Recruiting can provide drama and, sometimes, fireworks, as Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh promised this week on his podcast.
Daxton Hill’s recruitment provided both and elevated the Wolverines class, which currently has 24 signees, to a No. 7 ranking nationally by 247Sports Composite. The class has been considered the top in the Big Ten. The announcement early Wednesday morning of his signing with Michigan completed the flip-flip drama that recently unfolded when Hill, the nation’s top-ranked safety, de-committed from Michigan to commit to Alabama, and then flipped back to Michigan.
As if often the case, when there are recruiting highs, there are recruiting disappointments.
