"2027 6'5 240 4 Star EDGE | Jayce Brewer committed to Michigan!!!" Host: TJ Ronin (MichiganVOCFB) Aired: May 10, 2026 Length: ~17 minutes Main Topic: Breakdown of Jayce Brewer’s commitment to Michigan, scouting report, huddle tape analysis, and recruiting class context. Opening & Context (0:00–1:02) Shoutout to FanDuel (sponsor). Mother’s Day appreciation message, including those who lost mothers. Jayce Brewer committed on May 9, 2026. Clip of Brewer announcing: “For the next three to four years, I’ll be playing at University of Michigan.” Mom visibly excited. Recruitment Background (1:13–2:51) Not always a Michigan lean — as recently as Feb 24, 2026, Steve Wilfong put Indiana (reigning national champions) as favorite. Michigan pulled a top Indiana prospect from the defending champs’ backyard — big win. Player Profile: 6'5", 240 lbs EDGE from Indianapolis, IN. 4-star, 2027 class. Chose Michigan over Indiana, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Oregon + 30+ other offers. TJ believes he’s slightly underrated (thinks closer to top ~300 nationally). Scouting Report Highlights (from Andrew Ivans, May 8, 2026) (3:21–5:23) Thick, strong EDGE who can slip blocks and create negative plays. Explosive first step — hits gaps faster than linemen can react. Young for his grade → expected major physical development ahead. Played 5-tech / 3-tech in junior season → easy pass rush production via initial thrust. Fluid lower half, good bend, can split double teams. Needs to expand pass-rush package for more pressures (TJ disagrees somewhat — says he already has a solid “bag”). Also plays tight end on offense → shows athleticism. Projects as multi-year contributor and potential key piece with development. Huddle Tape Breakdown (5:31–9:07) TJ walks through tape and praises: Dip move under tackle to QB pressure (multiple examples). Explosive first step + gap shooting. Juke/spin moves to beat tackles. Bend + low pad level as a junior. Power bull rush — throws linemen back 5+ yards. Strong anchor vs. double teams — doesn’t get moved off the spot. Holds edge responsibility while disrupting plays. Consistent strength/leverage — rarely displaced. Creates havoc (pressures, forced errors, even a turnover). Overall Tape Impression: Solid foundation with multiple moves already for a junior. High-floor football player who stands out on film. Fits what Michigan staff (Whittingham, Jay Hill, Larry Black, etc.) look for. Michigan Recruiting Class Context (9:33–13:29) Current Big Ten/Composite rankings context: Michigan sitting ~30th nationally (early), 5 blue chips, ~91 avg rating. Notes other programs (USC, UCLA, Oregon, Penn State, Ohio State) moving fast. Current notable commits: Jakari Lipy (strong OL, possible guard). Ricard Kitchen (EDGE — pairs well with Brewer). Camden Leotti (top QB per ESPN). Others: Sydney Rolu, Maxwell Miles, Louis Esposito. Brewer + Kitchen = strong foundational EDGE duo (both ~6'5"/6'6", 240 lbs, high-floor guys). Allows Michigan to swing big for a potential elite 3rd EDGE. Optimistic on rest of class: RB, WR, TE, OL, DB looking promising. Official visits starting soon; May expected to be big. Broader Program Notes (13:38–17:04) Positive behind-the-scenes donor/NIL activity ($2B ROI on $20M investment rumor). Major donor event in Boca Raton / FAU hosted by Ellisons — heavy hitters in attendance (McCarthy, Underwood, Cars, Corum, etc.). TJ emphasizes Michigan has “arrived” in the current NIL/transfer era. Culture and coaching staff (Dusty May, Kyle Whittingham, etc.) praised as proactive and healthy. Closing: Go Blue, see you Tuesday 8 PM live show. TJ’s Overall Take: Excellent get for Michigan — high-floor, developing EDGE with a good skill set already. Solid building block for the 2027 class. Very encouraged by recruiting direction and program momentum. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
