Sherrone Moore's Michigan lands commitment from four-star TE Andrew Olesh to the class of 2025: Reports

Michigan fans were closely looking at four-star prospect tight end Andrew Olesh's commitment while enjoying the flipping of four-star cornerback Ivan Taylor from Notre Dame to the Wolverines. In less than an hour, they got the highly anticipated news that Olesh had also announced his commitment to head coach Sherrone Moore's program on Monday.

Olesh received an offer from the Wolverines in March. He narrowed his list down to a top-eight of Michigan, Penn State, Alabama, Florida State, Missouri, Florida, Mississippi and Pittsburgh back in April before giving his commitment on Monday.

“They said I could be the next Colston Loveland,” Olesh told On3. “Obviously, he’s a big-time dude and will probably be a first round draft pick. They compared me to him and told me I could fit into their offense well."

Andrew Olesh was considered a Penn State lean for much of the recruiting cycle and withstood a strong push from Alabama. He even visited Florida and Penn State in the weeks leading up to his Ann Arbor visit, which let him know in depth about the program.

“My favorite part of the trip was interacting with the tight ends and getting to know more about the program," Olesh said. "I enjoyed speaking with Colston Loveland, Marlin Klein, and Max Bredeson.”

Olesh now becomes the Wolverines’ second tight end commitment of the 2025 class, joining Eli Owens. He is also the fourth-highest-rated commitment, per 247Sport.
