Sounds Like Michigan Could Be In The Driver’s Seat For Five-Star, No. 1 Ranked QB

Michigan looks to be trending positively for several QBs in the 2026 class with upcoming visits scheduled. While Brady Hart is a name to watch following ND’s commitment of Noah Grubbs, Rivals’ Adam Garner reports that the No. 4 player in the class and No. 1 QB to Rivals, Brady Smiegel, is one to monitor closely:

Florida State and Michigan have emerged as the front-runners for the Newbury Park, Calif., standout who put up massive numbers in his sophomore season as he threw the ball 479 times. Smigiel wants to go somewhere he feels loved by the coaching staff and his relationship with coach Mike Norvell, position coach Tony Tokarz and others definitely stands out. Will he be able to throw the ball enough in Ann Arbor? That’s something Smigiel is figuring out as coach Sherrone Moore takes over. The Seminoles have to like their position in his recruitment at this point.
