It's behind a Rivals paywall, but here's the jist:
Austin White is "pretty darn close" to committing to his school of choice, and a decision is probably coming within the next week.

It's been said he's a Michigan lean for a while now, and this seemed reaffirmed when he publicly gave Michigan the "leader" endorsement.
As the title states, all signs point to Michigan.

If he commits, is he the last RB we take? Do we shut down on Eduardo Clements and Brandon Gainer or go after them too?

Michigan does not nudge people out. Rich wrote Dwayne Peace's phone number on a bar napkin, you know, the one with the lip stick on it? Well, three martini's and a dip in the hotel fountain later and *WHOOSH*, goodbye napkin!
And Barnes, he was just kind of a douche. Coach offered to have Maurice Taylor pick him up from the airport, but the dude was like, "No thanks, I'll walk." Something about not feelin' safe...roll cages, er something. I don't know. Point is, Michigan is a school of decent folk. Those guys just didn't quite fit in

/shrug
The offer lists are night and day and I don't think RR would take 2 jumbo backs. You're normally spot on though, so I guess I assumed wrong. I'm more of a fan of Carlos Brown type than Brandon Minor type RBs anyway.
Who's the other jumbo
Who's the other jumbo back?
Gainer is listed at 6' and 194 lbs., which means he's probably 5'10" or 5'11" and 185 lbs.
Clements is listed at 5'10" and 185 lbs., which means he's probably 5'9" and 177 lbs.
I think the coaches might leave room for Clements, but not Gainer. Gainer really isn't all that special. Despite his "jumbo" size, he doesn't break many tackles. So his jumbo-ness is somewhat wasted.
He doesn't break tackles
He doesn't break tackles because he is always taking a dive, you know, doing a "half" Gainer. lol
no
I would not think so. Anyone can decommit at any moment we definitnely will not shut em down. Maybe slow play, but I would think/hope we go hard after Eduardo.
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh Here comes the ban hammer.
I hope so too.
IMO, Eduardo has the perfect skill set for our offense. Its us against Miami and FSU. From what I hear, Georgia is out b/c they just signed Malcome and look good for Mack Brown.

If he does commit, I submit that he'll benefit greatly from a year or two of Barwisization -- he's got a lean frame but it looks like he could add quite a bit of bulk easily.

Thank you, sir.
