The 2015 recruiting season may be over and done with, but Michigan football head coach Jim Harbaugh and his coaching staff aren't done building for the future by a long shot. After a late push on the trail landed U-M in the top 40 of recruiting classes for this past cycle, Harbaugh is hard at work in hopes of putting together a top-10 haul or better in 2016.

Harbaugh's bread and butter?
If there's one thing that Jim Harbaugh's offenses are known for, it's using the tight-end position to full effect both in run blocking and from a pass-catching perspective.
That theme is continuing on in the team's 2016 recruiting efforts, with the program reportedly feeling good about their chances at landing 4-star Concord (CA) De La Salle TE Devin Asiasi and/or 4-star Exton (PA) Downington East TE Cary Angeline.
Michigan is also keeping the lines of communication open to 4-star Flower Mound (TX) Marcus product Kaden Smith and 4-star FSU commit Isaac Nauta, so there's plenty of options as Harbaugh continues to build a blue-chip stable of tight ends.
A new top target appears to have emerged...
4-star ATH Jordan Fuller may have snuck his way to the top of Michigan's 2016 recruiting wishlist over the past few days, with the Wolverines a likely bet to go all-in on him at safety.
Why do we think that? Well, there's this...

Three-star flip looking to recruit his teammate to Ann Arbor
The Wolverines pulled off a minor shocker on National Signing Day by flipping 3-star Pratville (AL) defensive back Keith Washington from Cal. Regardless, Washington is happy to be part of the mix in Ann Arbor, and is even looking to recruit teammate and 2016 running back recruit Kingston Davis to join him next year.
"I'm definitely going to recruit him to Michigan," Washington said, via Steve Lorenz of 247Sports. "Kingston is a great player and I'd love to play with him again."
Kingston is currently unranked, but could very well come in highly-touted after scouts have a chance to fully review film from his junior year.
