In a major recruiting coup, two top senior linebackers from Michigan have committed to Power Four programs.
Bryce Kish, a 6'3, 225-pound standout from Howell, has pledged to Clemson. Kish is an outstanding all-around athlete who also played running back, but stepped up at linebacker last year, sparking a surge in his recruitment.
The state of Michigan is expected to produce over 20 linebackers who will play college football at some level.
Bryce Kish's athleticism and versatility make him an exciting prospect for Clemson. His recruitment exploded after he transitioned from running back to linebacker last year.
Meanwhile, Elliott Neff from Thornapple Kellogg has committed to Kansas. Neff, who was initially considered a receiver or safety, has grown into a linebacker with a skill player's speed and agility.
Neff's frame and growth potential made him a natural fit for linebacker. He still runs and covers like a skill player, making him a valuable asset for Kansas.
The list of Michigan's top linebackers continues to grow, with several players committed to Mid-American Conference (MAC) and Division II schools.
B.J. Adams from Orchard Lake St. Mary's has pledged to Central Michigan, while Bryce Barbarino from Saline is heading to Western Michigan. Collin Sumpter from Detroit Cass Tech has committed to Miami (Ohio), and Gannon Limotte from South Lyon is bound for Eastern Michigan.
Carter Czapinski from Utica and Jalen Montlouis from Detroit Catholic Central have both chosen Grand Valley State.
The commitment of these top linebackers from Michigan to Power Four programs highlights the state's rich football talent.
The next development in this story is expected to come from the remaining top linebacker recruits, who are still weighing their options.
