Four-star running back Javian Osborne is one of Michigan’s top overall targets in the 2026 class. The electric 5-foot-10, 195-pounder from Forney, Texas is considered a lean to the in-state Longhorns as of now. However, the professional football team right down I-94 east may have given the Wolverines a massive assist in this recruitment.
As reported by 247Sports on Thursday, the Detroit Lions are hiring Texas Longhorns running backs coach Tashard Choice to coach their running backs. Before getting hired by the Lions, Choice was also in the mix for the same position with the Dallas Cowboys.
