A Big 10 program is reportedly coming after one of the Georgia Bulldogs’ 2027 commits.
According to 247Sports’ Blair Angulo, the Michigan Wolverines offered 2027 three-star wide receiver Gavin Honore this week.
Honore, 5-foot-10/170 pounds from Las Vegas, NV, is rated in 247Sports’ composite rankings as the No. 71 wide receiver in the nation and the No. 5 player in the state of Nevada.
Gavin Honore has a connection to Michigan
Honore, a “shifty” slot receiver, told 247Sports that it will be difficult for a program to flip him from Georgia.
Michigan, however, has a connection to Honore that could give the Wolverines a chance in this recruiting battle.
Angulo noted that new Michigan wide receivers coach Micah Simon recruited Honore at Utah before making the move to Ann Arbor with new Wolverines head coach Kyle Whittingham (previously the head coach at Utah).
“Michigan offered Georgia commit Gavin Honore this week and it’s a noteworthy one because the shifty slot receiver had been in communication with new receivers coach Micah Simon at Utah,” wrote Angulo. “Honore, who made the move from Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei to Las Vegas Bishop Gorman earlier this off-season, is hoping to set up a trip with the Wolverines in the coming weeks.”
Honore told On3 this week that Michigan is “high” on his radar.
“What excites me is that I’ve known the new staff for a while so knowing that I’m still a priority for them is pretty cool,” said Honore. “And Michigan has always been a top program so that makes them high on my radar.
Honore isn’t a highly rated recruit, but he clearly has the attention of some of the top programs in the sport. We’ll see if Georgia can hold on to the talented slot receiver.
