Grant is on Michigan's radar apparently.

Doran Grant, 5-10 165 4.69, Akron OH St. Vincent-St. Mary. St. Vincent-St. Mary is a traditionally strong program (Maurice Clarett and LeBron James are notable alums), but Grant is still god enough that he was named the team's MVP as a freshman. He camped at Michigan in the summer of 2008.

they might want to double check on some of their facts, however

Free Rivals - Rivals.com Football Recruiting - Impressions from the Road: Northeast Ohio

CB- Doran Grant (2011)- St. Vincent-St. Mary- From an eye-ball standpoint, cornerback prospects don't come prettier than Doran Grant. He is a rangy 5-foot-10 prospect, well built, with long arms. He can play the position as well. He is physical, and likes to jam and disrupt receivers' routes with a solid jab to the chest. Grant's most impressive play came at quarterback- taking an option play about 70 yards for a score. He had several impressive runs as a running back as well.
