Twitter reactions: Michigan football lands former Notre Dame commit
Michigan football is coming off a huge recruiting weekend when it had two five-star 2024 recruits along with plenty of high four-star recruits on campus. Social media has been blowing up with how well the Wolverines have been recruiting, and the recruits are tweeting about their visits.
This weekend was something special for a lot of the recruits, but one prospect, in particular, had a wonderful weekend. The maize and blue received a commitment from former Notre Dame commit, Owen Wafle on Sunday after his official visit to Ann Arbor.
Wafle, a 6-foot-2, 290-pound defensive lineman, is out of Princeton (New Jersey) Hun School. According to the 247Sports composite, he is a four-star recruit and ranked 406th in the country in the 2024 rankings.
Wafle was a one-time Fighting Irish commit before he decommitted. He held offers from Iowa, Michigan State, Oklahoma and West Virginia among others.
Here are the best Twitter reactions after Wafle committed to Michigan.
