Michigan football has a full-court press on for Ohio cornerback duo Bryce West and Aaron Scott.
West visited Ann Arbor on June 9 and subsequently canceled his USC official visit while claiming he’s down to Michigan and Ohio State. Scott visited Ann Arbor this past weekend along with the bulk of the Wolverine commits.
It appears the maize and blue will get the former back on campus one more time before he takes his official visit to Columbus this upcoming weekend.
According to Bill Greene at Buckeye Scoop, West is looking to come back to Michigan for an unofficial visit to get another data point in his impending decision between the two rival schools.
A new wrinkle to these plans could see West going back to Michigan for an unofficial visit in the next few days to visit with the Wolverine coaching staff. This visit was not originally in the plans for West, and he and his family will decide on Monday whether it will take place.
“We are thinking of going back to Michigan this week,” West told BuckeyeScoop.com. “I really enjoyed everything at Michigan two weeks ago and my family and I are talking about possibly going back up there for a day or two this week, before I take my official visit to Ohio State.”
At the moment, West is heavily favored to land at in-state Ohio State per the 247Sports crystal ball. While Scott also has similar projections, West comes from what’s long been an OSU-feeder school in Cleveland, Glenville, coached by Ted Ginn Sr. Should Michigan get one (or both), it would be a huge coup to the pecking order within the state in terms of recruiting.
Michigan already gained one major player in the Buckeye state that Ohio State coveted, Cincinnati (Ohio) Moeller four-star running back Jordan Marshall, who took his official visit to Ann Arbor this past weekend.
