2023 three-star edge Tyler Thompson commits to North Carolina over Michigan

The Michigan Wolverines have missed out on yet another top target in the 2023 class, with three-star edge Tyler Thompson announcing his verbal pledge to the North Carolina Tar Heels on Wednesday.

Thompson is a 6-foot-5, 200-pound edge rusher from Cary, North Carolina. Defensive line coach Mike Elston and the Wolverines extended an offer to him in February. North Carolina — the other school thought to be a threat in this recruitment — extended an offer to Thompson in early June and got him up for a visit not long after the Michigan trip.
