In a weekend filled with portal news for the Michigan Football team, they also picked up a class of 2023 commitment from DB D'Juan (DJ) Waller Jr.:

— DJ Waller JR (@dwaller6x) December 19, 2022
Waller hails from Youngstown and is a teammate of Michigan commit Jason Hewlett at Chaney HS. Waller checks in at roughly 6'3" and ~195 lbs., marketed as a DB who is a bit of a tweener between CB and S. Like Hewlett and fellow 2023 commit Breeon Ishmail, Waller is another stab-in-the-dark type prospect, with his 247 composite ranking being outside the top 1,000, although some sites have him far higher. He will be an interesting Hello to get to in a couple days.

I'm not sure I know what's going on with that green thing on the top, but it sure is festive!

Last week’s recruiting/NIL critique was a little premature.

Maybe. But it's not like we are beating out OSU, Clemson, and Alabama for a few of these recruits.

Well, actually, since they're signing with us and not those schools, we are!

Does Jim have an Halo over his head? He might as well after the last two seasons.

Seems like a high upside S to allow to develop behind last years super class.

King, I like your analogy. Lots of potential at safety waiting to get on the field. A couple years of coaching and weight training, DJ could be a solid player 👍

A kid who played Corner with the growth potential to be a Big Safety or a WILL Linebacker? I really like what Harbaugh is doing with this class. We are quietly building a big, fast, versatile and physical defense. Add Hill and Moore and you're cooking with some serious gas. Ishmail, Waller, Koumba, Bahr, and Hewlett all have growth potentials for positions that they aren't ranked at.
