2010 recruiting

Sentrel Henderson, Sharif Floyd not at the game

By BlueGoM — October 25th, 2009 at 10:06 AM — 5 comments

  • 2010 recruiting

FYI, I was listening to local sports talk radio in Ann Arbor (WTKA) and according to Sam Webb, Sentrel Henderson and Sharif Floyd were not at the game, despite some (early) reports that they would be in attendance. I read earlier in the week that Floyd wouldn't be coming, but just wanted to throw this out there for all to uh, enjoy? There was apparently at least some credible rumor that Henderson would come, but uh, yeah, didn't happen.

Christian Jones interested part 2

  • Christian Jones

I'm know Tom VH basically stated he was going to FSU when I first posted an article o him possibly being interested, but even FSU's Rivals site doesn't sound so sure right now.

http://michigan.rivals.com/barrier_noentry.asp?ReturnTo=&sid=&script=con...

Even through the Big Will show Sam Webb constantly maintained Will would end up here. It sounds as if there is questions in the WarChant camp concerning that with Jones. Maybe it's just my desire to see better LB play or wishful thinking, but if we can get him on campus at least there's a chance.

PSU confirmed recruit visits

So yesterday we had some unsubstantiated rumors from some trustworthy posters. How about some some substantiated confirmations from some untrustworthy posters?

I'll start:
Alex Smith is coming on an unofficial this weekend according to a direct from Alex on ESPN insider. There's got to be 3 or 4 more prospects this weekend. Who else has confirmed so far?

It appears that 4* OLB Christian Jones will be making an official visit to the Big House thanks to the recruiting efforts of Rod Smith and the teams much improved play per GBW.

Feed the Beast...(No, this is not a Charlie Weiss Post)...Recruiting Defense

By BILG — October 4th, 2009 at 12:15 PM — 34 comments
Filed under:
  • 2010 recruiting
  • defense
  • Greg Robinson
  • Lloyd Carr
1) My previous post was not intended to be a Lloyd bashing (I have done enough of that for 10 lifetimes), but instead a response to those likening this loss to those of the LC era. My point is simply this is not of the same mold. There are many ways to lose, and many ways to get out-coached, but this year's version of UM-MSU was not a case of the significantly more talented and experienced team allowing the game to stay close and finding a way to lose (as was often the case with LC). UM got outplayed at the line of scrimmage and deserved to lose. My argument has always been that Lloyd had stacked teams and they played mediocre football. This year's version of UM is indeed a mediocre team, so to expect greatness is premature. 
2) LC was a solid coach for the first part of his tenure. Things really changed for the worse after the 2000 Orange bowl. The only big win after that game was 2003 OSU. Yes, Lloyd was consistent and a good man. But given all the NFL talent he recruited (and look at their impact in the league...Brady, Woodley, Jackson, Edwards, Breaston, etc), to only have 1 BCS bowl victory is an underachievement. IMO, in his last few years he held down the fort, but never reinforced it, and the game was beginning to pass him by.  Point being....please let's not go down the path of every time we lose a game we compare it to the LC era.....We are not a top 10 team yet, let alone a top 10 team losing to unranked opponents.
3) The defensive recruiting comment is the most interesting response I have seen. I totally agree, that RR needs to do more to bring in big time recruits on that side of the ball. Is Greg Robinson the right man for this job?....I have no idea, but it is clear that RR has pretty much entrusted him with this unit, so he can focus on the offense. Getting speed and talent at skill positions on offense will not be a problem given the fun and gun system RR is installing. But to really compete at the BCS level we need speed on defense. "SEC speed" is a myth when looking at skill position players (recievers / RBs are fast at all big-time programs in the country). Where this argument has some validity is at the D-lines and LBs, where they really are faster in the south.....(Play football year round.) Skill position players in the north often run track in HS, so are not as much at a disadvantage when compared to their peers in the south. Point being....ahs22 raises a great concern, are we recruiting enough talent on defense?  I think if we can pull of some of the fours star talent still on the board we will be ok  We have a lot of defensive recruits still around with at least medium interest in UM......Cullen Christian, Dior Mathis, Olaniyan, Bryant, Furman, Ifill, etc....Come on Down!!!!
