Virginia DE, Indiana OT are expected to visit Michigan this weekend | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press

Michigan does not have any verbal commitments from defensive end prospects so that position is still one of need in the 2009 recruiting class, making the 6-foot-4, 260-pound Hill’s visit of exceptional importance. Hill’s father scheduled the trip with Michigan assistant coach Fred Jackson and the family is supposed to be in Ann Arbor on Friday.

“I was scheduled to come up a couple weeks back, but we had to cancel so we had to work (a new visit) out,” Hill said. “I know that (Michigan) is a big tradition and they are pretty much all about football. They really haven’t picked up any (defensive ends) and could use me.”

DE Will Hill (6-4 260) out of Williamsburg, VA says that USC has offered him a scholarship. His other offers are from Virginia, Maryland, Michigan, Penn State, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Connecticutt. Hill is a large defensive end at 260 pounds and feels he may get even larger. "I think I could still put on 10 to 15 pounds and still play on the end. That's my position." He had 60 tackles and 8 sacks in his junior year. Hill feels he is a balanced player that plays both the run and pass very well but is aware he always needs to work on his craft. " You always have to be working to get faster, stronger, and quicker off the ball. You have to or you'll be left behind." Hill does not have any favorites but says academics is important to his decision. He would also like to go to a school that has a diverse student body. Hill mentioned that he was impressed with Maryland's diversity. He likes Michigan and their academics. Hill does want to learn about each school that has offered him. Ray Rychleski is his USC recruiter. He runs a 4.85 40.
