2012 DT: Ondre Pipkins
well the epic 2012 recruit name game continues as this DT from Kansas City, Missouri is listing Michigan as one of his top schools.
Couldn't find any videos on youtube, but rivals shows one on his profile here:
http://rivals.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting/football/recruiting/player-Ondre-Pipkins-115144
lists offers from Kansas State and Missouri... and at 6'3 325 he could definitely fill the kind of spaceeater we need at DT.
not sure about our recruiting in Kansas though.

At 225, I don't think he is much of a DT.

February 9th, 2011 at 7:01 PM ^
yeah my bad,
thanks for the catch
February 9th, 2011 at 6:42 PM ^
Uhhh? It's 325, bud...
February 9th, 2011 at 6:44 PM ^
The post says 225. He's making a joke.
February 9th, 2011 at 6:48 PM ^
Thanks for catching that, I thought the OP might have picked up on it as well.
February 9th, 2011 at 6:42 PM ^
He grew up in Michigan. He's definitely interested in UM

He went to Rochester Adams High School in Rochester Hills, MI until last year I believe. His name appears in a few game summaries at adamsfootball.com from 2009 (his sophomore year).

Loving the defensive recruiting comitment by our staff so far. At 325 lbs, I'll be suprised if he doesn't get an offer.
February 9th, 2011 at 7:04 PM ^
...eaten more in high school.
February 9th, 2011 at 7:04 PM ^

February 11th, 2011 at 1:47 AM ^
+1 for the great handle
February 9th, 2011 at 7:05 PM ^
sounds like a pimp.
February 9th, 2011 at 7:05 PM ^
February 9th, 2011 at 7:19 PM ^
Interest is good. Looking forward to the update.
Thanks Tom.

Who would dare neg TomVH? At least they don't count for anything...

Pipkins is in the Army Combine video that's posted on Danny O'Brien's page (here).
If he weighs 325 in that video, that's a pretty damn impressive amount of the proverbial good weight for a high schooler - he doesn't look sloppy at all. If we could pull him, Danny O'Brien, and Wormley, that's one hell of a DL class.
February 9th, 2011 at 8:51 PM ^
There are so many names out there right now. Do we take the first three or do we leave some spots open for higher rated guys?
February 9th, 2011 at 10:00 PM ^
O'Brien is a fucking beast and freddy is going after him...
February 9th, 2011 at 8:12 PM ^
Watching O'Brien he looks a lot like Renes, compact and powerful.
February 9th, 2011 at 8:34 PM ^
February 9th, 2011 at 8:37 PM ^
there are so many great names going around for the '12 class, i can't wait to see how that's gonna turn out with hoka and staff having an entire year to prepare.
February 9th, 2011 at 9:48 PM ^
Dude I was just thinking the same thing and its a good point and yet for some reason you got neg. Im confused with why
February 9th, 2011 at 8:40 PM ^
325-225 = 100 lbs . I still want him then !
