@BHugh_215 Doesn't make TJ a lock to #Michigan or anything, but it definitely increases chances of landing him.

But that was all of three days ago in an article about him and Damien Harris. Let's hope they're only right about one.

My first UM game he ran back the opening kickoff for a TD against Houston. Always remember that when I think about him.
This is very,very cool.

Watched it on TV with a friend who was also an Aero Eng grad from U-M along with some of his Texas friends. They were all anticipating a Houston blow-out win.
Then Wheatley ran that kick back for a TD and my buddy and I were all grins from that point on.

We were IN Houston and they were his friends, not mine.

It would be cool if Wheatley Jr. was Harbaugh's first committ. I feel like a coach's first committ is a little bit of a distinguishment.
Of course, it would also be cool if the first committ was Iman Marshall, Roquan Smith, or some other stud.

Fred Jackson has done an admirable job both from a recruiting and coaching standpoint for over two decades.
Wheatley will be a teriffic successor - and the same age Jackson when he started.
I'm looking forward to as much running game success in the next 22 years under Wheatley as Jackson's tenure produced in the past 22.

His name is Wheatley. He's a legend at Michigan. Can we spell his name correctly? That's dumber than writing Ty Issac.
January 9th, 2015 at 7:48 PM ^
I didn't pay attention to my spelling I was so excited to get the post out to everyone.
January 9th, 2015 at 7:49 PM ^
Thought I owed it to you

He's gonna recruit the hell out of Detroit, too.

He's 42! A man plus two.
January 9th, 2015 at 8:03 PM ^
Seem to remember he played for a pro team out there for a while.

Out of the park and into space.
January 9th, 2015 at 7:31 PM ^
...and welcome officially to Michigan once again, Tyrone Wheatley.
January 9th, 2015 at 7:32 PM ^
Woo hoo! Can't wait for football season!

Praise the Lord, Halelluiah & pass the drumsticks

better than Hart in almost every conceivable way. Bigger, stronger, faster, with uncommon acceleration. I love Hart, but Wheatley had Walker-Jackson talent. His one deficiency was his tendency to get hurt.
January 9th, 2015 at 9:11 PM ^
Saying Hart "couldn't hold a candle" to those three is silly. Hart was a beast who would NOT go down from early in his freshman season. Fergodsake, he had 200+ yards in 3 straight games as a freshman! And lest we forget his fumble recovery + first down run in the 4th quarter at MSU his senior year. Without that play, State probably wins the damn game.

My wife and I decided to name our son Jamie during a Michigan game Jamie Morris was playing in when she was expecting. And when he was born, that's what we named him.
Jamie Morris was an awe inspiring Michigan player. The name suits our son.
Kinda thankful my wife wasn't pregnant when Tyrone Wheatley played, though.

Wheatley is the coach I was really hoping we would land. What a staff Harbaugh has put together.
Isaac and Green should benefit tremendously from Wheatley and Drevno on the OL
Remember when Desmond said Peppers was the only player who seemed to have a fire under him in practice? I cannot wait for Spring practice, better yet I'm keeping my fingers crossed to buy season tickets for the first time!
