BREAKING: Michigan Football Lands Big-Time Local Prospect

The Michigan Wolverines made another big addition to their 2024 class on Wednesday, this time with a local top-five prospect.

Jeremiah Beasley, the No. 5 prospect in the state of Michigan and No. 25 overall linebacker in the country according to 247Sports, committed to the Wolverines over rival Michigan State, Penn State, Tennessee and Missouri.

Here's the scouting report on Beasley from 247Sports' national recruiting analyst, Allen Trieu:

Powerful linebacker with short-area explosion. Adequate size, but hits beyond his listed measurables. Was injured as a freshman and had a good sophomore year, but made big strides as a junior and seemed to have his explosiveness all the way back following his recovery. Has a track background and runs and moves around easily in space. Times his blitzes and shoots gaps with good acceleration. Also is a standout at running back and could fit the bill as a bigger back if a school wants to play him there. Three-down linebacker who can fit in a variety of systems.

With the commitment of Beasley, the Wolverines now have 24 commitments in the 2024 class - a class that is currently ranked within the top-five nationally.
