The Michigan Wolverines bolstered their defensive recruiting with the pickup of 2023 four-star linebacker Semaj Bridgeman. He chose the Wolverines out his top six, which also included Rutgers, Alabama, Georgia, Oregon and South Carolina.
Out of Imhotep Institute in Philadelphia, Bridgeman is rated as the No. 305 player overall in the country and the No. 20 linebacker.
Michigan’s recruitment of Bridgeman happened pretty quickly. In April, Michigan was not included in his initial top list of eight schools. But in early June, the Wolverines picked up contact and made his final six.
