Jim Harbaugh is always trying to find an edge in his recruiting game. We’ve seen him sleep on a recruit’s floor, climb a tree, and attend high school classes in hopes of landing the next great Michigan Football player.

Tyler Martin may be five years away from college, but he already knows Michigan is deeply invested in him as a football player. The 6’3″, 227 pound linebacker plays for Buckingham Browne & Nichols School in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Martin, who is likely just 13 years of age, announced the offer on his Twitter page last week.
