Michigan Football relies on three offensive weapons

After a relatively slow start to the recruiting season that saw the Michigan Wolverines ranked outside the top 50 in the country, head coach Sherrone Moore and his staff have done a phenomenal job over the last month. Michigan, currently ranked 18th in the country according to 247Sports, could see some significant additions in the near future – especially on offense.

Here’s a look at three offensive weapons that are currently considered favorites for the Wolverines:

Andrew Marsh: Four-star WR

Marsh is considered one of the top 10 wide receiver prospects in the class of 2025 and is currently on track to become a Michigan Wolverine. Marsh’s addition to Michigan’s 2025 recruiting class would be significant for several reasons. At 6’1″ and 195 pounds, he is a borderline five-star prospect and could potentially become the highest-rated WR prospect to commit to Michigan since Donovan Peoples-Jones in 2017. In June, he visited USC, Texas, Kentucky and Michigan and said he really enjoyed his time in Ann Arbor.

Marsh wants to factor the opportunity to play early and get a good education into his decision-making process. At this point, it seems likely that Marsh will announce his decision sometime in the fall – but it could happen as early as August.

Phillip Wright: Three-star WR

Don’t let the three-star ranking fool you, Phillip Wright is a problem for any opposing defense. The 6-foot-4, 175-pound track star is dangerous with the ball in his hands and his speed allows him to make plays that others can’t. He currently has three programs – Georgia, LSU and Michigan – and plans to announce his decision on July 13. While it would certainly be understandable for the Louisiana native to stay home and become a Tiger, there are currently several predictions favoring Michigan as the landing spot.

Andrew Olesh: TE with four stars

It looks like July 8 will be the decision for one of the top tight end prospects in the country, and Michigan appears to be leading the way. At 6-foot-5 and 215 pounds, Andrew Olesh has everything you want in a tight end. He finished his junior season with 53 catches for 972 yards and 10 TDs, and his athleticism at the position could make him an extremely dangerous target at the next level. He visited three times in June, including visits to Penn State, Florida and Michigan. Right now, the battle seems to be narrowed down to two top programs – Alabama and Michigan.
