Top 2024 CB target eliminates USC, down to Michigan football and the Buckeyes

Let’s beat the Buckeyes again!

Michigan will have a good showing again this weekend when it plays host to some big names for official visits, but the Wolverines are coming off a gigantic recruiting weekend last week.

The Wolverines had two five-stars on campus, plus some priority targets. One in particular was Cleveland (Ohio) Glenville cornerback, Bryce West.

West was on campus on June 9 for the weekend, and it appeared he hit off with the recruits and Michigan commits. West was scheduled to visit USC this weekend, but he canceled the visit with the Trojans according to On3. He announced the battle to land him is down to Michigan and Ohio State.

West, a four-star, is the 49th-ranked player in the 2024 class according to the 247Sports composite. He is the No. 4 cornerback in the cycle and the top-ranked player in the state of Ohio.

According to the recruiting services, the Buckeyes have a big lead for West. Seven crystal ball predictions are in for West to select OSU. The On3 recruiting prediction machine gives Ohio State a 97.2% chance to land West.

But Michigan has won one big battle with the Buckeyes on the 2024 trail thus far. The Wolverines landed four-star running back Jordan Marshall, an Ohio native, over the Buckeyes. The maize and blue have four Ohio commitments in the class.
