While Michigan\’s coaching staff is one of the most trusted in terms of judging talent, some prospects are so elite it\’s not even a question. And the latest 2017 offer is out to one of the sure-fire five star types, Juwan Burgess.
Burgess, or \”Freakshow Joe\” as his highlight tape is called, is just that: a freak. He has the athleticism, versatility and talent of few high school prospects and looks like a top 10 player in the class (IMO). However, he is not ranked on any of the major recruiting sites. But that is likely to change after more elite offers role in and he\’s able to get his name out there more on the camp circuit.
He spoke with Go Blue Wolverine\’s Josh Newkirk about the \”special moment\” of receiving his offer from Michigan defensive coordinator DJ Durkin ($). He also told Newkirk about his desire to visit so he can learn more about the program and University.
It\’s still early but Burgess is definitely a name to keep an eye on, just like his super impressive highlights:
