When Michigan was struggling to recruit top tier players early in the 2025 recruiting cycle. I made a statement that Michigan was done getting 5-stars as they are not going to pay for players to come to Ann Arbor. They would have to develop 3 and 4 star players to play like 5 stars.
Those are famous last words now as Michigan landed the #1 player in the country QB Bryce Underwood and changed the way they handled NIL to be competitive with Ohio State and other programs.
The latest news is Rivals has made Michigan commit DE Nate Marshall a 5 star.
