Along with the rest of his family, the five-star pros- pect enjoyed his official visit. Despite Michigan's struggles on the field in 2014, Lucier-South holds the Wolverines in high regard.

However, another hometown school, USC, is back in the mix, and could make a run, as well. Lucier-South plans to take all five of his allotted official visits before coming to a college decision, and then make his commitment at the U.S. Army All-American Bowl Jan. 3 in San Antonio. ❏ MISCELLANEOUS NOTES • Michigan's coaching staff hasn't wrapped up it 2015 class yet, but already the Wolverines are casting an eye toward the future.
