Taco Charlton Commits, Too
Ace is currently on the street trying to score some icepacks for his fingers and methamphetamine for everything else, because by this time tomorrow the Hello post backlog will be 62.
Meanwhile, in the MGoBlog executive suite* the rumbling basso laughter of world domination. Via Tim Sullivan:
Michigan's 2013 recruiting is on a roll today. Pickerington (Ohio) Central defensive end Taco Charlton confirms that as the sixth commitment of the day, and No. 9 overall for the class.
So… today went well. Charlton is the sixth consensus four star to commit today. I'm going to high five this wall now.

* High fives right back.
I'm afraid to go to sleep, I feel like the class will be full by the time I wake up.
February 19th, 2012 at 12:19 AM ^
February 19th, 2012 at 12:22 AM ^
Only when it serves him to be so. It's a very zen thing.
February 19th, 2012 at 4:53 AM ^
Some see the class as half full, some see it as half empty.
February 19th, 2012 at 12:25 AM ^
I'm just another brick in it....
February 19th, 2012 at 12:22 AM ^
February 19th, 2012 at 12:33 AM ^
Totally agree and I'm afraid to go to bed because I might miss another 4 star or two committing before sunrise tomorrow.
February 19th, 2012 at 12:22 AM ^
I can't comprehend this. If I stay up we might get Treadwell, Isaac and Pocic. What is happening today? I love life.
HIGH FIVES (haha, I am in my basement (watched the game down here))
February 19th, 2012 at 12:24 AM ^
Yes. Yes, it did.

SI Cover Babe is big-time blue fan.........why not follow?
February 19th, 2012 at 8:24 AM ^
Not many things make me lol. This for whatever reason did. Thank you.
February 19th, 2012 at 11:07 AM ^
SCARED!
February 19th, 2012 at 12:32 AM ^
Why do I picture the Mgoblog executive suite being a bathroom? With executive suite writen on the door in sharpie.
February 19th, 2012 at 12:32 AM ^
What a day it has been. Go blue.
February 19th, 2012 at 12:36 AM ^
What a great night! Six great commits in one day, the good guys triumphed on the hardwood, and my mouse's attempts to sabotage my last two chess games failed (1.5/2).
February 19th, 2012 at 12:43 AM ^
to move to #2 in the PWR...

February 19th, 2012 at 12:50 AM ^
Would it be weird or frowned upon if I actually high-fived that?
February 19th, 2012 at 12:58 AM ^
One two three GO!
February 19th, 2012 at 12:40 AM ^
we already have one fewer rivals 250 kid than the entire 2012 class, and have one more person in rivals 100, these rankings can change of course, but man I thought i was happy when the commitments were flowing in last summer.
February 19th, 2012 at 12:41 AM ^
MGoBlog Executive Suite - move along now, nothing to see here.
February 19th, 2012 at 12:42 AM ^
unfreakingbelievable!!!
February 19th, 2012 at 12:51 AM ^
"Now all we got is bodies!"
February 19th, 2012 at 12:52 AM ^
Today was so good that it inspired me to join MGoBlog! So lets see: Beat @%#$&* (Ohio) in Basketball? Check. Win in overtime on senior night in Hockey? Check. Sign six 4-star recruits for football in the 2013 class? Check. February 18th was a successful day. Bring on February 19th!
February 19th, 2012 at 5:33 AM ^
Welcome to the blog. It would have been better, karma wise, if you had joined on Feb 18th... but the date joined seems to indicate the 19th. I hope that's also a good omen that we pick up a few more recruits today as well.
February 19th, 2012 at 12:52 AM ^
February 19th, 2012 at 12:54 AM ^
Great day all around. I imagine Red, Beilein and Hoke sitting in leather arm chairs, drinking scotch and laughing softly until one says something about their plans for world domination. Then they just smile.
February 19th, 2012 at 1:13 AM ^
(and using Rivals because I had it open)
4-star recruits signed in class of 2010: 6
4-star recruits signed in class of 2011: 6
4-star recruits signed committed on February 18, 2012: 6
Edited per DT76's comment below.

First we lose to Michigan State so we can go to the Sugar Bowl then players talk on TV about how hungry they are, now we accept commitments from tacos... Hoke- THIS IS NOT EPIC MEAL TIME. FOOTBALL DECISIONS should be made for FOOTBALL REASONS, not for how tasty they sound! Everyone on here needs to get a grip. Fire Hoke.
February 19th, 2012 at 1:09 AM ^
Hate to be that guy but nothing actually signed today.
February 19th, 2012 at 1:09 AM ^
Impressive fucking haul of verbals though.
February 19th, 2012 at 1:29 AM ^
This version of you makes me happier than the other one.
February 19th, 2012 at 1:25 AM ^
February 19th, 2012 at 1:39 AM ^
What kind of pants does Taco wear?
February 19th, 2012 at 1:53 AM ^

Honestly, two years ago at this time who would have predicted a day like today? Michigan basketball having a legit shot at a B1G title and Michigan football getting all the recruits. The present is bright, the future is even brighter.
February 19th, 2012 at 2:21 AM ^
I just read the Taco commit on Rivals; I'm as happy as a little girl! (damn that nipple-pinch hurts)

February 19th, 2012 at 4:27 AM ^
We currently have 8, Rivals Top 250 players for 2013. Make that 8 of our current 9 to be ranked that high. This years top 10 class had 9 players ranked that high -- HOLY CRAP are we off to a good start!
February 19th, 2012 at 5:10 AM ^
