Spring Roster Is Up.
Not sure if they weighed in today or if these are the same heights and weights as
Fall '14. Cue the WD signal and let the pre-over-somanyprefixes- analysis begin

so skinny he has to run around in the shower to get wet.
but in actuality being lean it is a blessing as i tell my own children. all of them are lean-beans, and the 5 boys love football beyond description. i don't think any of them will be thick though, at least not until well into their 20's. as much as we prize these big guys, the burden and weight most of them carry the rest of their lives is brutal. my freshman year training camp at U of M i was the youngest, smallest guy on the team but i finally started to gain weight and grow then. still didn't get full height until my early 20's, nor weight until late 20's.
February 23rd, 2015 at 8:58 PM ^
Holy cow, I'm 6'5" 230 and I'm still on the skinnier side.

I could probably fit in 28 waist pants, but they don't make them with a 36" inseam, so I buy 30's and wear a belt.
February 23rd, 2015 at 9:23 PM ^
That is almost terrifyingly-thin. I now have this vision in my head.
February 23rd, 2015 at 11:16 PM ^
Man, thought I was bad at 6'5" 170

Men and Women...
Men: "Dude, you are too skinny."
Women: "You look amazing!"

pretty much the same height and weight as Drake as well. My girlfriend is constantly mad at me and my cooking habits because I can eat whatever I want and not gain anything. Gaining and losing weight isn't as simply as some people think.
However, I am not too worried about Drake. I don't think his playing weight will have much impact on the health of his hamstring, which is the big concern.

Ugh please don't mention tapeworms... having to memorize all sorts of parasitic infections and then look at pictures/samples of them is sickening enough in school.
Yack.

I notice a few walk-ons that I've never heard of.
Leon Johnson- 5'10 DL from E. English Village- hopefully pad level will be good there.
Nick Volk- FB from Frankenmuth- Winner winner, chicken dinner.

Hoping he seizes the RB job. If he maintains speed at that size he is going to be fun to watch
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:41 PM ^
February 23rd, 2015 at 10:39 PM ^
Wait, doesn't he have to sit out this year or did I miss something?
February 23rd, 2015 at 10:47 PM ^

February 24th, 2015 at 8:34 AM ^
He is willfully forgetting last season. Good idea.
February 24th, 2015 at 7:21 AM ^
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:30 PM ^
Blake Bars at 6'5" 281 lbs - not going to see the field at OG at that size.
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:44 PM ^
February 23rd, 2015 at 8:35 PM ^
Make him a Harbaugh TE, providing he has decent feet.
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:31 PM ^
Brady Pallante is a 276lbs fullback? Harbaugh is a MADMAN!
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:32 PM ^
BTW, I don't think these weights are updated, but still he is a BIG FB! Kudos Brady!
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:34 PM ^
February 23rd, 2015 at 8:43 PM ^
They did.
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:39 PM ^
Shallman listed as a "RB." He is bigger, but I HOPE we can get a little "Toby Gerhart" out of him. If not move him to H-Back, TE, or DE. Seems like a tough kid.
February 23rd, 2015 at 9:58 PM ^
Gritty, for sure. Lots of grit. Toughness. Not the most athletic, but such grit.
February 23rd, 2015 at 10:26 PM ^
February 24th, 2015 at 6:32 AM ^
Scrappy lunch pail kind of guy. Real high character, great teammate.
February 24th, 2015 at 12:10 PM ^
Get a little "Heisman finalist" out of him or a little "white RB" out of him? The latter is probably more likely ;)
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:39 PM ^
New walk on faces
- #13 Matt Mitchell, QB from Cincinnati
- #41 Ryan Tice, K/P from Saline
- #89 Brad Anluaf is back on the team
Ross Douglas is now listed as Ross Taylor-Douglas.
Brady Pallante switched from #54 to #45.

Darnell Hood 3.0
February 23rd, 2015 at 7:42 PM ^
These are updated. I happened to check after reading Baumgardner's TE article and these are not the same. Bunting is up to 243 from 227 and we have a number of new members in the over 300 club.
February 24th, 2015 at 12:02 AM ^
Was hoping to see Bunting over 240 lbs this year - looking good. For a "flex" TE he is now a pretty adequate size, esp at that age. Think he could surprise us this year in production if he is even an "ok" blocker.

February 23rd, 2015 at 7:58 PM ^
He's 6'3"
February 23rd, 2015 at 8:03 PM ^
Yep. Thinking the same thing. Hope it's not Green 2.0.
No wonder they wanted Weber so badly.
Higdon uber alles?
February 23rd, 2015 at 9:27 PM ^
Nah. Isaac has 4 inches of Green; 240 at that height, with an offseason to drop some pounds, is fine. I'd be more worried that Green, the presumptive #1 RB if Johnson doesn't bounce back, is only 6 pounds lighter at 234.
