Michigan has offered Baltimore Gilman 2018 defensive end Thomas Booker. Here's a quick look at the player.

Michigan was Booker's first offer, followed immediately after Maryland.

Being in the door before anyone else is a big boost for Michigan even though Maryland came through immediately after. That they've been strong in the DMV/Baltimore areas in recent years certainly doesn't hurt. While Biff Poggi, the father of U-M senior Henry, is no longer at Gilman, there's still familiarity with 2016 offensive lineman Stephen Spanellis headed to Ann Arbor.
