There's nine 4* players in Michigan. About half of them are already committed.
There's another 4 or 5 that you could maybe consider above mid-tier 3* recruits. Four of them are already committed.
This was about the same thing in the 2018 class. Eight-ish 4* recruits, 3 to 5 more upper tier 3* recruits, and then just middle of the road players.
I don't really understand what is the point of focusing on that state? There's not much meat on the bone, and what meat there is, is all going to Michigan and State.
