Michigan Thursday: How Did The 2026 Recruiting Class Finish?

Michigan signed a kicker, a DE/LB who is the brother of the starting DE, and a long snapper yesterday.  This was after Michigan signed a very nice class in early December, then all hell broke loose, and now Michigan has a completely new coaching staff and was able to secure most of the class. 

Rankings per 24/7:

5 Stars: 2 Meadows and Hiter
4 Stars: 9
3 Stars: 10
Not Rated: 3

National Rankings per Service:
24/7: 12 
Composite: 12 
On3/Rivals: 12 
ESPN: 11 

It seems all of the services just have Michigan's class right outside the top 10.  Please note, these rankings do not include true freshman Salesi Moa who is a 5 star on some services.  He is offically a transfer.  
Michigan might have the best DL class in the country highlighted by Carter Meadows and a great RB with Savion Hiter. 

With the program completely exploding days after the early signing period.  I'm happy with this result.

I think this year's recruiting class is underrated. We received commitments from every position of need, including QB, RB, WR, Edge, and even a kicker. I trust Coach Whitt's judgement on some lower rated guys, like that LB we picked up late. Gonna be a very enjoyable year coming up. I was at the end of my rope w Sherrone, way too many frustrating moments.

Given the implosion in December, to be #11 is amazing. Wait till Whit has time to actually recruit.
