The Wolverine's EJ Holland will make a pair of stops this weekend on the recruiting trail. Holland will make his way to see three-star tight end commit Colston Loveland and Gooding (Idaho) HS take on Kimberly on Friday night. On Saturday, he will travel to California to watch defensive tackle Mason Graham and Servite play Mater Dei HS.

Running back CJ Stokes had 138 yards and three touchdowns last week, which has earned him a spotlight here. How he is able to follow that up will be something to watch this weekend as he takes on a 1-5 Cardinal Newman squad.

Defensive end Kevonté Henry also gets the nod as one of our featured commits this week as his team takes on 7-0 Inglewood on Friday night. Henry has been productive and disruptive this season and it is easy to see why he appeals to Michigan's staff.

Last but not least, defensive back Damani Dent gets a magnifying glass on him this week as Michigan's newest commitment. He has 45 total tackles, three interceptions, four passes defended this season. Friday night's game pits 5-3 Parker HS against 5-2 University Christian.
