    Michigan Recruiting Insider: QB Recruiting Dominoes Falling, Spring Visit Intel
    Apr 16 2026
    On this week’s edition of The Michigan Recruiting Insider, Sam Webb, Steve Lorenz, and Brice Marich discussed the recent commitment of Salt Lake City (West) dual-threat quarterback Kamden Laopati. Lopati, a former Illinois commit, chose Michigan over Notre Dame and several other programs. The team analyzed his fit within Michigan's offensive strategy and noted the possibility of Michigan taking two quarterbacks in this class, with Las Vegas (Nev.) Arbor View’s Thaddeus Thatcher as a strong candidate. The discussion then shifted to receiver recruiting, highlighting Thatcher's Arbor View teammate, a 6-foot-4, 210-pound pass catcher, who has become a top option following a strong visit. The crew also previewed upcoming visits from several top targets, including Top 247 running back Ty Keys from Poplarville (Miss.), edge prospect Marcus Fakatou from Chatsworth (Calif.) Sierra Canyon, and cornerback Joshua Dobson from Cornelius (N.C.). Additionally, they provided an in-depth analysis of the visit implications for Buford (Ga.) linebacker Ethan Hauser, who is scheduled to visit Ann Arbor for the second time in two weeks.

    In the latest episode of The Michigan Basketball Insider, Sam Webb and Tim McCormick preview the national championship game between Michigan and Connecticut. Tim begins by highlighting Michigan’s dominant interior defense and improved three-point shooting in its win over Arizona. He praises Aday Mara for significantly raising his draft stock, potentially into the lottery, and credits Elliot Cadeau’s defense as a key factor in the victory. Tim also notes Trey McKenney’s shooting has put the freshman on NBA draft boards. The discussion then shifts to the upcoming matchup with UConn, focusing on Danny Hurley's tactical strengths, Tarris Reed’s development, and Alex Karaban’s versatility. They address Yaxel Lendeborg’s knee and ankle injuries, and discuss strategies to protect him defensively, as well as the possible impact of Solo Ball’s foot injury for UConn. Although both expect a tougher contest than against Arizona, they predict a close Michigan victory.
