Summary
In this episode, we break down each and every one of Michigan's commitments in the last week and a half, which has totaled 11 pickups. The flurry may continue, but we decided to dig in to the 11 who have pledged.
Starting toward the bottom of the 247Sports Composite rankings, we first look at defensive end and son of former NFL lineman Kris Jenkins, Massachusetts athlete Eamonn Dennis, Brooklyn-based VIPER William Mohan and New Jersey defensive end Aaron Lewis. Next, we look at offensive linemen Jeffrey Persi and Reece Atteberry, with a brief look at offensive line recruiting.
Then, we move on to the four-star Michigan recruits, looking at the Wolverines' influx in speed on both sides of the ball in Roman Wilson, Blake Corum, Jordan Morant, Kalel Mullings and A.J. Henning. Along the way, we discuss the recruiting battles and likely fit early on for each commitment.

| 1:32.4 | Because, like, I've been saying for months that the early official visit period is just going to continue to lend itself to more and more verbal commitments when the process is starting earlier and earlier for some of these guys. |
