Trieu: Michigan in play for Auburn WR commit Pickens

Michigan is set to receive an official visit from Hoover (Ala.) wide receiver George Pickens on June 9. Pickens (6-5, 199 pounds) is a Top 100 national prospect who has been committed to Auburn since last July, but a sudden recruiting boom has him re-thinking whether he experienced enough of the recruiting process.

“It was this time last year that he was finally playing varsity at Hoover, ...,” 247Sports analyst John Garcia said. “He had a huge spring game and a lot of schools were thinking, why haven’t we heard of him before? So he starts getting offers that day and a few weeks later, camps at Auburn, gets an offer and commits.
