on each of the Fab 5 OL committing to UM? Is there any chance they get all 5?

Also piggybacking on this....how is M going to take all these OL?? They have 4 OL committed currently, want to get the "Fab 5" plus Slaton. Obviously, it's possible there will be some decommits and non-commits from the 6 uncommitted they are going after, but what kind of numbers is M looking at attaining at OL? 7? 8?

October 17th, 2016 at 5:56 PM ^
I agree want Slaton as well, but with the numbers, wonder if any of the commits/recruits are being recruited for other positions

According to the graphic that was produced the Fab5 listed are: Chuck Filiaga TX, Isaiah Wilson NY, Cesar Ruiz FL, Alex Leatherwood FL, Jedrick Wills KY

Thanks

piggybacking off of this, if we don't get Tufele, what are our backup options as far as a true NT?

Are there any players who we are not talking about that have a chance to end up in the class? It seem like every year we have a recruit commit from out of the blue.
October 17th, 2016 at 4:37 PM ^
October 17th, 2016 at 12:50 PM ^
What are the implications of the early signing period in your opinion? Thanks
October 17th, 2016 at 12:51 PM ^
Do you think The Game is weighing on recruits minds? Obviously they will be excited about it, but do you feel there are any holding commitments back to see how that game plays out?
ESPN reported that Michigan seems to have made some make up strides with Aubrey Solomon. Do you have any insight into what is going on with that situation?
October 17th, 2016 at 3:09 PM ^
October 17th, 2016 at 8:57 PM ^
Dont hold your breath on Solomon.

Has Michigan made any inroads into Ohio for future classes? Do we need to?
October 17th, 2016 at 1:48 PM ^
I know that we've talked about Harbaugh's strategy being a national one essentially, but I think this is an interesting question given Michigan's hisotry in the state of Ohio when it comes to players. Are we at that point where we've stopped relying on a regional strategy altogether? I would be interested in the answer.
October 17th, 2016 at 12:53 PM ^
The number of incoming recruits seems to change quite a bit - I have heard as high as 33 for this class. What is your best guess for a number on this year's class and the subsequent year or two?
October 17th, 2016 at 12:53 PM ^
October 17th, 2016 at 12:56 PM ^
As always, thanks a bunch for your insights.
What makes Michigan under Harbaugh good at recruiting, and especially, how does it distinguish itself against other top programs? Are there overarching strategies and pitches--or does Michigan maybe excel at tailoring recruiting tactics for a particular player?
October 17th, 2016 at 12:54 PM ^
October 17th, 2016 at 12:55 PM ^
Who is the most highly touted recruit that we are most likely to flip for another program?
And vice versa, who's most likely to flip from our current class?
October 17th, 2016 at 12:57 PM ^
Why has Dylan McCaffrey dropped in the rankings? I remember him being #1 or #2 before the season started. Should we be worried or is it no big deal?
October 17th, 2016 at 1:00 PM ^
Assuming we get JKP and Thomas, who else would you project in the class? Are they aiming for a particular number or is it more a case of adding the best players available regardless of position?
October 17th, 2016 at 1:01 PM ^
do you think it is that Najee sticks with his Bama commitment? If he doesn't how likely is it that he ends up at UM?
October 17th, 2016 at 1:43 PM ^
Sam Webb is adament that if Najee commits to any other school that it would be Michigan at this point. He doesn't expect a decommitment, but Michigan has the biggest chance of flipping him. I think Najee really likes Michigan from the sound of everything.

October 17th, 2016 at 1:17 PM ^
approximately what is your sense of the current odds of landing him. ? Besides Alabama and Michigan, who are the other serious contenders at this point for him ?
October 17th, 2016 at 1:04 PM ^
What are your thoughts on the recent offers to high-ranked Safeties?
October 18th, 2016 at 10:29 PM ^
...at this point, how does the staff view recruiting for the D. Bronwn "Viper/Peppers" position? is it more looking for premier HS athletes who fit that athletic mold/build (believe Darron Lee was a HS QB before playing the same position for the suckeyes) or is it just looking for the most athletic S/LB prospect in that 6'2/200-220lb range. I know Shannon Reid has been mentioned there and the staff recently offered the Las Vegas Bishop Gorman player Bolden. Do you see the staff continue to push for a third Safety in the class (assuming JKP jumps in at some point) like Bolden, Pola-Mao or maybe a little more under the radar Safety prospect like Kendarian Handy-Holly? His film looks better than J'Marick Woods at FS and apparently has a laser-timed 4.5 40.

If we land 3 or 4of the "Fab Five"(O-line), who in the current class is the most likely for a decommit? They all seem to be tackles, so I'm assuming position doesn't matter

Do you think MSU's dumpster fire season ends up in significant changeover in Sparty's staff, and if so ... does that push Ambry Thomas to Michigan?
Who specifically on MSU's staff are Ambry Thomas and his mom close with?
October 17th, 2016 at 2:48 PM ^
+1 on dumpster fire
October 17th, 2016 at 1:17 PM ^
affect us in recruiting? are we going after any of the same peeps?

Well, should have said, are the 5 losses by Spartans and Irishes helping Michigan with any particular recruit?

With likely several NJ recruits taking in the 78-0 Rutgers massacre, it got me to thinking what if any impact there might be for recruits taking their OV to opposing teams during Michigan week? Obviously they do not get all of the special benefits, but is there anything to the idea that recruits would choose that week because of their interest in UM? Obviously could play big this year with OSU being on the road.
