Falcon, a 6-1, 210-pounder ranked a four-star and the No. 12 tailback nationally (No. 7 overall senior in Michigan), has suffered season-ending knee injuries in multiple seasons.

The Michigan coaching staff gave him the opportunity to attend the University on a medical scholarship - ending his playing career, but Falcon instead has chosen to explore options that will allow him to work his way back onto the field.

The Wolverines still boast a commitment from Prattville (Ala.) three-star Kingston Davis, and are exploring other options at the running back position. Wayne (N.J.) DePaul Catholic five-star and former Ohio State pledge Kareem Walker is the top target on the board. Walker visited Ann Arbor for the Northwestern game, and has also taken an official visit to Alabama, He plans other visits to Ole Miss and Arizona State before announcing a commitment prior to his January enrollment at the school of his choice.
