Jordan Marshall Chose Michigan Over Ohio State Because of Coaching and Culture:

Jordan Marshall took a shot at Ohio State this week.

Before he became a running back for the Wolverines, Marshall was a four-star recruit in the 2024 class, ranked as the No. 3 prospect in Ohio. Both Ohio State and Michigan recruited the Cincinnati native, but he ultimately committed to UM and has become a featured part of the team’s offense this season, especially with Justice Haynes sidelined due to injury.

On Tuesday, Marshall shared the reason he chose the Wolverines over the Buckeyes. He didn’t hold back.

"I really liked Tony Alford. He would probably be one of the reasons that I went there," Marshall said of his Ohio State recruitment.
