Wolverine TV: Breaking down five key recruits expected to visit this month

Michigan is set to have a busy April as several top recruiting targets are expected to come in for unofficial visit.

The Wolverine’s EJ Holland breaks down five key targets slated to be in Ann Arbor, including Top 100 Oradell (N.J.) Bergen Catholic wide receiver Quincy Porter.

Porter Recruitment

Michigan is looking for a big-bodied wide receiver this cycle and is making Porter a top priority. Both U-M wide receivers coach Ron Bellamy and area recruiter Grant Newsome have been in constant communication and have the Wolverines in the mix here.

Porter made his first-ever visit to Michigan over the summer when he attended the annual BBQ at The Big House in late July. Porter got an in-depth look at the program and facilities and also had a chance to work out with Bellamy.

He is now set to return to Michigan this weekend. Here are Holland’s thoughts on his recruitment:

“Quincy is such a dynamic player and really unlike anybody on Michigan’s roster right now,” Holland said. “If he ends up signing with Michigan, I think he could come in and potentially start as a true freshman. Michigan is making him a major priority this cycle. It’s no surprise he’s ranked as the No. 55 overall recruit in the country. I have said it for about a year now. I think Quincy Porter is a five-star. This visit in April is extremely imperative. It’s going to tell us a lot about where Michigan stands in this recruitment.”

Along with Michigan, Porter holds early offers from Alabama, Florida State, Georgia, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Penn State, South Carolina, Tennessee and others.

At 6-foot-3, 190 pounds, Porter is ranked as the No. 7 wide receiver and No. 55 overall prospect in the country, per the On3 Industry Ranking. He is also ranked as the No. 1 overall recruit in the state of New Jersey for next cycle.

Michigan currently has the lead for Porter on the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine with a 25.5 percent chance of landing him. Rutgers is in second place with a 15.1 percent chance of landing him.

Michigan currently has three commitments in its 2025 recruiting class — On300 Fort Myers (Fla.) Bishop Verot quarterback Carter Smith, On300 Howell (Mich.) High defensive lineman Bobby Kanka and three-star Alcoa (Tenn.) High tight end Eli Owens. The class is ranked No. 20 nationally, per the On3 Industry team recruiting rankings.
