The last time Michigan football landed a player this game-changing, it was May 2019 when 2021 five-star quarterback J.J. McCarthy pledged to become a Wolverine. It’s taken nearly four years for the maize and blue to get another player so consequential.
The Wolverines haven’t signed five-stars in that span outside of McCarthy and legacy cornerback Will Johnson. That changed on Friday when 2024 Charlotte (N.C.) Providence Day QB Jadyn Davis went live on national television to announce he plans to wear a winged helmet.
We know how the media reacted, but how did the coaches react? The Michigan football Twitter account gave us a glimpse inside of Schembechler Hall at the moment Davis put on a Block M hat and revealed a Michigan shirt underneath his hoodie.
The news has been very good today!#GoBlue pic.twitter.com/q8c1AfhYb2

With Davis in the fold, Michigan football has moved up to No. 3 in the 247Sports team rankings, the best in the Big Ten. He’s the 10th commitment of the 2024 recruiting cycle.
