Michigan remains a serious contender in flipping top-tier recruits, and one of their key targets, Brady Marchese, is set to make an official visit to Ann Arbor this weekend. The four-star wide receiver has been committed to Georgia since mid-March.
The program heavily pursued Marchese from January through March, with Wolverines wide receivers coach Ron Bellamy leading the charge. At one point, many believed he would ultimately choose Michigan; however, he ended up committing to the Bulldogs over the Wolverines, Georgia Tech and West Virginia.
"I would just say how they always like to win games, and they don't ever really have a bad season," Marchese said on Friday, via Dawgs247. "They're good every year, and I think that means a lot to me. And their coaches, they recruit, I mean, they recruit the best everywhere. They're always getting the top dogs for sure, and that means a lot to me too."
However, Marchese's decision to revisit Michigan may be suggesting that he’s still considering the Wolverines.
In his junior season in 2024, Marchese totaled 44 receptions for 1,051 yards and 11 touchdowns. He is the No. 54 wide receiver in the 2026 class and the No. 41 prospect in Georgia, according to the On3 Industry Rankings. He also competes in track as part of Cartersville’s 4x100 team and ran a 4.4-second 40-yard dash at a Coastal Carolina camp.
Four-star WR Zion Robinson will also visit Michigan this weekend
Michigan already has three-star wide receiver Jaylen Pile committed in the 2026 class. However, the Wolverines are looking to strengthen their wide receiver corps to better support quarterback Bryce Underwood.
Besides Brady Marchese, they will also host four-star wide receiver Zion Robinson this weekend. The 6-foot-4 and 180 pound prospect visited Ann Arbor last month for the spring game.
Robinson attends Mansfield High School in Texas. He is the No. 24 prospect in the state and the No. 22 wide receiver in the 2026 class.
Michigan has seven committed players in the 2026 class, ranking No. 17 in the nation.
