Ford, before he chose the Block M hat among the five that were in front of him, said he was looking for a winning program and a good coaching staff and environment.

“They’ve got the No. 1 academic program,” Ford said when asked why he chose Michigan. “They’ve got the biggest stadium. They’ve got a good fan base.”

He is Michigan’s 19th commitment to the 2027 class.
