Michigan "Expected" To Land Ty Isaac
Michigan expects to land USC transfer running back Ty Isaac, who according to a source is working through the admissions process with the school and committed some time after his visit this week.
Perhaps anything can happen but Isaac has given the Wolverines strong indications that he'll be attending school in Ann Arbor, according to the source.
Sam Webb was saying much the same except with the requisite caution that comes along with being a daily recruiting reporter for a particular school where the fans hold grudges forever.
Isaac, a five star to Rivals and Scout last year, averaged 5.5 yards a carry in sparing time as a freshman at USC. At 6'2" with an upright style, the closest comparison in recent Michigan history is Brandon Minor, though Isaac displayed some pretty fantastic hands in high school and could be a guy Michigan looks at as a wide receiver if someone actually steps up at running back.
Isaac will apply for a hardship waiver; his mom can no longer fly because of an ear issue and he'd like to be closer to home. If he gets it he'll be in the same class as De'Veon Smith and Derrick Green; if not he'd slot in a class behind them. Ace has a Hello post from last year that he gets to post now, and we'll do that when the "perhaps anything can happen" phase passes and Isaac himself is saying he'll end up at M.
With the line being pretty experienced in 2015 and the backs as well, we could start having people head for the NFL early so this won't matter as much. It may work itself out. Nice problem to have regardless.
I agree though the preference would be to spread them out.
GIDDINESS!!! Morning off to a grrrreat start with news of Ty wanting to come to the good side.
Methink: we'll get another rb within this class too.
GO OFFENSIVE LINE!!!!
I think I will just F5 this site today until I see a 'Hello' post. Maybe stay up to date on the twitter feed just in case... I can't even think those thoughts.
If this goes down the Universe just paid us back with a 5 Star running back. Now if the line opens up some lanes we are in good shape.
USC you take Fargas Michigan takes Isaac!
Was that a part of the Fargas transfer?
Throwing caution to the wind and celebrating!

If Ty does end up here, I demand that everyone on this board spell his name correctly. Repeat after me, it is I-S-A-A-C, not Issac. That is all.
As much as I would love to see this guy play at Michigan this year, the NCAA is opening up the floodgates for "hardship" transfers if they stretch that 100 mile radius.
Shouldn't be long now before Ty Isaac announces his plans
