Highly touted running back Javian Osborne from Forney, Texas, is nearing a decision between Michigan and Notre Dame, with a commitment date set for May 3. Ranked as the 83rd prospect in the country and the 6th best running back, Osborne has been a target for both schools, with Notre Dame recently taking the lead in his recruitment. Despite his admiration for Michigan’s tradition and run style, Osborne has expressed a slight edge towards Notre Dame due to their football program and academics.
Michigan will have one final chance to sway Osborne as he visits Ann Arbor for the Spring Game following his recent trip to South Bend. With childhood memories of watching Jabrill Peppers at Michigan, Osborne has always had a soft spot for the Wolverines and their style of play. Planning to be a vocal leader for whichever school he chooses, Osborne could potentially follow in the footsteps of dominant Michigan running backs.
Michigan will need to pull out all the stops to secure Osborne’s commitment, as he weighs his options between the two blue blood programs. With a strong connection to Michigan from a young age and a growing appreciation for Notre Dame’s program, Osborne’s decision will ultimately come down to which school provides the best fit for his future both on and off the field. Fans eagerly await Osborne’s decision on May 3 as he prepares to make his mark at a top-tier college football program.
