Michigan remains firmly in the mix for Springfield (Ohio) corner Aaron Scott Jr.
The elite 4-star corner revealed his Top 5 on Thursday, and he has the Wolverines included alongside Ohio State, Penn State, Oregon, and Tennessee. The Buckeyes are viewed as the favorites in his recruitment, but Michigan has to feel good about its chances. The Wolverines are the only known school so far with an official visit on the books.

A 6-foot, 170-pound cornerback, Scott ranks as the No. 56 overall recruit in the 2024 class by the industry-generated 247 Composite. He’s also the No. 2 prospect from the state of Ohio and the No. 6 corner in the class. He finished his junior season with 21 tackles, five interceptions, three tackles for loss, and a fumble recovery. Two of Scott’s picks were returned for scores.
Michigan is in on several high-profile corner prospects but doesn’t currently have a verbal commitment from anyone at the position. The Wolverines are getting an official visit from Scott on June 16.
Ohio State is also looking for its first corner to join the class. Oregon is hoping for another top-100 prospect to pair with 4-star Ify Obidegwu.
