Michigan Wolverines land commitment from No. 23 overall recruit, defensive end Derrick Moore

Michigan added a commitment from ESPN 300 defensive end Derrick Moore on Wednesday.

Moore is the No. 23 ranked prospect overall and chose the Wolverines over Ole Miss. Moore is a 6-foot-4, 250-pound prospect from St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, Maryland, who was committed to Oklahoma, until he decommitted on Nov. 29 after Lincoln Riley left for USC.

The Wolverines lost a commitment from three-star defensive end Ethan Burke earlier in the day when Burke flipped to Texas, making the addition of Moore, who is the No. 3 defensive end in the class, even more significant.
