The 2020 recruiting class is behind us.

With National Signing Day coming to a close, Michigan has opted not to make any late additions. The Wolverines signed 23 players in December and once again boast a highly touted class.

Now, it's time to look ahead to 2021. The Wolverines already have a pair of commits for next cycle and are looking to add more talent.

The good news is Michigan already holds a commitment from 2021 Rivals100 quarterback JJ McCarthy, so the Wolverines have basically filled this need.
