Michigan has offered two in-state prospects in the 2028 recruiting class. Both reside in the Detroit area, including Harper Woods High athlete Deandre Bidden .
The Wolverines were one of the first Power 4 teams to enter the mix for Bidden earlier in the offseason during the spring evaluation period. So far, Bidden has visited Ann Arbor three times, most recently for last month’s annual BBQ at The Big House.
“I liked it,” Bidden told The Wolverine . “It was the first time ever I went to the BBQ.”
Before the barbecue, Bidden traveled to the stadium with his Harper Woods teammates for a 7v7 event. He also attended spring camp practice as part of Sound Mind Sound Body. All three trips allowed him to get a feel of the resources that Michigan players are allotted throughout their careers.
“The facilities and the campus, I liked it,” Bidden said. “It was a good college experience.”
The incoming freshman also participated in training instruction that Ron Bellamy oversaw at the barbecue.
