ANN ARBOR, Mich. (Michigan News Source) – All eyes have been on the University of Michigan the past two weeks with rumors of what the NCAA may sanction the Wolverines with. That did not stop the nation’s top high school talent from committing to the Wolverines. In the latest 247Sports ranking after signing day on February 5, Michigan has the sixth-best recruiting class in the nation.

Michigan signed seven Top 100 recruits with four five-star recruits. Detroit’s Belleville High School quarterback Bryce Underwood leads the class and is the nation’s no. 1 player. Underwood flipped his commitment to Michigan in late fall from LSU and has helped land the top talent.

A surprise signing came early Wednesday morning as five-star tackle Ty Haywood signed with the Wolverines. The 6-5 285-pounder from Denton, Texas, is ESPN’s no. 16 overall recruit and third-ranked offensive tackle. Haywood said on ESPN.com, “We all have the same mindset of winning. We’re going to go in and do what we’re supposed to do. But we’re also going to have fun with this process and next chapter of life. I’m ready to go dominate, win games and make it a fun time in our lives.”

Haywood joins Andrew Babalola, another 247Sports five-star player, on the offensive line. Babalola is from Overland Park, Kansas and stands at 6-6, weighing 290 pounds. Also joining the offense with Haywood and Babalola is four-star wide receiver Andrew Marsh from Fulshear, Texas.

Michigan also signed two top-10 safeties, Kainoa Winston (Washington D.C.) and Elijah Dotson (Belleville, Mich.), and a top-15 cornerback, Shamari Earls (Chester, Va.). The no. 4 Edge in the nation, Nate Marshall (Oak Park, Ill.), is the top recruit on defense for the Wolverines.
