Michigan football picks up prediction for standout 4-star WR

The post Michigan football picks up prediction for standout 4-star WR appeared first on ClutchPoints. A big area of concern for the Michigan football team last year was the wide receiver position. The Wolverines struggled offensively, and not having the right talent there was a big reason why. Advertisement Michigan is trying to change that in the 2026 class, and one of its top targets is four-star Zion Robinson. Robinson is one of the top WRs in the class, and he was recently predicted to land with the Wolverines. '2026 4-star WR Zion Robinson has been predicted to Michigan by 247sports Sam Webb,' uofmcoverage said in a post. Michigan and Miami seem to be in the best shape with Zion Robinson, but Stanford and Nebraska are recruiting him hard as well. He has not set a commitment date yet. This would be a big recruiting win for head coach Sherrone Moore and his staff. Robinson is a four-star recruit, according to 247Sports. He is the #71 player in the 2026 class, the #6 WR and the #10 player in the state of Texas. Robinson currently attends Mansfield High School in Mansfield, TX. Michigan is pretty far away from home. Advertisement 'Tall outside target pushing 6-foot-3 with excellent multi-sport athletic context in basketball and track and field,' Robinson's scouting report reads. 'More polished pass catchers are out there but very few boast this combination of above-the-rim hardwood context, a state championship high jump gold medal, and corresponding high-level athleticism in pads. Frame and explosion foster contested-catch dominance.' Robinson is good enough to be a major impact player at Michigan, and he has pro potential as well. 'Displays sneaky run-after-catch effectiveness relative to frame and straight-line top-end gear,' his scouting report continues. 'Shows adequate acceleration that times requires a build-up runway, but leads to breakaway long speed. Advertisement 'Still developing hands consistency and route technique, but showed encouraging signs during junior season and Spring 2025 elite camp evaluation. A particularly high-ceiling outside receiver prospect who could become an impact player in college with long-term pro potential.' The Michigan football team is in position to land a commitment from Zion Robinson. Now, the coaching staff has to find a way to close the deal.

Four-star WR Zion Robinson commits to Michigan

Four-star wide receiver Zion Robinson announced his commitment to play for the Michigan Wolverines on Wednesday. "Trying to pick a school that's good academically, good at football, it's hard," Robinson said on Instagram Live. "But without further ado for the next 3-4 years, I will be taking my academic and athletic talents to the University of Michigan. Go Blue." The 6-foot-3, 180-pound wideout out of Mansfield High School in Texas reportedly chose Michigan over offers from Georgia, Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Penn State, Stanford, Miami and Nebraska. In his junior year in 2024, Robinson caught 42 passes for 527 yards and eight touchdowns and ran 14 times for 76 yards as a junior in 2024. He is ranked as the No. 132 national prospect, No. 18 wide receiver and No. 19 player in Texas for the Class of 2026 in the 247Sports Composite rankings. Robinson also excels in track and field, earning Texas 6A state high jump champion honors with a 6-8 jump as a sophomore in the spring of 2024. His father, Khadevis Robinson, is a two-time Olympic qualifier in the 800-meter (2004, 2012) and is currently the director of track and field at TCU. Robinson's commitment comes on the heels of the same from Titan Davis, a four-star class of 2026 defensive lineman from DeSmet High School in St. Louis. --Field Level Media Field Level Media 2025 - All Rights Reserved
