2011 Michigan Football Recruiting Board
A Note on Premium Info: No illicit sharing of said material will appear on this site. Players are listed with interested schools in their profiles; this information is public. Commitments are by definition public. Any assertions as to schools in the mix, decision dates, or leaders I will back up with links to public information.
Projected Class Size:
| Names | Count | |
|---|---|---|
| Expired Eligibility | Banks, Dorrestein, Ezeh, Ferrara, Mouton, Patterson, Rogers, Sagesse, Schilling, Warren, Webb | 12 |
| Transfer | Emilien, Turner, Forcier | 3 |
| Early Entry | Koger, Martin | -- |
| Unrenewed Fifth | Watson, Williams | 2 |
| Other | Unused (Dorsey, D. Rogers, Kinard) | 5 |
Total: Michigan has about 22 to give right now. More detail on the scholarship situation can be found at the depth chart by class.
The Board
Legend:
| Icon | Name | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
 |
Sad Josh | The genre of player with unrequited interest in Michigan. Unlikely to receive offers; most will eventually fade off the list and go to Duke or Michigan State or something. |
 |
Nefarious Eduardo | Player is a longshot. Either they've declared someone else a leader publicly or popular opinion holds that they're likely to go to another school. |
 |
Data | Either no opinion or Michigan is one of a fairly even group of chasing schools. Players in this category maintain no leader or change their leader frequently. The default category for players that we don't know much about yet. |
 |
Happy Teeth | Players who have Michigan in a small leading group or have Michigan as a tenuous favorite. Should be regarded as a good shot, not a slam dunk. |
 |
Mr. Blue | Player is either a verbal or is expected to be one sooner or later. Players with this designation are 65%+ to be Michigan commits. |
Additional note: (EE) next to a Michigan commit indicates the player intends to enroll early.
Quarterback
Needs: Minor. Michigan has three 4-star QBs in the past two classes, plus another 3-star in Conelius Jones if he ever makes it to campus. HOWEVA, the offense requires a number of (healthy) QBs on the roster, so another top-rated guy would do just fine, thank you. Barring that, a couple lesser-rated guys who can be given a shot at QB then moved to a different position if it doesn't work out are the goal.
Status: Michigan has offered a few guys very early in the process. I'd be surprised if they landed a top guy, unless they hid the depth chart from him.

Running Back / Fullback
Needs: Miniscule. Michigan is taking a bunch of guys in the 2010 class, and though they graduated three after 2009, there is nobody whose eligibility will expire following the 2010 season. They'll take 1 versatile speedy guy, and who knows after that.
Status: With Hart now in the fold, we'll have to see if they keep offering guys. Since Hopkins is playing this year, there's room in this class for a Minor-type blocker/bruiser to take a redshirt and have a two-year separation from the next guy.
Projected Commits: 1 RB, 1 FB?

Wide Receiver
Needs: Low, depending on position changes from the 2010 class. With 5 wide receivers currently committed for 2010, they can't need too many more, even if a couple make a switch.
Status: Conway gives M one big target; Watkins looks promising given the standard "keep winning" caveat.
Projected Commits: 2. Maybe one inside guy and one outside guy?

Offensive Line
Needs: High. The 2011 line is expected to be exceptional, but the next generation needs to sign up now. Michigan mostly struck out on their targets in the 2010 class, with the obvious exception of Christian Pace. High-potential guys who will take longer to see the field should be okay with Michigan's good 2008 and 2009 OL classes.
Status: Michigan is on its way to a good OL class, with several good prospects committed, and a good shot at more. Zettel should come..."keep winning!"

Defensive Tackle
Needs: High. Michigan got two slasher types in the 2010 class (Ash and Talbott). But Patterson is graduating, Martin could jump to the NFL and Campbell could switch to offense, leaving just two scholarship DTs on the roster, and both more built to play the Banks/Sagesse DT spot; we need a Nose.

Cornerback
Needs: High. Like deep safety, the cornerback depth chart has lots of young bodies, but an elite player likely sees the field immediately. An S/CB hybrid type to play FS in the 3-3-5 is a major need. M needs bodies to fill the depth chart, because right now the dime package uses every scholarship CB on hand.
Status: Brown (soft verbal) and Hollowell are elf-kind, but fill the need for depth. Not a good year for cornerbacks: Rivals has no 5-stars at the position, but M's currently the 3rd wheel of their No. 1's (Doran Grant) top three.

A reminder: the Star Scale for Rumor Credibility.
- 0-star: incoherent ravings.
- 1-star: clearly biased speculation without backing.
- 2-star: Some guy saying something on some board that claims insider info due to a chance occurence.
- 3-star: Information from someone less established as an insider but a frequent poster who seems sane and useful.
- 4-star: recognized insider-type person with no ax to grind who has established his bonafides on past recruits.
- 5-star: actually verified by an article and a quote from the player, a family member, or a coach.
So. Cutoff is two stars... sometimes three. Played by feel. In the future there will be denotations as follows:

Donte' Phillips...
I would re-eval your position on this board for Donte Phillips. Michigan has invited him down for 4 games already (attended purdue. Attending o state game). He's been blowing up latly with interest from all over. Multiple sources from rivals, scout, and wissports say he could be the #1 prospect from Wisconsin plus he is very interested in the wolverines.
Good for us fans because we all know the d line needs help.

i would love to see depriest and someone like keith lewis come to AA. steve miller is a lost case, while donte phillips is an interesting prospect. i think out of the safeties, we'll get sheroid evans and ron tanner, further clogging up the depth chart. because of the wealth of safety talent, i am not clamoring for sean parker's commitment this year, as i would rather be patient and get the #1 safety next year in evans.
i heard that arnett likes cincy. he is a slot guy, so although i would love for him to come here, we have a lot of depth, so much that guys like gallon and t-robinson cant get playing time because of tay and roy. if he goes to UF or bama, fine with me, as long as he doesnt go to the suckeyes or msu.

I'd really like to see Michigan get some work done as far as LBs and DEs in this class, we could use some serious help in that category. However it seems like alot of these guys are going to be more attracted to a traditional 4-3 where they can line up with their hands on the turf. As far as the two big in-state prospects (Arnett and Thomas) we have to be able to grab at least one of them (preferably Thomas), however right now it looks like it will be Thomas to MSU and Arnett to OU if they offer.. But that's just based on what I've read.

Questions
Questions
Can Rome be moved to LT? He's 6'6 and 240. I think a redshirt year plus 1 more year waiting to start should allow him to get his weight around 275-280 which would be great for a athletic LT.
Why were Hollowell and Brown offered so early? It seemed like both were easy gets and could have been waited on until later in the 2010 season. We have so few scholarships already for 2010 I'd really hate to see us have to turn down a 3rd D-lineman because we took Hollowell.
Alex: Backup QB is the best position in sports. In fact I get drunk all the time, I don't have to show up to class, and it's just like being a real QB but without all the pain.

Im OK with Brown being offered early, but Hollowell makes very little sense to me. From what I have seen, he just seems too short and slow to have success in college.

im not sure how big rome's frame is
im not sure how big rome's frame is
but adding 40 pounds of good weight is something that would be difficult to do. at least 5-15 pounds would be bad weight which u dont want to do just for the sake of having extra weight. on top of that, it would hinder his athletic ability which was why u wanted him to move to LT in the first place. im not gonna pretend to know anything about rome but if he were anonymous i would say that there could be a better candidate.

There are only six guys from Michigan on the list:
1. DeAnthony Arnett, WR
2. Bryan Bell, OT
3. Bryce Hall, OG
4. Justice Hayes, RB
5. Delonte Hollowell, CB
6. Lawrence Thomas, ILB
Why do the OL guys not have offers, especially since that's an area of need?

Do you know for a fact that
Do you know for a fact that
Does anyone else think DE is probably not the best college position for Beyer? After watching his recruiting videos, I imagine RR plans on making him a TE/WR. He has great hands, and is a very solid blocker. I believe he could develop into a great blocking and passcatching TE in this offense.
He looks good at DE in HS, but I don't really see him being able to add enough weight to be a dominant Big Ten DE. Right now, Beyer is 20 pounds lighter than Roh coming out of HS, and after adding 10 pounds of muscle Roh is still on the smaller side for a DE. I just don't know if Beyer would be able to gain 30-40(minimum) pounds for the position.

some helpful changes from ur burnt orange friend:
-garret greenlea committed to texas(make red face)
-sheroid evans committed to texas(make red face)
-nathan hughes went to the first texas junior day and was the only prospect not to receive an offer. its unclear if he will receive one with the numbers being so tight for texas and kendall thompson is a UT commit who is a possibility for spinning down(moving to DE). hopefully you can pick him up, felt sorry for the kid who had grown up loving texas and didnt get an offer. would love to see him out of SEC/other b12 hands and playing for a team that i root for. we would have loved to have him but our numbers are too tight we cant afford to use up another scholarship on a DE
-anthony wallace is offered from texas but is not being as pursued as he should be. numbers are very tight for texas and texas already has a stud LB for this class in steve edmond. also have a commit from kendall thompson who is listed as a LB. considered an OU lean now.
-forgot shawn conway as a commit.
i enjoy reading your boards, thanks for all the hard work u put into it.

Jarrell Oliver Running Back
This kid is from the same school as Woolfolk, Stonum and Herron. He has an offer and he looks very good on tape. Good size with Minor-like patience to wait for the hole and then hit it with authority plus the ability to make people miss in space. He and his family were apparently very impressed during their visit for the "Night of Champions" weekend. He would be a solid pick up.

An excellent addition to this board would be more links to the recruits' video highlights. Most of the offered prospects have free videos available on either YouTube, Scouting Ohio, or other prep websites. It would be very helpful to be able to access these directly from this board.
(GBMW and UMGoblog both have this feature, though not in a context as thorough as your board.)

Tanner to da Bucks
No surprise to anyone...per rivals Ron Tanner has committed to Ohio State. Question I have is, with 17 verbals already, how many more can they take...Where does this leave us with someone like Aundrey Walker?

I read rumors of glitches on the board. Was it updated and just doesn't show it?

Thoughts on LA recruits on your board
Thoughts on LA recruits on your board
You guys should be recruiting Jamaurio at OLB. He's more of a UT lean. Jonah Austin now a Houston commit. He is worth going after. Mickey Johnson has narrowed it down to roughly 73 schools but 80/20 LSU. Came by hoping to find out more on Cardale Jones...jackpot. Thanks

Hasean Clinton-Dix was discussed in a detroit paper today as committed to Bama, but still taking official visits (which seems strange), and also as a 5*.

Potential updates to projected class size
Potential updates to projected class size
Two transfers: Emilien and LaLota.
Possibility that Woolfolk seeks medical redshirt (although I don't believe he used his "regular" redshirt, at least not according to the depth chart by class).
Excellent job with this, as always.
If only Coach Mo hadn't gotten so drunk.

Why does Michigans' recruiting suck?
Why does Michigans' recruiting suck?
Looking at Rivals top 250 for 2011, Michigan only has ONE player, Beyer, who they have listed @ #191! Heck, teams like Pittsburgh have 5 guys listed as commits. I saw Texas Tech and Stanford on that list numerous times. What is up? Rivals has Michigan ranked @ #33, which to me seems rather generous. The ranking is based on the recruits star ratings. Michigan only has two 4-star guys, and of them is a 5'-8" tall cb - not good...we've seen that already. Which, means Michigan is more like #50. What is going on? Why can't Michigan land a 5-star and a handful of 4's?

I might suggest looking elsewhere then

Tell me Denard is not a five star player, and you'll be guilty as a liar. Tell me Patrick is a 2* and the same applies. We've received many, many recruits that are playing like 4 and 5s, but the trouble is, we're also in the middle of replenishing the D like we had to do with the offense.
Regardless, doesn't really matter what the gurus think as long as they perform like 4*s on the field. A 5* like WC does absolutely no good unless he proves it after he gets to college. It can be argued Kevin, another 5* was no better equipped for Big Ten fb than his little bro, a walk-on and former bb player here. See what they do on the field in conference before any stars are given. They're just like early Heisman and polls. Fruit for thought as the real thing plays out.

No Pressure Just Win
No Pressure Just Win
Win and you get recruits. Lose and no one comes here because they think RR gets fired. We are getting close to the time where Brandon needs to declare RR "our guy" or we won't see a bump in recruiting until January after they hire a new coach and the kids get to see the direction of the program. Very frustrating.
Board looks great, but the projected class size is completely botched Ezeh, Mouton etc.. all have eligibility left. I think you copied the Juniors not the seniors. Take the seniors and add Cone and Patterson as unrenewed redshirts and that is your starting point.
