A quick update on things as I run out the door. Will tag later.
Last Week’s Visitors
We’ll have to do this weekly. Here are last weekend’s people.
QB: We’ll cover Justyn Martin below.
TE: KS 3 ATH Jaren Kanak ⬇ was told he’d get a legit chance to play two ways($), just like Ron Kramer, and Michigan in his ear again($, info in title) on Monday. Unfortunately Kanak got a Clemson offer at a Clemson camp during the week, and crystal balls are going in for the Tigers($, info in title) as we speak, hence the red arrow. He visits Bama, who’s also looking at him as a hybrid OLB, next weekend.
DT: Sorry to get everyone’s hopes up on 2021 CA 4 NT Jay Toia ⬇⬇⬇. Sam Webb told us during the taping of WTKA yesterday that Toia had UCLA ahead all along but the family was convinced USC was going to block that, and since he was about to share that on air I figure it’s not a secret. Michigan truthfully informed them that wasn’t the case, and they went “Oh,” and he went to

Syracuse has done a nice job collecting and developing talent in the secondary under head coach Dino Babers. The Orange is now after one of the top cornerbacks in California in the 2022 recruiting cycle in Jahlil Florence. Where does Syracuse stand with Florence? Who is the main competition and why is he an important target? Full breakdown here.

Michigan’s closing in on prospects at some positions of need, and adding guys to the board at a lot of spots where they’re less sure of their top options. So let’s check in on recruiting before this post gets pushed down by another Hello or Goodbye. The 2022 recruiting board lives here.
Quarterback
CA 3
Nate Johnson got a crystal ball from 24/7’s Sam Webb and a FutureCast from Rivals’s EJ Holland recently. Johnson ran a 10.49 100-meter-dash at a meet last weekend per his coach. For reference, Tyrone Wheatley put up a 10.46 at Michigan, Denard’s personal best was 10.44, and the mathematics of the Universal Standard Model of Quarterback Physics breaks down at around 10.42.

Jahlil Florence is a no-frills high school recruit from San Diego, someone who doesn t show his face a lot on social media, with a preference to announce his college football offers simply with stock images.
On Thursday, the 6-foot-2, 183-pound cornerback from Lincoln High School and the class of 2022 announced that the University of Washington and defensive-backs coach Will Harris had extended him a scholarship offer through a Zoom call.
Note the big W with the word football against a simple purple backdrop and nothing more. No doctored images of him in a college uniform in a college stadium somewhere, just a school letter and a simple message.
