Whenever head coach Sherrone Moore sends out a tweet with the eye emoji, you know that good news is coming. That was the case yesterday when the Wolverines landed four-star edge rusher McHale Blade, and it was the case on Tuesday when the Wolverines landed three-star DL Alister Vallejo.

Vallejo, a 6-3, 310-pound prospect out of Texas, chose the Wolverines over Notre Dame, Ole Miss, and Houston. On3's recruiting service lists Vallejo as the No. 62 overall prospect from the state of Texas and the No. 51 DL in the nation for the 2026 class.

With Vallejo in the mix, Michigan now has nine commitments in its 2026 recruiting class, and that class ranks No. 15 in the nation according to On3's latest team rankings.

Following the recruiting win over Notre Dame on Tuesday night, Michigan coaches and staff members took to social media to react:
