Michael Van Buren has emerged as one of the top quarterbacks in the nation in the class of 2024. And, not surprisingly, he has an offer list that features some of the biggest programs in college football.
A standout quarterback at St. Frances Academy (Baltimore, MD), Van Buren is being heavily recruited by a number of Power Five programs after a tremendous sophomore season. This week, he gave an update on his recruitment, talking about the programs that are currently after him the hardest while dropping the names of two powerhouses that could be closing in on offering this summer.
“Right now I’d say Penn State, Michigan, Alabama, Virginia Tech, Maryland and Rutgers,” Van Buren told RutgersWire in a phone interview this week when asked the programs after him the hardest.
“Clemson is also showing interest right now. Georgia too…and a couple other big schools.”
Clemson and Georgia have yet to offer.
Van Buren is a four-star recruit according to Rivals. He is ranked as the eleventh best quarterback in the nation and the No. 149 recruit in the class of 2024.
Van Buren breaks down his recruitment, his relationship with the likes of Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh, Penn State head coach James Franklin, Alabama head coach Nick Saban, Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano as well as the slew of assistants, coordinators and offensive assistants involved in his recruitment. Check out what he had to say about his recruitment by Michigan, Penn State, Alabama, Maryland, Clemson, Georgia and Rutgers!
