elsewhere.

However, Michigan football uses the tight ends as much as anyone in the nation. There is more than enough room on the field for two great tight ends, and Hansen would have just as good of an opportunity at Michigan compared to anywhere else.

At this moment, I think Hansen stays.
