Even though the hiring news hasn’t been made official by the university yet, the addition of Steve Clinkscale as cornerbacks coach/passing game coordinator for Michigan football is already having a positive impact on the recruiting trail.
One recruit in the 2022 class who developed a rapport with Clinkscale while he was at Kentucky is three-star cornerback Myles Pollard. He was one of the top targets for Maurice Linguist before he left for the head coaching gig at Buffalo last week, and he will assuredly remain a top target for Michigan now that Clinkscale is in town.
