Michigan football is currently focused on recruiting for the 2026 class, with three commitments already secured. After landing five-star quarterback Bryce Underwood in 2025, the Wolverines are now targeting another signal caller. Ryder Lyons and Brady Smigiel, two five-star quarterbacks, have been connected to Michigan, but after a successful visit, the Wolverines offered a scholarship to Ashland (OH) three-star quarterback Nathan Bernhard. On3’s Steve Wiltfong predicts with a 60% confidence level that Michigan will land Bernhard. Despite being an Ohio State fan, Bernhard has not received an offer from his favorite team, with top offers from schools like Duke, Indiana, Louisville, Michigan State, and Penn State. Ranked 530th overall in the 2026 class and the 30th quarterback, Bernhard could potentially be one of two quarterbacks in Michigan’s recruiting class if Lyons or Smigiel choose to commit as well.
