Elite 4-Star EDGE Announces Commitment To Legendary Big Ten Program

Four-star EDGE Julius Holly announced his commitment to the Michigan Wolverines on Saturday. Holly chose the Wolverines over Georgia, Ole Miss, and Texas A&M.

Holly, a 6-foot-3, 230-pound native of Alpharetta, Georgia, ranks as the No. 27 edge rusher in the class of 2025. He is also the No. 295 overall prospect and No. 35 player in Georgia, according to the On3 Industry Rankings .

"100% committed #GoBlue," Holly posted on social media after his commitment.

Holly finished his junior season with 57 total tackles, eight sacks, three pass breakups, and one forced fumble. He officially visited Texas A&M, Stanford, and Ole Miss before committing to the Wolverines.

He becomes the 13th member of the Wolverines' 2025 recruiting class , which is headlined by four-star defensive lineman Nate Marshall and four-star safety Kainoa Winston.

Following Holly's commitment, Michigan's 2025 recruiting class ranks No. 14 nationally and No. 4 in the Big Ten. He is the seventh Top 300 prospect to join the Wolverines' 2025 class.

Holly is expected to develop into a significant part of the Michigan defense led by defensive coordinator Don Martindale. Holly gives the Wolverines another potential threat off the edge in 2025.
