David Ojabo committed to Michigan on July 2, 2018. He signed with the program Dec. 19 and enrolled on Jan. 6.

Ojabo hails from Blairstown (N.J.) Blair Academy, and it just so happens an old high school teammate could be joining him in Ann Arbor.

Blair Academy 2021 four-star defensive end Aaron Armitage picked up an offer from Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh on April 30 and is already planning out a summer trip to the college with his parents.

“I was pretty excited and still am,” Armitage told WolverinesWire. “They’re excited to offer me. It was amazing.”

Armitage said he’s close with Ojabo, even though they don’t constantly text message.

“When we do (text), he tells me constantly to keep working like I have no offer,” Armitage said. “I could possibly be playing next to him in two years.”

That’s right – Armitage could be right next to Ojabo at Michigan in a few short years. However, the same could be said with Penn State defensive end Jayson Oweh, who also played high school ball at Blair Academy.

Nonetheless, Michigan having Ojabo on its roster will help the Wolverines in Armitage’s recruitment.

“I think it will help in Michigan’s favor, plus I have a lot of interest in Michigan,” Armitage said. “With David being there, he can help me know what it’s like.”

The 6-foot-4, 240-pound defensive lineman has offers from Boston College, Duke, Kentucky, LSU, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Purdue, Rutgers, Syracuse, Vanderbilt, Virginia, West Virginia and Wisconsin.

When Armitage visits Michigan this summer, he wants to see the weight room. He also wants to see Harbaugh again and meet defensive line coach Shaun Nua, defensive coordinator Don Brown and the rest of the coaching staff.

“He’s pretty excited to talk to me,” Armitage said of Nua. “It should be even better when I meet him.”

Armitage is ranked No. 157 in the nation, No. 12 at strongside defensive end and No. 2 in New Jersey, per 247Sports.
