Scouting report

Via On3’s EJ Holland:

Hamilton is listed at 6-foot-4 on On3 but at 6-foot-6 on his Hudl page. Hamilton can play right tackle at the next level but isn’t overly athletic and lacks foot speed. However, he’s an absolute mauler when he lines up at right guard. Hamilton is at his best in the run game, and his film features several pancakes and clips where he just tosses dudes around. Hamilton is a bully in the trenches and will be a perfect fit at Michigan.

Michigan football gets big-time 2024 legacy commitment

 

Michigan and Utah pick up commitments from 4-star OTs over the weekend

Michigan fans got more good news on Sunday when the team secured a commitment from four-star offensive tackle Luke Hamilton.

In case you haven’t seen a Michigan fan running through your town shirtless and waving a school flag, the Wolverines beat Ohio State on Saturday for the second-straight year.

Following that 45-23 win, Michigan fans got more good news on Sunday when the team secured a commitment from four-star offensive tackle Luke Hamilton.

Hamilton (6-foot-5, 290 pounds) plays for Avon (Ohio) and is ranked No. 8 at his position by 247 Sports and No. 5 in the state. Overall, Hamilton had offers from 22 programs, including Kentucky, Michigan State, Minnesota and Ohio State.

The Wolverines aren’t the only team that got a four-star offensive lineman to commit over the weekend, though.

Utah also picked one up in Caleb Lomu out of Highland (Ariz.)

According to the composite rankings, Lomu (6-foot-5, 290 pounds) is ranked No. 20 at his position and fourth in the state of Arizona. He also had 21 other offers to choose from, including ones from Arizona, California and Michigan.

Michigan football dips into Ohio for third commit in as many days

Three days, three commits from the state of Ohio! #GoBlue

Not only did Michigan football beat Ohio State on Saturday, it appears to be raiding the state down south.

On Friday, on the eve of The Game, the Wolverines secured a commitment from 2023 Cincinnati (Ohio) Princeton linebacker Breeon Ishmail. Hours after The Game, they got another pledge from the Buckeye state, with 2023 Cincinnati (Ohio) Winton Woods cornerback Cameron Calhoun verbally committing.

The progress continued on Sunday, this time with a 2024 offeree.

At 6-foot-5, 290-pounds, 2024 Avon (Ohio) four-star offensive tackle Luke Hamilton is a sight to behold. He’s rated as the No. 170 player in the country in his recruiting cycle, per 247Sports, and has offers from Tennessee, Cincinnati, Kentucky, Michigan State, Nebraska, Penn State, Rutgers, and others. But he committed to Michigan on Sunday afternoon.

Hamilton is the third 2024 pledge for Michigan football at this juncture.

A 6-foot-5, 290-pound offensive tackle, Hamilton is a class of 2024 prospect who is coming off a strong year for Avon (Avon, OH). He already is registering significant interest on the recruiting circuit, including offers from Bowling Green, Iowa State, Kentucky, Michigan State, Penn State and Toledo along with the Monday offer from the Scarlet Knights.

Rivals ranks him as a three-star recruit and the No. 14 offensive tackle in his class. 247Sports has him as a four-star and the No. 159 recruit in the nation.

Hamilton tweeted about the offer from Rutgers on Monday night, his fifth from a ‘Power Five’ team:

 

The offer represents a greater push by Rutgers to tap the Big Ten footprint in terms of their recruiting. This past recruiting cycle, Rutgers landed players such as Illinois athlete Rashad Rochelle and Ohio guard Kwabena Asamoah as part of their recruiting class.

More offers could and should be coming; Hamilton tweeted about visiting Ohio State this weekend.
