Turner (5-10, 185), who is ranked the No. 3 running back in Georgia for 2018 by Scout, picked the Wolverines over Georgia, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Tennessee, Wisconsin, Miami, Nebraska, and many other top programs.

“I want to thank God for all the opportunities and blessings,” Turner wrote on Twitter. “Next I would like to thank my family and coaches. … With lots of prayer and thought I believe that the right decision has been made. I would like to announce my commitment to the University of Michigan.”

Turner is the fifth commitment in Michigan’s 2018 class.
