The Michigan football program landed a big fish from the recruiting trail.
The Wolverines secured a verbal commitment from Class of 2025 four-star wide receiver Andrew Marsh out of Fulshear, Texas (Katy Jordan) on Tuesday.
Marsh is rated the No. 12 player in Texas, according to 247Sports composite rankings, which also has him as the nation’s No. 8 wide receiver and the No. 52 overall player in his class. He becomes the highest rated wide receiver to commit to the Wolverines since Donovan Peoples Jones (who was the No. 1 ranked wideout in the nation) from Cass Tech in 2017.
Marsh, who stands 6-foot-1 and 175 pounds, holds more than 35 Division I offers, including Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Penn State, USC, Texas, Washington and Kentucky, among others.
The rising senior caught 65 passes for 1,158 yards and 15 touchdowns in his junior season, according to his profile, which also lists that he ran his 400-meter in 50.24 seconds as a freshman.

Unorthodox in gait and play style, but fights through tackles and maintains balance to get extra yardage despite a slighter frame.
“High-major receiver prospect who could develop into an impact player with legitimate long-term NFL Draft upside.”
Marsh is the second wide receiver in the class to commit to position coach Ron Bellamy, joining a greater New Orleans product in four-star Jacob Washington (Archbishop Shaw).
