Good afternoon national champs. The offseason is upon us, which means it's time to have a recruiting board. What this is: This is our sticky recruiting board for 2025. When Alex or I finish a major update (happens quarterly-ish), it will be reposted to the top of the site. Otherwise it will be under the "Useful Stuff" tab. The Guys: Icon Name Meaning Mr. Blue Player is either a verbal or is expected to be one sooner or later. Players with this designation are 65%+ to be Michigan commits. Happy Teeth Players who have Michigan in a small leading group or have Michigan as a tenuous...

Previously: Offense. DEFENSIVE END A paring of Derrick Moore and Josiah Stewart might not be particularly far off the legendary Hutchinson-Ojabo pairing from 2021. Stewart and Moore were already Michigan's top edge guys per PFF, and they were more or less indistinguishable from the departed Braiden McGregor and Jaylen Harrell in UFR grading. Neither was exactly a star in 2023, but it's not hard to extrapolate them from very good rotation players into stars with another year of development They had pass rush win rates of 17% (Stewart) and 15% (Moore), which was good for 18th and 43rd,...

The Illini are going to have to make some key additions this offseason.

UFR GLOSSARY is here. FORMATION NOTES: Minnesota was mostly an under-center or shotgun 3-wide with a WR jetting across. Their 4th down formation was Unbalanced; the guy at the bottom of the line is a TE/eligible receiver. And Michigan used a weird formation on 3rd & 7 with 3 DEs on the field and Harrell and a LB stacked behind the nose that I called 3-1 stack. They also split a DE wide on their 5-2s odd formations that I called 5-2 split—the nose is still over the center. SUBSTITUTION NOTES: There were 40 snaps before Tuttle Time in this one. Graham led the DTs in snaps, playing DT or no...

UFR GLOSSARY is here. Also apologies for the 2009-level quality on some of these recordings—my copy of the game was in low-res for a chunk of the 2nd quarter. FORMATION NOTES: Mostly basic stuff we've been charting since Loeffler was a Michigan assistant. Michigan broke out an odd formation from its nickel with the WDE (Moore, at the bottom) playing inside the RT. I called it Nickel Tite. A few notation reminders: parentheticals mean the player is covered. I'm still using hyphens for motion so if you see "H-SB" that means the slot receiver (H) motioned to a splitback (SB)...
