Michigan football isn't done

Michigan football has landed two five-star recruits in this class -- the first time that's happened since McCarthy and Donovan Edwards in 2021 -- but they are aiming for a third in Ty Haywood.

The five-star offensive tackle would be an incredible piece to add alongside Andrew Babalola. Haywood was committed to Alabama but didn't sign with the Crimson Tide and isn't expected to.

It sounds like his recruitment will go beyond the early signing period, which ends Friday. Michigan isn't a slam dunk to win it, but landing two five-star offensive lineman, along with a five-star quarterback is a dream scenario.

The Wolverines could have seven top-100 recruits and for the first time since U-M started winning championships, it feels like they have the right amount of recruiting buzz.
