The Wolverines don’t necessarily have one 2025 commitment on lockdown despite his being a vocal recruiter for Michigan football.
A four-star linebacker from Buford, Georgia, Mantrez Walker pledged to the maize and blue in February and has been constantly in the ears of other recruits considering Michigan football. However, he may not be solid when it comes to heading north.
Walker went on X, formerly known as Twitter, to say that if any other schools wanted to come calling, his recruitment is open and he’s not 100% shut down. Thus, calling him committed isn’t exactly truth in this scenario.
My Recruitment Is Open , I Am Not 100% Shut Down…..💯 #GodsPlan

Considering Walker cannot sign with a school until December 2024 at the very earliest, it appears unlikely Michigan will end up with him in the class, barring a strong recruitment effort in the interim.
The Wolverines have another pledge in 2025 who does appear to be solid to the maize and blue: Hollywood (Florida) Chaminade-Madonna Prep four-star cornerback Chris Ewald.
