Michigan football 2021 offer board update: May 29

Well, we have a first for these weekly board updates after three months of writing them. Michigan didn’t offer a 2021 prospect in the last week. Obviously, offers are going to slow down as the cycle continues on and Michigan’s class fills up. It was also slow on the subtraction side, as only three players committed to other schools. Michigan did make the top list for several prospects, including Rocco Spindler and Ryan Barnes, who are top targets at their positions.

Subtractions

Removed JJ Jones from the board. The three-star wide receiver committed to UNC May 21.

Removed Jack Pugh from the board. The four-star tight end committed to Wisconsin May 25.

Removed Chaz Chambliss from the board. The four-star linebacker committed to Georgia May 26.

Removed Moliki Matavao from the board. The four-star tight end committed to Oregon May 27.
