After decommitting from Virginia Tech on April 29, Baltimore (Md.) St. Frances Academy 2021 four-star outside linebacker Aaron Willis opened his recruitment back up.

The 6-foot, 200-pound star has offers from Virginia Tech, Alabama, Clemson, Florida, Georgia Tech, LSU, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Pittsburgh, Tennessee, Texas A&M and Virginia.

Willis told WolverinesWire moments after his decommitment from the Hokies that Michigan is “always” in the mix.

He had been committed to Virginia Tech since Sept. 21, 2018.

Back on Feb. 16, Willis took an unofficial visit to Michigan. His thoughts: “Best visit I’ve been to so far.”

Willis said Michigan is special to him because of the overall energy of the defense and the relationships he’s forming with the defensive coaches for the Wolverines, specifically defensive coordinator Don Brown, defensive assistant Anthony Campanile and defensive line coach Shaun Nua.

If Willis ends up in Ann Arbor, he would join two current St. Frances Academy teammates in 2020 four-star linebacker Osman Savage and 2020 three-star offensive tackle Micah Mazzccua. Savage committed Jan. 25, and Mazzccua pledged exactly one month later.

Willis said he is “very close” with Savage, and the pair are “like brothers.”

“I mean, it would be amazing to play with him in college,” Willis said of Savage.

Willis is ranked No. 162 in the nation, No. 10 at outside linebacker and No. 4 in Maryland, per 247Sports. The 247Sports Crystal Ball has one prediction for Alabama.
