Cole has been spending the weekend in Ann Arbor due to the coaching staffs yearly BBQ recruiting event. Since Friday, Michigan's QB commit Alex Malzone, also a four-star and number four ranked player in the state, has been by Cole's side. The extra attention surely paid off.
This commitment has been considered a surprise, although Cole has kept his recruitment mostly quiet to the public. According to 247Sports, his crystal ball prediction was listed at 71% to Michigan State. Either way, this is a big blow to the Spartans and a major recruiting victory for the Wolverines.
The six-foot-two and 190 pound talent plays defensive back and wide receiver for Saginaw Heritage. It is believed that he will play as a receiver at Michigan.
