ESPN 300 wide receiver Nico Collins commits to Michigan

Michigan landed ESPN 300 wide receiver Nico Collins on Wednesday, beating out Alabama and Georgia. Collins is the No. 150 ranked prospect overall and is the third ESPN 300 receiver commit for Michigan in the 2017 class.

The Wolverines have ESPN 300 receivers Donovan Peoples-Jones, Tarik Black and four-star receiver Oliver Martin to go along with Collins. While Collins is now in the fold for Michigan, the Wolverines, at one point, weren’t even a consideration for the four-star receiver.

“Michigan, when they first offered me I was just like, 'OK, I appreciate it,” Collins said.
