## Resource

Michigan’s 2027 recruiting class is heating up with the surprising rise of Amanaki Henoa, a three-star defensive lineman from New Zealand who just started high school football after playing rugby. Already ranked 211st among DLs and 35th in Utah, he’s got two crystal ball predictions on 247Sports—and Michigan’s Lewis Powell extended an offer back in July. While schools like BYU, Texas Tech, and Penn State are also chasing him, Michigan’s growing West Coast pipeline—powered by coaches with Utah ties—is paying off: they’ve already landed two Utah commits for 2027 and are trending for more in 2028. This Midwest-meets-West Coast strategy could be key to their future dominance. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
