Michigan picked up its 13th football commitment for the 2012 recruiting class on Tuesday morning. Allen Gant, the son of former Michigan player Tony Gant, committed to the Wolverines live on WTKA.
Gant is from Sylvania, Ohio, and is considered a defensive back by Scout, which gives him three stars. Rivals has him listed as a wide receiver as opposed to a safety, as does ESPN. 24/7 Sports has him listed as a receiver, safety and athlete. Only Scout has rated him.
Gant's offer list, according to Rivals, includes Michigan, Boston College, Cincinnati, Illinois, Kentucky, Stanford and West Virginia, among others.
