Unlike the old days, Michigan and Ohio State rarely compete for the same recruits, so we don't have too many threads on the recruits whom Michigan is pursuing. If a Michigan recruit does not have his own thread, you can comment on him in here; you can also comment on Michigan recruiting in general.

Please remember to follow the recruiting forum rules (no bashing of recruits), and don't comment on Michigan recruits in the CFB forum in an attempt to circumvent the recruiting forum rules. Once a recruit actually signs with Michigan, then you can comment more freely in the Shenanigans threads.

I’m beginning to think that Harbaugh just doesn’t like recruiting.....

Not to bash the kid but it’s kind of odd to accept a commitment from a kid ranked that low (The DE that committed this weekend) this early unless you’ve just given up any hope/effort on being able to actually land any of the more touted players who were on your board

Either that or he thinks he’s a magician who can turn “his guys” into a 9-4 team every season regardless of their ranking.

COUNTER INTEL: MICHIGAN ENDS DROUGHT, RUTGERS CONTINUES TO BUILD FENCE AROUND NEW JERSEY, AND TWO TOP 50 PLAYERS PICK BIG TEN SCHOOLS

MICHIGAN ENDS COMMITMENT DROUGHT

While it is hard to believe right now, since Ohio State has 15 commitments and has the top class in the country, there was a point last May when Michigan had the better class. However, once the calendar hit June, the two classes went in two very different directions.

Ohio State picked up Jayden Ballard and Ben Christman in the month of June while Michigan began a 10-month commitment drought with its 2021 class that ended just last week to the relief of Wolverine fans.

On Wednesday, Michigan landed its first commitment in the 2021 class in nearly 300 days with the pledge of four-star offensive guard Greg Crippen. The IMG (Fla.) Academy product visited Ohio State last fall for the Buckeyes' game against Penn State. At that time, Crippen was committed to Notre Dame but on March 4 he decommitted from the Fighting Irish and began looking at his options.

Immediately following his decommittment, Michigan looked like the team to beat for Crippen while Ohio State kept its attention on four-star prospects Jager Burton and Rocco Spindler. The Crippen commitment gives Michigan its perceived top target at the center position and a much-needed commitment to end its drought.



Crippen was not the Wolverines' only commitment that day as they landed three-star defensive end Dominick Guidice out of Mater Dei High School in Middletown, New Jersey. The Wolverines offered Guidice at lunch time and took his commitment sight unseen eight hours later.

That's right. Guidice, the nation's 1,171st-ranked prospect in the 247Sports composite, had never worked out in front of a Michigan staff member, let alone visited Ann Arbor.

NORTHWESTERN SWIPES WOLVERINE TARGET OUT OF MICHIGAN

On March 19, three-star offensive tackle Caleb Tiernan, out of Detroit, released a top four that included Penn State, Michigan, Northwestern and Ohio State. He was a high-priority target for his home state Wolverines, but on Saturday morning Tiernan's recruitment shifted from a Michigan lock to Northwestern lean. Later that day, he gave his commitment to Pat Fitzgerald and the Wildcats.
