'26 VA RB Savion Hiter

[RandomUTfan]

And either of those guys can get paid heavily wherever they go.

Michigan and Tennessee are offering more than any other school in the country. I'm not making that up. It's why they are at the top. I'm not making that up either. I don't know why people have so much trouble accepting this. It's the same reason we will get Keys if we get him.

Yeah no one's saying that they aren't. But saying "they're at the top because they're offering the most" is diminishing the past year of relationship building and recruiting efforts. His family LOVES Tennessee. They also love Michigan. They don't love them because of the money. There's so much more to it.

When you say you’re not making that up, what you mean is you’re making that up.

Who would want to play where you're done in November? Bowl ban coming for sure.

They won’t do crap to Michigan. Much as I hate them, they will tell the ncaa to eat crap. Which is what all major programs should do at this point.

Never claimed to be an insider. Nothing I said takes one. But I won't argue on the internet. Got way better things to do with my time.

In other words “ I don’t know anything” equals “I’m not making it up”?

We better hope there are more than what you just said. Those are your feelings.

So you've seen the written offers or was in the room when the offers were made?

You don't know s***.

So now a Michigan DB is saying that he’s heading to Michigan. We will see.

 

[VolByLaw]

Hiter confidence still above 50 coming down the back nine 9 of his commitment?

It’s come down some for me… I won’t say that he’s going to Michigan because I don’t know… What I do know is he has went dark on everybody based off me talking to different circles in the last couple of days…

well. that tracks. guess we'll have to wait and see. dang was hoping we were gonna get over the elite offensive hump this cycle.

to the porthole...

 

[Pawleysvol]

well. that tracks. guess we'll have to wait and see. just don't understand why we can't get over the hump with big time recruits?

Moa not a big time recruit? Rouse not a big time recruit? Mike Matthews not a big time recruit? David Sanders not a big time recruit? Faizon Brandon not. Big time recruit?

I could keep going.

Can’t wait for y’all to complain if we don’t get him “we led until the very end” bs even tho literally everyone is just guessing bc the fam isn’t saying a word

He's literally the ONLY RB we're recruiting this cycle. So, yeah, missing on him would be a big deal. I understand you choose optimism. That's fine. But it's realism, not pessimism, to say it's a big deal when you miss on the only guy you're recruiting for a key position. It wouldn't be the end of the world, but it would definitely be a grade-A nut shot.

Choose to believe until otherwise.

Hope we land Hiter, but I believe 2 seasons with Bishop, Lewis, and Morris will still be very good and there's a chance to land an elite back in 2027.

I just see this as AP trying to give the kid his moment. Not worried.

Obviously, coaches and media are doing their best to get intel here, but Hiter and his family have been adamant about keeping this one completely quiet. I don’t believe Hiter will inform anyone outside of his family.

Next week’s commitment will be Hiter’s final decision. He fully intends for his recruitment to be shut down, so he can focus on his senior year. Hiter told me as much when I visited him in the offseason, and I believe him. There will be no late NIL runs. Hiter doesn’t love the process and wants to be done with it.

Earlier today, Virginia native and Michigan freshman Shamari Earls hinted at Hiter siding with the Wolverines in an interview elsewhere. Earls has been an invaluable weapon for Michigan on the recruiting trail, especially this cycle as he helped the Wolverines lure Travis Johnson, Markel Dabney and Andre Clarke.

Both Earls and Michigan freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood have done their best to recruit Hiter. The same goes for members of U-M’s 2026 recruiting class. However, I think Earls’ comments were based more on hope and gut feeling than concrete intel.

Hiter has always been a bit of a lone wolf and isn’t the most receptive to peer recruiting. Even on his official visit, Hiter took care of his own business while the three Virginia recruits mentioned above spent most of the weekend together. Hiter isn’t arrogant. He’s simply a private, small town kid.

It’s probably best for everyone to minimize anything that could potentially have a negative impact on Hiter. We should all respect his privacy down the stretch. Thus, my reporting on Hiter will be limited over the next week. It’s best for me, the site and the program.

I know everybody wants to know how I’m feeling. My gut says Michigan, but again, I really don’t know here. It’s a close race with Tennessee. The Volunteers are still very, very much a threat.

Latest update from the Michigan side...the fact is nobody knows and likely won't until he announces. I'm still optimistic we can pull this one out. Rouse and Moa's recruitments went dark just like this in the final days.
