Michigan head coach Dusty May and an assistant coach were reportedly visiting 2026 five-star Anthony Thompson — the No. 5 overall player in his class — Wednesday. Thompson visited Michigan last weekend, so he’s fresh off his trip.

Here’s the latest on Thompson from Rivals’ Jamie Shaw:

Anthony Thompson, Rivals’ No. 5 overall player in 2026, is scheduled to take six visits. He has already gone to UNC, Ohio State, and Michigan. The 6-foot-7 wing has Indiana (9/12), Texas (9/19), and Kentucky (9/24) remaining.

The school I hear the most about right now is Indiana. One source close to the recruitment told me they are watching this weekend’s visit closely. I am told that the Michigan trip went well and that Ohio State does feel like they have a little momentum. While things have been fluid here, intel suggests this recruitment is heating up. I am told schools are battling, so continue to watch which campuses he sets foot on and if a commitment timeline emerges.

Michigan booster Larry Ellison is the richest person in the world, passing Elon Musk.

Quote Of The Day

“Bryce Underwood is going to be the best quarterback in college football. Justice (Haynes) has been going crazy, I’m not going to lie. I like how they are using the running backs for sure.”
