Nation’s No. 1 overall prospect in 2022 class sets Michigan visit for this weekend
Published:
This weekend’s game between Michigan and Washington at the Big House in Ann Arbor is expected to draw the typical massive crowd, with the game having been designated as the first “Maize Out” of the year. But reportedly there will be one person at the game that has all eyes looking to the future of Michigan Football.
Five-star recruit Walter Nolen will be in attendance to watch the Wolverines defend their home turf from the Huskies. Joining the standout defensive lineman him will be his younger brothers Warren and Waylon, who both have early offers as well.

Nolen is ranked the No. 1 overall recruit according to the 247 sports composite rankings and has ties to the state of Michigan with family in the Detroit Area.
Previous reports had Nolen narrowing his list of potential schools down to three, with the Wolverines not making the cut — Tennessee, Texas A&M and Georgia were still on his list. But with the announcement over Twitter that he is attending the Washington game this weekend, maybe things have changed.
