Summary
On today's episode of the Michigan Recruiting Insider, the great Allen Trieu joins the show to break down a ton of topics related to Michigan recruiting, particularly in the Midwest. We break down more than ten 2027 prospects while discussing some early 2028 targets and even setting the in-state stage for the 2029 and 2030 (!!) classes.
Allen also helps us break down the hiring of Dave Peloquin as Michigan's new general manager. We talk about his experience at Notre Dame and why his previous experience in recruiting and the agent side of things is a perfect fit for today's college football atmosphere.
To conclude, Brice and Steve discuss Michigan's quarterback board in 2027 following the decommitment of Peter Bourque. New offers Dane Weber and Kamden Lopati are the two names discussed in-depth.
