Breaking News:Just now Wolverines confirms QB world class signing
The dead period is nearly over, which means recruiting should be ramping up even more as we inch closer to the spring game. This all, of course, means that recruits should be setting up some visits this March/April to check out spring practices
Perhaps the Michigan Wolverines can get some of the prospect’s discussed in today’s Recruiting Roundup on campus this spring. Today, we will discuss a trio of defensive linemen Michigan has been prioritizing, with two of them going on the record with excitement regarding Michigan’s new defensive line coach.
When the news hit that Mike Elston was leaving Michigan to be the defensive line coach for Jim Harbaugh and the Los Angeles Chargers, 2025 four-star defensive lineman Jaylen Williams sent out this tweet:
This, of course, is in reference to the three Crystal Ball predictions in favor of the Wolverines for them to land Williams. But now that head coach Sherrone Moore has (unofficially) hired former Wisconsin defensive line coach Greg Scruggs for the same position, Williams couldn’t be more excited.
That’s crazy,” Williams told The Michigan Insider’s Brice Marich ($). “I still think it’s a great improvement adding Scruggs. Me and coach Scruggs have been really close as we built a really good relationship since he started recruiting me early in my sophomore year, so that’s definitely big for Michigan.
As he alluded to, Scruggs was recruiting Williams when he was still with the Badgers. Scruggs is a familiar face to Williams, so this should be able to keep Michigan in this recruitment for the long haul.
Next up will be getting him back up to Ann Arbor. He last visited for The Game against Ohio State in November, and was also in town for the BBQ at the Big House last July. Williams already has official visits mapped out to Tennessee (June 15th) and Nebraska (June 22nd), according to 247Sports’ Allen Trieu ($), so Michigan should be aiming for one of those first weekends in June to get him back on campus.
