Michigan's football program has made a significant leap in the 2025 recruiting class rankings, climbing from the lower 50s to 15th overall, thanks to a wave of recent commitments. A standout in this surge is Julius Holly, a four-star EDGE defender, who is currently the 294th ranked prospect nationally according to On3.
Holly, hailing from Alpharetta, Georgia, stands at 6-foot-3 and weighs 230 pounds. He is considered the 22nd best EDGE in his class. Michigan has emerged as the frontrunner for his commitment, following his official visit to the campus on June 7th. His recruitment has drawn considerable attention, with experts predicting a high likelihood that he will choose the Wolverines.
Last season, Holly showcased his skills by accumulating 57 tackles, eight sacks, and three pass deflections. His potential addition is seen as a major boost for Michigan’s defensive line. The coaching staff's NFL experience is also seen as a major draw for recruits like Holly.
As the announcement date approaches, Michigan holds a 93.4-percent chance of securing Holly's commitment, signaling a strong position for the Wolverines in enhancing their defensive roster for the future.
