Enow Etta Has Committed to Michigan Comment Count

The 2023 Michigan Football recruiting class finally has some momentum going and that was exemplified by today's commitment of 4* EDGE Enow Etta

Etta, from Colleyville, TX, had a long and winding recruitment. The Wolverines seemed like the favorites early on, then Etta's friend, Trey Wilson, was dropped from Michigan's recruiting board and Etta responded negatively. That led to a long period with the two sides drifting apart, a time when Michigan State seemed to be the favorite. Then interest heated back up in June, but it was not without its oddities, as Etta seemed strangely focused on what experts thought, souring on schools if too many recruiting insiders or fans thought he was going to pick that school. Etta claimed he would commit last week, then deleted the tweet minutes after sending it. It was an odd, extremely erratic process. In the end, Etta landed on the school that always made sense, given his interest in academics + football. 

As a consensus top 200 prospect, Etta gives Michigan their biggest win yet and lends credence to the idea that the defensive line seems likely to be the strongest part of the 2023 class. He joins fellow EDGE and recent commit Collins Achemapong, in addition to DL Brooks Bahr in the class. Names such as Kayden McDonald, Aymeric Koumba, and My'Keil Gardner could be next up on the list to join the defensive line. Etta is the fifth commit since the start of July, which should help get the ball rolling on momentum needed to salvage this recruiting class.

Welcome young man! I look forward to watching you stomp on buckeyes in the Big House for years to come.


It appears Santa is already bringing presents to the good guys. Next up for President Santa, uncork the NIL cannon.

A very disappointing "welcome" write up for a very athletically gifted, relentless, high ceiling young man. Come on  man-this isn't about the whiney, poor little fans' feelings. 

Love this young man's tape!!!

Welcome ENOW.

Next to drop might be the german DL Biegel.

And as a bonus, this will shut up the guys like Cameron Stokes crybabies claiming Jim is recruiting poorly, at least for a few weeks...

Impressive tape. Kid is huge and runs well for his size. he knocks people over and gets going fast.

Looks like more of an inside guy if he is going to add weight.

Etta, Bahr. Acheampong, Harbor?  Could make a terrifying DL

According to his Twitter handle, he (or his forebears) is a native of Cameroon, and he's a rhino. Having seen a rhino up close (and apparently in a foul mood), this is a good sign for the DL.
