The Wolverines have been hitting the South hard in the 2026 recruiting cycle with a player already committed from Georgia, another from Florida, and another in Texas. And the maize and blue are working hard on several others in all three of those states.
Grayson is a powerhouse high school in Loganville, Georgia, just east of Atlanta, that’s produced some of the best talent in the country for decades. There are several prospects over the years that Michigan football has worked hard to bring into the fold, with the latest to actually come to Ann Arbor being standout right tackle Trente Jones.
Now there’s another that the maize and blue strongly covet. But it’s going to be difficult to pull him out of SEC country, given the other schools he’s interested in.
Michigan makes the top group for a four-star linebacker
From said Loganville (Ga.) Grayson, four-star linebacker Anthony Davis Jr. revealed his final five schools in advance of taking his official visits starting on Friday. And the one outlier is Michigan football, with the other five hailing from the SEC footprint.
The bad news for the Wolverines is that Davis is set to visit Auburn this week, Ole Miss next week, and Alabama on June 20. He’s set to see Ann Arbor on June 13, giving the maize and blue a chance to overcome his other SEC finalists. Florida is not listed as having an official visit forthcoming, but he’s been to Gainesville three times already.
Ranking and more
Davis is listed as the No. 174 overall prospect according to Rivals, which is the highest on the 6-foot-2, 205-pound linebacker. He’s listed as a consensus four-star, with only On3 having him as a three-star in its proprietary rankings.
There are no predictions yet as to where Davis will end up at the next level. He is committed to play in the Under Armour All-America Game at year’s end.
