Donovan Peoples-Jones, the state's prized high school player in the 2017 class, will announce his decision Thursday night, and the Wolverines are firmly in the mix.

FULL LISTWhich schools are Donovan Peoples-Jones considering?

Peoples-Jones holds scholarship offers from 24 schools, but has narrowed his list down to five finalists -- Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Florida and Florida State.

The only five-star player in the state this season, Peoples-Jones is the top wide receiver in the nation and the No. 11 player overall, according to 247 Sports.

Many expect Peoples-Jones to join Cass Tech teammate Jaylen Kelly-Powell in Ann Arbor, but nothing will be final until he announces at 8:30 p.m.

If Michigan lands Peoples-Jones, it will cap off back-to-back days in which the Wolverines landed a top-notch wide receiver. Four-star Connecticut wideout Tarik Black chose Michigan over Alabama and others Wednesday afternoon.

Ambry Thomas, of Detroit Martin Luther King High School; Josh Ross, of St. Mary's High School in West Bloomfield; and Corey Malone-Hatcher, of St. Joseph High School have already committed to the Wolverines from Michigan.
