The recruiting wins keep coming for the Michigan Wolverines. The Big Ten powerhouse secured a commitment from one of the best players in the country on Sunday when five-star EDGE Carter Meadows announced his intention to join the program.

Some may view Michigan's 2024 finish as a disappointment due to its 8-5 record, but the Wolverines closed the regular season by beating their main rival, the Ohio State Buckeyes, and secured a signature bowl win against the SEC's Alabama Crimson Tide.

Adding to that momentum, the Wolverines defied the odds in December by flipping five-star quarterback Bryce Underwood away from the LSU Tigers. The 6-foot-4, 210-pound signal-caller is projected to be the team's starter this season.

Michigan and head coach Sherrone Moore received more good news on Monday upon earning another blue-chip commitment from four-star safety Andre Clarke from Richmond, Virginia.

Hailing from Hermitage High School — which has produced some star talent in the NFL such as Duane Brown, Jamie Sharper, Darren Sharper and Shawn Barber — Clarke follows in the footsteps of the school's pedigree.

On3 rates Clarke as the 185th player in the country, the No. 16 safety and sixth-best player from Virginia.

He visited Michigan earlier this month and upon committing to the Wolverines, Clarke described what helped him make his decision, per On3's EJ Holland.

“There is something about Ann Arbor,” Clarke said. “It feels like home.”

The 6-foot, 165-pound defensive back also spoke highly of secondary coach LaMar Morgan and coach Moore.

“I like Coach Morgan’s knowledge,” Clarke said. “I like the way he coaches. He’s really smart. I think he can help me become a better man. I really enjoyed talking to Coach Moore, too. I like his story and how far he’s come.”

Michigan has the 10th-best recruiting class according to On3's 2026 team rankings.
