Recruitment

Michigan was his first reported offer all the way back on Jan. 20, 2017, and he became a frequent visitor to Ann Arbor, even after he rose quickly through the rankings.

As he became a national recruit, he saw offers from the likes of Stanford, Notre Dame, Clemson, Penn State, Ohio State and Wisconsin, but committed to Michigan in the week that multiple signees pledged, making it official on June 27.

Readiness Level

Likely a candidate to either be a starter or backup in year two. Almost certainly a redshirt in his first year.

Early Enrollee?

Yes
