With Early Signing Day for high school recruits taking place later this week, Fenwick High School senior Nate Marshall has made a major decision.
After originally committing to the University of Michigan in April, Marshall switched to Auburn University in August. But Marshall announced on his Instagram page Dec. 3 that he has dropped his pledge to Auburn and recommitted to Michigan. This comes one day before the Early Signing Period, which takes place Dec. 4 to 6.
Marshall, a defensive end/wide receiver who was named the Chicago Catholic League/East Suburban Catholic Conference White Tony Lawless Player of the Year this fall, is rated by recruiting service Rivals as the state’s top player in the Class of 2025 as well as the #2 weak-side defensive end and #26 overall prospect in the country. Another service, 247 Sports, has him #3 in Illinois’s Class of 2025, and the #8 defensive lineman and #103 overall prospect nationally.
