Jordan Reid Visits Michigan

According to Steve Lorenz of Wolverine 247, Michigan hosted 3* OL Jordan Reid ($) on Tuesday. Reid is a guy we spoke to about a month ago after a solo visit to Michigan. He currently has them second on his list, as Michigan trails Florida for the top spot. Reid is from Detroit, so Michigan has had him on campus more than anybody by a landslide. I would pit this race between the wolverines and the gators, as of right now.

Deontre Thomas Will Commit April 30th, Trending The Wrong Way

After his visit during the Michigan spring game April 1st, 3* DL Deontre Thomas (OK) named Michigan his leader. He followed up on those comments with us, which you can read here, and said he was leaning towards Michigan. With that reassurance in place, and having no visits planned, it was almost certain he would be committing to Michigan. Over the weekend, Thomas headed to Nebraska, and things took a turn. Steve Lorenz of Wolverine 247 put in a crystal ball for Thomas to Nebraska, and he's rarely wrong. MnB has spoke with him on a regular basis, and have reason to believe it's a tight race that Michigan will lose, as of now.

5-Star WR Tee Higgins Wants to Visit Michigan

5-star WR Tee Higgins (Oak Ridge, TN) said recently that he wants to visit Michigan soon($), according to Steve Lorenz. Higgins is the second-overall WR in the country, and the 15th overall player, according to the 247 composite rankings. Currently, Higgins is trending towards Clemson, but a Michigan visit could change everything, as we have seen happen plenty of times.

2018 4* LB Solomon Tuliaupupu High on Michigan After Offer

MnB caught up with the four-star linebacker out of Claremont, CA, and the full piece will be out later today. Tuliaupupu has offers from BYU, Washington and now, Michigan. Since he's a 2018, the offers will likely begin to roll in for him soon. He said it's too early right now for a top list, but that he's very interested in U-M.

He also had a nice thing to say about Jim Harbaugh in a clip from the full article.

"Coach Harbaugh seems like a great coach and person to be around," he said. "I feel has great energy that empowers the people around him and make them better, like a true leader."

Tuliaupupu will likely visit Michigan in the summer.
