Best RB duo in the class!!! Go Blue!!
There’s one!
Go Blue!,
more tonight or just 2 tomorrow and one Tuesday?
2 tomorrow. Ojabo and maybe Sainristil, though i've heard Giles Jackson's name thrown out as well.
1 Tuesday. Quinten Johnson
Very interested to see what happens with Giles Jackson and Wandale Robinson. Both are APB but could be recruited as just slot receivers or offensive weapons in general.
I’d be surprised if we took Jackson, Sainristil, and Robinson. While we need to stock a position we really don’t have on our current roster, we already have George Johnson III. Can’t see us taking four slot backs in one cycle.
I think George is a slot WR, but agree that we don't need any more RB in this class
It's looking like Jackson had some of the best numbers at the Opening. He might be a take now for the staff. It might be a one spot for Robinson and Jackson and whoever commits first gets it. Not sure. I like both and would be happy with either.
I thought Sainristil was a DB recruit.
He’s listed as a DB, but according to Sam Webb, he’s being recruited as a slot.
The only other RB take is Crouch, and he’s defense first. Sainristil, Jackson, and Robinson are all slot types.
My guess is that ROBINSON will look elsewhere after Gray's commitment. Sainristil is a former teammate of Lewis Cine, and both he and Jackson are amazing athletes. Would love to have them both if we have room.
The 2019 class really signals the move to a modern offense.
Welcome Eric, way to GoBlue!
Upon further review, just found out Eric kinda wanted to be a buckeye but I guess Urbz thought there were so many RBs in Fla and Tex and it would be a shame not to offer all of them, so no room for a guy whose Uncle played for them.
Scorned RB, running behind scorned guards, coached by a scorned Oline coach. Here they come, Columbus, and fury comes with them.
What a pickup! Let’s get 2 more in 2 days
Nice APB, should be a nice compliment to the offense! Looking forward to seeing him jet around the field and score some tiddies!
Welcome, E!
Gray and Charbonnet will be the mayors of TD City.
How u mean?
I think he meant "co-mayors".
/s
This is so awesome! Welcome Eric!!! I cant wait to see you and Zach run wild at the Big House!
And on behalf of JayBaugh and the entire staff, I would like to give a big F&ck You to all the concern trolls who will probably be silent tonight. Albatross won’t post here again for 2 months.
Honestly, with how this season is going to play out, they probably won't ever post again under their known names. But no need to mention them now ust to give yourself credibility.
Not sure how to gain credibility on an anonymous internet board or why you think that is something I would care about.
either way, I just love hunting troll and there is nothing like the smell of roasted troll on a Sunday night.
I wasn't trying to be a concern troll, but I was definitely concerned, and I think it was justified.
Here's what I remember was going on: Michigan was racking up the 3-stars (and below) fairly early in the 2019/2020 cycle. Dixon, a guy who fit the much-hyped Viper role, was trending hard to Penn State, and it looked like (and still looks like) Michigan would miss on both in-state 5 star OTs. That's pretty dire stuff.
...and then Zach Charbonnet commits from out of the blue (not even Sam saw it coming), with most CBs projecting him to USC, leading to a cascade of pretty good news culminating in this announcement.
Best Runningback duo in 2019 is coming to Michigan boys!!!!!
This guy can ball!
Our RB commits combined for a billion yards and a million touchdowns last year.
The funny thing is that only a slight exaggeration.
Boom! Nice pick up, let’s get Harrison next
Again. GREAT.
YES! Gray and Charbonnet make for an amazing RB class.
Gray has speed, agility, vision, strength, and great hands. I expect he will contribute as a freshman and make his mark as one of the great Michigan RBs before his time is done.
So glad he chose Michigan! GO BLUE!
One day he will rise up and throw down his enemy, and he will fall from the high place and break the mountainside, where he will smite it in his ruin. And then he will be Eric [the] White.
If I could upvote this I would x1000
Awesome. Great 2019 class of RBs with Gray and Charbonnet.
go Blue.
Great pick up. This RB haul isn’t too shabby. Go Blue!
His film looks great. This isn't Derrick Green... we seem to have gotten an uptick in RB recruiting. Shit it only took over a decade....
Just watched the video and dude is just casually rapping 405 in it.
Loved the commit video. Worth the wait. This guy is electric. Welcome aboard.
A raise in the works?
Looks like he might transferring for his senior high school season. His Hudl page team history shows IMG Academy for the 2018 season.
All I need to know about the kid is that Alabama was pursuing him. They only go after top quality RBs and are pretty good at scouting them out. Seems like we got a really good one
Incredible pickup - Two elite backs, arguably the top two on the wish list for RBs across the country for our staff!
The gaudy HS numbers and ridiculous highlights are too much fun. The future is bright in Ann Arbor! ?
As he reminds me a bit of JK Dobbins, I was very surprised to learn that OSU chose not to offer him, especially considering his father played there.
How far are we away from a full recruiting class. I thought we had only 18 spots for 2019. Attrition could open a few more. If Shea and the OL perform well, Michigan could win the B1G and make the playoffs. If this were to happen a lot more top ranked recruits will want to sign. Any ways Eric Gray is a great pickup at RB. Welcome aboard Eric!
Young Saquon Barkley
zach Charbonnet looks like Chris Perry
Where o where did the Harbaugh can't recruit go?
O where o where, did it go?
With it's nasty comments and lack of insight,
O where o where did it go?
Got my guy!
Used to be able to embed...can't get it to work now so here's the link to a tweet from Barton Simmons of Gray from "The Opening".
"You can see the suddenness here out of Eric Gray, probably the best RB out here on Sunday"
