Summary

In a short, lightning-round format, Shaw and Lorenz break down the key things to know about the Michigan football team’s 2020 recruiting class.

We begin by discussing how uneventful not just the February National Signing Day was for Michigan, but really the entire recruiting cycle has been since July, with only two commitments since then. We also break down the Wolverines’ process in scouting and pursuing top targets, and how that has changed in recent years.

After that, we zero in on some of the key recruiting battles and top targets that landed in Michigan’s class. We break down the key players to watch from the class in the 2020 season, what to make of the geographic recruitment this cycle and offer a quick peek-ahead to the 2021 cycle.

0:57.7	No, I mean, it's pretty much been boring
0:59.8	since July, so
1:01.7	I actually kind of wish there was
1:04.0	a little bit more going on than

1:08.3	verbal commitment list since
1:10.7	like the end of the summer, like, official visit period.
1:15.2	So it's been incredibly boring.
