<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The class of 2023 has a new Top 5! You'll see that our list is a bit different than other recruiting sites, and we think that's great! These top 5 prospects have all the potential in the world, and at this point, it's not crazy to think about an NFL future!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>#1 | QB | [player_tooltip player_id='30316' first='Dante' last='Moore'] | UCLA Commit</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I'll just say right now; this is likely the final time I talk about Dante at the high school level! What a ride it's been for him. He was always the #1 prospect in the class, and he's arguably the #1 quarterback in the entire country. He caps off his high school career with back-to-back state titles, and I couldn't be happier. In the few times I've met Dante, he seems like a genuinely great guy. There is absolutely no arguing this #1 spot, and I can't wait to see him in that powder blue!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>#2 | WR | [player_tooltip player_id='162651' first='Semaj' last='Morgan'] | Michigan Commit</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is where my list really differs from some others. I absolutely love Semaj as a prospect and as long as Michigan utilizes him correctly, he'll be great. People have forgotten that in the beginning of this past season, Semaj was a Mr. Football candidate. On top of that, he's one of the twitchiest athletes I've ever seen. His movement in the open field is crazy, catch radius is great, and he's overall an elite athlete. We all saw the pictures of Jim Harbaugh visiting his home, and it was apparent that Semaj was a top priority for the Wolverines. Can't wait to see what he'll do for the Maize and Blue! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>#3 | OL | [player_tooltip player_id='30318' first='Amir' last='Herring'] | Michigan Commit</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Amir is the best offensive lineman in this class, without a doubt. I don't really know what to say except he's been dominant for years, and like Semaj, he was a priority for Michigan. Knowing how Michigan develops O-Line talent, Amir will become something special. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>#4 | DL | [player_tooltip player_id='162650' first='Jalen' last='Thompson'] | Michigan State Commit</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jalen has fluctuated slightly through the years, but one thing is certain; he's a beast with elite athletic traits and has sky-high potential. His ability to shed blocks and deliver HARD hits is crazy, and his performance against the best of the best has been admirable. MSU welcomes Jalen with open arms. Have fun in East Lansing but don't party too hard! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>#5 | RB | [player_tooltip player_id='162655' first='Cole' last='Cabana'] | Michigan Commit</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cabana is a high riser, and likely the fastest player in the class. He's got the power of [player_tooltip player_id='300689' first='Tim' last='Kloska'] with similar speed and athleticism as D. Taylor. Again, knowing how Michigan develops their O-Line and RBs, there's no doubt Cabana has a bright future with the Maize and Blue. With Donovan Edwards and Blake Corum heading out soon, I would not be surprised of Cabana got some early carries! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

The class of 2023 has a new Top 5! You'll see that our list is a bit different than other recruiting sites, and we think that's great! These top 5 prospects have all the potential in the world, and at this point, it's not crazy to think about an NFL future!
