Wiltfong Crystal Ball: Filiaga to Michigan
A lot of bad news today, perhaps this bit could help us all sleep tonight. FTR, Sam Webb has stated that Filiaga is one of the few offensive line targets who could start right away.
Also, Wiltfong very recently stated he had a "gut feeling" that Filiaga would be going to Oklahoma, so clearly he learned something very significant that swayed his opinion.
I just put in a @247CrystalBall forecast in favor of #Michigan for Top247 OT Chuck Filiaga: https://t.co/pso2DPhXrG #Wolverines

Again?!?!?!

Can you believe he did it twice in the span of a single minute?
January 1st, 2017 at 6:42 PM ^
Now I've seen everything!
January 1st, 2017 at 6:50 PM ^
How does he compare to Wilson on film? Lower ceiling, more ready from day 1?
January 1st, 2017 at 7:43 PM ^
Yeah, pretty much. Wilson is a better athlete, but he's also very raw. Filiaga's not going to be an elite player from day one, but he's more ready physically and technically.

I was getting pretty worried what with all the crystal balls going elsewhere.
Here's hoping we pull out a few more recruiting wins to end the season.
January 1st, 2017 at 10:10 PM ^
yep filiaga would be great but they could use a top DT. theyve signed some decent prospects but other than villain, not many quick twitch type athletes at DL. heres hoping guys like jeter and paea figure it out and develop into real contributors

This is the more informative one, so we'll go with this one - no offense to DCGrad, although his was in fact the first one.
In any case, hopefully Wiltfong is correct.

it ain't easy being you but you do a great job so thanks my man!

This one got more comment traction anyways! FWIW here is a free interview from Steve Lorenz with Chuck Filiaga: http://michigan.247sports.com/Bolt/Filiaga-ready-to-announce-his-decisi…. Maybe OP can add the link if he wants.

I don't think he should, I think he should stay with U-M....The Gators offense is like a bunch of zombies out there!

that Sam doesn't share the coaching staff's optimism about Harris. As you mention, he needs to hear it from Harris first.
The thing is that it's possible Harris was telling the staff nice things three weeks ago, but a lot can change in a teenager's mind in that span of time, especially with his original commitment already going to another NC game.
January 1st, 2017 at 7:10 PM ^
Hopefully not the same ones that felt that Wilson was a done deal.

Are like the chances that Peppers was going to play after watching him try to warmup. We all had hope, really wanted it to work out...
Thankfully, it will all be over soon and we can move on and be excited about the backs we do have.
GO BLUE!!

247 has Herbert as the #28 composite OT and Becton as the #41. Similarly, their offer lists suggest Herbert is the better recruit. Everything I've seen suggests that Herbert also is more flexible, better able to shift to OG if necessary. Why do you prefer Becton?

To me that means the big dogs don't think he'll qualify.
