Summary
In this episode, we break down Michigan’s recent recruiting run in the 2020 class, breaking down the Wolverines’ three recent commitments — offensive tackle Zak Zinter, linebacker Nikhai Hill-Green and defensive end Braiden McGregor — and what the trio could bring to Michigan both in a football sense and a recruiting sense.Â
We also look ahead to what could be a busy month and change for the Wolverines’ 2020 class and what to watch for.
The second half of the episode is spent looking at Michigan's 2019 recruiting class, many of which will arrive on campus this week or next to begin training in June.Â
We revisit some of the recruits who haven’t been discussed too much since signing nearly six months ago, breaking down early contenders to land two-deep roles, dark-horse recruits and what the rest of the class can do this summer to improve their trajectory.Â
