Ja’Raymond Hall Remains Comment Count

Via a tweet this morning from the man himself, it appears that reports of freshman offensive tackle Ja’Raymond Hall leaving were premature, or at least that Hall has had a change of heart after speaking with his coaches:

With both tackle spots open next year Michigan could use every dice roll, and Hall is the kind of tall, athletic developmental prospect that Greg Frey has had a lot of success with.

It just so happens that your prospect here is only MOSTLY processed. There's a big difference between mostly processed, and all processed. Mostly processed is slightly enrolled. With all processed, well, with all processed there's usually only one thing you can do.

According to Sam Webb's latest tweet, Hall has been given his release but has not yet decided whether to actually transfer. In addition, Hall is probably a guard, not a tackle

or you wouldn't see different coaching staffs, knowing the game equally well, grade the same talent differently. It is definitely subjective to what they're running and to them in general. I'm guessing if they would prefer his at tackle, they figure he does not possess the quickness of feet needed at the OT position.

regardless of playing time. Dude, get your degree in 3 and a nice start on a masters. If you play, great. If you don't, you just had a huge set up for life.

Clearly Jim Harbaugh is just putting into practice that old adage that if you really love an offensive line prospect, set him free. Here is hoping love will find a way to becoming a nightmare for opposing DL.

Sounds more like it isn't decided yet from the wording. It says "I've made no decision on my future." It also says "remains." What it doesn't say is "I'm staying."

He's far from the first student to consider transferring. I think a fair amount of athletes consider it at one time or another for various reasons. Sometimes this is good (they really are unhappy where they are, they need to be closer to family, they really aren't going to get playing time if they stay, their coach is a sociopath), and sometimes this is bad (they just need more time to adjust to where they are, they will get playing time if they stay, their coach actually does know what he's doing).

Back in the day fans wouldn't have known anything about it until he actually transferred.

that a 6'5 and 280 FR is a bit undersized...

I like this kid, I hope he sticks, but wish him well whatever he decides.

PS - My early guess for 2018 OL

Bredeson - Spanellis - Ruiz - Onwenu - Hudson
