West Bloomfield (Mich.) High is loaded in the backfield.
Of course, the powerhouse Michigan program is home to Rivals100 running back Donovan Edwards. But it also happens to feature one of the hottest 2022 recruits in the country in Dillon Tatum.
“We look like a good team,” Tatum said. “I think we have the best backfield in the state. Actually, the whole country. We have a great offensive line. I think we’re going to have a really good team this year.”
Tatum is listed an athlete and has position flexibility, but he best projects as a running back and will co-star alongside Edwards at West Bloomfield this fall.
On the recruiting front, Tatum has attracted early offers from Arizona State, Florida, Miami, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, Texas A&M, Wisconsin and a number of other major programs.
“It’s becoming a little stressful,” Tatum said. “I have to stay on a schedule and call the coaches because they can’t call me first. I want to visit Michigan this season, but I also want to get around the country and see some Pac-12 and SEC schools.”
