The next six weeks are a key part of the recruiting calendar, with the Michigan Wolverines hosting several top recruits ahead of the spring game on April 19. Let’s dive into a few of those upcoming visits and more news on this edition of the Recruiting Roundup, kicking things off with a five-star quarterback.

Five-star QB set to visit Michigan next month

Michigan’s already got one five-star quarterback in Bryce Underwood, and the Wolverines are hoping to add another one. The mother of 2026 five-star quarterback Ryder Lyons told On3’s Ethan McDowell ($) they will be at Michigan on April 12-13.

While he’s technically a 2026 recruit, it’s important to note that Lyons — a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints — will be taking a year-long mission trip after high school. Meaning, he should be viewed as a 2027 recruit.

Lyons was named 2024-25 Gatorade California Football Player of the Year after throwing for 3,011 yards as a junior. He also had an impressive completion percentage (68.1 percent) while throwing for 46 touchdowns and six interceptions. He also ran for 585 yards and 14 more scores.

Michigan is pursuing Lyons aggressively, with head coach Sherrone Moore, offensive coordinator Chip Lindsey, general manager Sean Magee and tight ends coach Steve Casula all stopping by his school in January. Additionally, Lindsey made an additional trip to watch him throw.

It’s safe to say Lyons is among Michigan’s top targets at the quarterback position in this cycle, even with him technically being a 2027 recruit. We should know a lot more about where Michigan sits in his recruitment following his trip next month.

Four-star QB visiting Michigan later this month

Lyons isn’t the only passer visiting Michigan this spring, with 2027 four-star quarterback Trent Seaborn telling The Michigan Insider’s Brice Marich ($) he will be visiting Ann Arbor from March 28-30. It will be his first time in Ann Arbor.

The 6-foot-1 Alabaster, Alabama native is ranked 78th overall and ninth among quarterbacks composite. He’s got offers from pretty much every SEC school, plus Nebraska, Oregon, Washington and Wisconsin.

It sounds like Michigan’s biggest advantage in this recruitment is Seaborn’s connection with Lindsey.

“(Lindsey) offered me at North Carolina and has been recruiting me since seventh grade. We’ve built a good relationship. I think he’s a great coach,” Seaborn said. “We’ve talked a lot of ball and his style of offense is very similar to what we run at Thompson and being that he has deep roots in Alabama, college and high school, he knows Thompson and coach Freeman, my head coach, very well. He knows our style of offense and he’s seen a ton of my game film over the years and since we’ve had this long of a relationship he’s been able to see my growth.”

Surprisingly, Seaborn does not hold an offer from Michigan up to this point. With the Wolverines wanting to host him for a visit, it wouldn’t be a shocker to see him walk away from Ann Arbor with an offer.

2026 three-star TE discusses receiving Michigan offer

2026 three-star tight end Luke Sorensen picked up several offers last month, including one from the Wolverines.

In a recent interview with TMI’s Marich ($), Sorensen said Casula called him to give him the good news. Notably, Sorensen plays at Servite in California, the same school that soon-to-be first-round pick Mason Graham played at.

“I’m pretty interested,” Sorensen said. “They have one of the best tight ends in the game, so that speaks to the level of development they have. Definitely a big school, what they have done with Colston Loveland is awesome and I’ll try and get down to Ann Arbor.”

Nothing is officially in his calendar in terms of a visit, but that could change soon.

“Maybe,” Sorensen said. “It depends on my spring schedule, but I’ll make time for National Champs (laughter).”
