Michigan football has brought in a ton of high-profile recruits over the years, but oddly, not nearly as many on the offensive side of the ball as that on defense — which has been rife with five-stars over the course of decades.
In fact, the Wolverines haven’t even had 10 five-stars on the offensive side of the ball in the past 23 years, dating back to 2001 when modern recruiting services started taking the world by storm. By contrast, though Michigan has had eight five-stars on offense in the past 23 years, rival Ohio State had six on its roster just this past season.
