4-star DL Nate Marshall flips commitment from Auburn to Michigan

Chicago (Ill.) Fenwick four-star defensive lineman Nate Marshall has flipped his commitment from Auburn to Michigan, he told On3’s Hayes Fawcett.

Marshall had been committed to the Tigers since August, when he decommitted from the Wolverines and joined Auburn’s class.

Now he’ll head to back to Ann Arbor, where Sherrone Moore and Co. are looking to build out another elite defensive class.

Marshall is the No. 59 overall prospect in the 2025 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He also ranks as the No. 7 defensive lineman and No. 3 recruit in Illinois.

As a junior last fall, the 6-foot-4, 265-pounder was named his league’s defensive player of the year after recording 38 tackles, 16 tackles for loss, six sacks, 13 quarterback hits, four forced fumbles and four blocked kicks. On offense, he had four touchdown receptions.

Nate Marshall Scouting Report

On3’s Scouting and Rankings team writes this about Marshall:

“Bendy big man that has unbelievable balance and body control for his stature combined with the power and explosiveness that makes him borderline unblockable at the point of attack. Two-way player that lines up at tight end and wide receiver as well.

… Measured in at 6-foot-4, 270 pounds during summer campus visits. Tested well in agility drills during camp settings. Great weight distribution throughout his frame. Possesses excellent raw power and shock in his hands. Has the ability to rush the passer from the edge if asked to do so. Will develop proper pad level and contact initiation at the next level with collegiate coaching. Has tremendous upside due to frame and athletic tools. Best football is ahead of him.”
