Isaiah Marshall, a seventh-grade quarterback at MacArthur Academy in Southfield, Michigan, has been offered a scholarship to play at Michigan, according to his father.
Wolverines coach Jim Harbaugh made the offer after viewing tape of the 13-year-old signal-caller, Brian Marshall told The Detroit News.

“Isaiah plays quarterback for the Southfield Falcons, which is the youth team since they really don’t do the middle school ball here,” Brian Marshall told the newspaper.
“He has a couple of national championships and they finished third in the country this year, so they have some good kids around him. It’s a travel team and they represent Michigan pretty well,” said Isaiah’s father, who played for Northwestern 20 years ago.
