New Wolverine: Chris Fox


Chris Fox is a second offensive lineman that was added to the class of 2013. He is a offensive tackle from Parker (CO) Ponderosa and is listed at 6'6" and 297 lbs. Fox is a highly rated guy that could move into the 5* status by the end of the recruiting cycle. There was some speculation that he was going to be one of the newest commitments a couple weeks ago, and he made that come true this past weekend. On tape he looks like an absolute mauler, something that should fit in perfectly in a couple years as Michigan goes back to more of a pro-style offense. Like Logan Tuley-Tillman, Chris Fox adds some depth at the tackle position and could push for playing time whether that be his freshman or redshirt freshman season. 

The following are the current recruiting rankings for Chris Fox:
Scout: 4*, #4 OG, #137 Overall
Rivals: 4*, #4 OT, #46 Overall
ESPN: 4*, 81 - Scout Grade, #10 OT, #105 Overall, #1 CO
247: 4*, 95 - 247 Rating, #8 OT, #53 Overall, #1 CO

New Wolverine: Logan Tuley-Tillman


Logan Tuley-Tillman also committed to Michigan this past weekend. He is an offensive tackle from Peoria (IL) Manual and is listed at 6'7" and 301 lbs. (according to Scout). After visiting Ann Arbor about eight or so times over the last couple of months, it was only a matter of time before LTT committed to Michigan. Originally he had said he would like to have his recruitment over with around his birthday (sometime in February if I remember correctly). However, as the offers started pouring in from the likes of Alabama, Florida State, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Wisconsin, he wanted to take his time and take all of his official visits this fall. But I think as LTT seen the offensive line portion of the class fill up over the weekend (all with solid to very solid prospects) he decided that he better jump in the class before his spot is filled.

Tuley-Tillman has great size for the blind side tackle spot. Right now Taylor Lewan has that covered and Erik Magnuson (c/o 2012) could be the next in line. However, after more-than-likely redshirting his freshman season, LTT could push Magnuson as the blind side guy. He adds great depth to the tackle position, something Michigan may lack after Lewan and Michael Schofield graduate after the 2013 season.

The following are the current recruiting rankings for Logan Tuley-Tillman:
Scout: 4*, #14 OT, #153 Overall
Rivals: 4*, #13 OT, #109 Overall
ESPN: 4*, 81 - Scout Grade, #9 OT, #97 Overall, #5 IL
247: 4*, 94 - 247 Rating, #13 OT, #82 Overall, #6 IL
