In a stunning twist that has sent ripples across the college football recruiting landscape, five-star prospect Caden Prieskorn, who was previously committed to Ole Miss, has flipped his commitment to the Michigan Wolverines. The decision came following an unplanned midnight campus visit to Ann Arbor, marking one of the most dramatic recruiting stories of the year.
Prieskorn, a highly touted tight end, had long been a cornerstone of Ole Miss’s 2024 recruiting class. However, rumors of his wavering commitment began to circulate after Michigan extended a late offer and intensified their recruitment efforts. According to sources close to the situation, Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh and his staff orchestrated a last-minute visit, which culminated in Prieskorn making a surprise decision to switch allegiances.
“I felt something special at Michigan,” Prieskorn explained in an early-morning press conference. “The tradition, the coaching staff, and the opportunity to compete for championships—it all clicked for me. It was a tough choice, but I believe this is where I’m meant to be.”
The visit included a late-night tour of the Michigan facilities, conversations with current players, and a meeting with Harbaugh himself. Prieskorn reportedly left Ann Arbor overwhelmed by the Wolverines’ vision for his role in their offense.
Ole Miss fans were blindsided by the announcement, with many expressing frustration on social media. Michigan fans, however, erupted in celebration, viewing Prieskorn’s commitment as a significant win in their push to solidify a top-ranked recruiting class.
With Prieskorn now onboard, Michigan’s offense gains a dynamic playmaker who could contribute immediately. As for Ole Miss, the loss raises questions about how they’ll recover in what has already been a competitive recruiting cycle.
The midnight commitment saga underscores the unpredictable nature of modern college football recruiting, where every moment—and every visit—counts.
