The 6-foot-2, 190-pounder had scholarship offers from Army and Bentley University but opted to take a chance with the Wolverines.
Wolverines hoping to flip Colorado QB commit
Michigan recently offered a scholarship to three-star quarterback Ty Evans (Monument, CO), and while he committed to Colorado just over a week ago, Evans says there's a chance this offer changes things for him.
“I'd say it's a pretty firm commitment,” Evans told 247sports, but he didn't completely close the door on Michigan. “I've learned the hard way that in college football, you really never know. I've talked to my coaches at CU and I told them, 'I'm going to be respectful to every coach that wants to engage, wants to talk. I'll give them all the information that they want.' It's a hard question, just because with coaching nowadays, it seems like if they have a bad season, they're out, and that can ruin it completely.
“I think anybody who's a fan of college football – not even a fan; just anybody who knows about college football knows about Michigan and Jim Harbaugh. The program that they've built up there is insane. My sister was actually getting recruited by them for volleyball, I'd say like four or five years ago? So I've already toured the campus and stuff like that. I had a good idea about the Michigan campus. It's a great program, and I can't say enough great things about it.”
The 6-foot-2, 192-pounder is ranked as the No. 10 pro-style quarterback and No. 374 overall prospect in the country.
Michigan the favorite for 2019 CB
The Wolverines offered 2019 cornerback Aman Greenwood (Washington, DC) this week, and he said that offer has made Michigan the favorite for him.
“Coach Harbaugh and Coach Brown were in my AD's office and talking for awhile about my season and then I found out that Coach Brown and Harbaugh were offering me," Greenwood told The Michigan Insider. "I was very excited. Michigan is one of those schools you dream about playing at. I'm highly interested in Michigan and I like that they produce defensive backs to the league”
The 6-foot, 180-pounder also has scholarship offers from Boston College, East Carolina, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, and Syracuse.
