Michigan football offers 4-star RB Carsyn Baker, visits Savion Hiter for 2026 class

Michigan football offers 4-star RB Carsyn Baker, visits Savion Hiter for 2026 class For a long while, it appeared that Michigan football would end up with two top 10 running backs in the 2026 class. Now the Wolverines are still wooing their top target, but the other -- Forney (Tx.) four-star tailback Javian Osborne -- ended up committing to Notre Dame over the maize and blue earlier this month. It's clear that the Wolverines are looking for two backs this cycle, and are still in the thick of it for a few prospects. But the board is expanding, and a new offer for a four-star prospect in the 2026 recruiting class went out on Tuesday. Michigan offers a new four-star RB in the 2026 class Though other pursuits continue (more on that later) the Wolverines are not sitting by idly. Per his X account, Michigan offered 2026 Fairburn (Ga.) Langston Hughes four-star running back Carsyn Baker. Though 247Sports' proprietary rankings have Baker as a three-star, the other recruiting services are higher on him. He's listed highest by On3, which has him at No. 136 overall and the 10th-best running back. He's rated No. 181 overall according to the 247Sports Composite. Though he has no 247Sports Crystal Ball predictions as of yet, Ohio State is the perceived favorite for Baker at this time. Also a track star, Baker ran the 100-meter dash in 10.65 seconds. Michigan visits its top target on Tuesday Wolverines running backs coach Tony Alford is quite busy now that Michigan's self-imposed recruiting restrictions have come to an end. Just one day after coaches hit the road, Alford was spotted at Mineral (Va.) Louisa County to visit five-star tailback Savion Hiter, who has long been seen as the big fish and top overall target in the 2026 class. Michigan has been in hot pursuit of Hiter since Alford defected from Ohio State last year, but the Buckeyes are still working hard for him to come to Columbus. The Wolverines are also targeting Tyrone (Ga.) Sandy Creek four-star Amari Latimer, but Wisconsin has a prediction according to the 247Sports Crystal Ball.
