Michigan football makes top 8 for 4-star 2024 ATH in SEC country

This one’s probably going to be a tough pull.

Michigan football is continuing to make in-roads with some top-flight prospects half the country away from Ann Arbor.

With recruiting in full swing now that players can return to campus for official visits, one elite player who was offered back in March has the Wolverines among his top schools.

2024 Meridian (Miss.) four-star athlete Daniel Hill has some of the biggest offers in the country. According to the 247Sports Composite, Hill is rated the No. 196 player nationally, regardless of position, is the 16th-best athlete and seventh-ranked player in the state of Mississippi. He dropped his top eight on Sunday, and Michigan football made the cut along with Alabama, Tennessee, LSU, Auburn, Penn State, Mississippi State, and South Carolina.

It will be tough sledding for the maize and blue in his recruitment, it appears, even if they’re in striking distance. At the moment, South Carolina holds an advantage according to the 247Sports Crystal Ball, as the Gamecocks have three predictions indicating he’ll end up in Columbia.
