Writing was on the wall here after Gray held off signing early. At first blush, Gray is very much a luxury since Michigan is bringing in 4 DBs already despite losing nobody from this year's team. Gray is in he three-star sleeper range on the composite, the #17 kid in Michigan and #686 overall, and his recruiting story—a Mizzou commitment that almost turned into a WVU flip before Michigan stepped in—doesn't do a whole lot to dispute that take.
Ace will have a Hello post Monday.

After watching Zordich work his magic with most of these kids idk why every CB doesnt want to come to Michigan

1-1-9 defense?
January 21st, 2018 at 4:27 PM ^
Fastest defense in America!
January 21st, 2018 at 4:42 PM ^
Piranha defense
January 21st, 2018 at 2:14 PM ^
Nice late pickup.
January 21st, 2018 at 2:16 PM ^
Congrats VIncent
January 21st, 2018 at 2:19 PM ^
Alright! Welcome Aboard! and glad to get more depth in the defensive backfield.
January 21st, 2018 at 2:26 PM ^
I would say he should tie his shoelaces, but we already have proof that isn't exactly necessary!
January 21st, 2018 at 2:37 PM ^
Uh, great? I guess.
January 21st, 2018 at 2:38 PM ^
If not for the early signing period we could have dozens of threads speculating on which of the other commits were being forced out.
January 21st, 2018 at 2:39 PM ^
Welcome, Vincent! Glad you chose the Maize and Blue!
January 21st, 2018 at 2:53 PM ^
Can he play tackle? Either side, not picky. Jk, welcome Vincent! Great decision and go blue!
January 21st, 2018 at 2:56 PM ^
a four star (friday) to osu ....and got another 3 star ,,,,we are the best ..... sarcasm.... whatever,,,,
January 21st, 2018 at 3:17 PM ^
0 leaving DBs and taking all these in this class makes me wonder. Other positions are more sorely needed. Nothing against this kid. He seems like a baller.
January 21st, 2018 at 9:52 PM ^
Some stats:
Harbaugh has brought in:14 OL, 20 WR's / RB's, 8 TE / FB's, and 16 DB's in his four classes. If you take out the first year it's 12 OL, 17 WR / RB, 7 TE / FB's, and 13 DB's. If you lump TE's and FBs in with RB's and WR's its almost a 1 OL : 2 skill position ratio on offense (not counting QB's). OL just seems underrecruited since you will always have 5 of them on the field.

Go Blue!
January 21st, 2018 at 3:24 PM ^
Guys from Michigan
to go to Michigan
Go Blue.
January 21st, 2018 at 4:07 PM ^
Unless they suck...then they can go elsewhere.
January 21st, 2018 at 4:41 PM ^
So glad you clarified - jeez
January 21st, 2018 at 3:28 PM ^
Gray also picked up late offeres from UCLA, Duke, Cal, and Oregon. which would imply he's a bit of a late riser and probably better than his 600s ranking.
January 21st, 2018 at 4:26 PM ^
Are we anticipating Hill and Long both going pro early or something? Don Brown moving to a nickel and dime D? Multiple unknown DB transfers? This has been an odd recruiting cycle.
January 21st, 2018 at 4:29 PM ^
scholarships coming from?
January 21st, 2018 at 4:56 PM ^
I bet the coaching staff knows. And I bet they'll figure it out before it's a concern.
January 21st, 2018 at 9:54 PM ^
I hope it's not Brandon Watson's scholarship...
January 22nd, 2018 at 11:44 AM ^
Stop talking crazy! How could the staff know what's going on?
January 21st, 2018 at 5:32 PM ^
Vert and Long both going pro after this year is a real possibility based on their play. Stocking the cupboards!
January 21st, 2018 at 5:34 PM ^
Yesterday’s news - come on, keep up here.
January 21st, 2018 at 6:17 PM ^
Go Blue!
January 21st, 2018 at 11:22 PM ^
If 5 DB’s is a nickel, and 6 DB’s is a dime, maybe we’re going to be running 7 DB’s as. Quarter??
January 22nd, 2018 at 7:50 AM ^
Quarter D is real... and yes it is 7 DB. =)
January 21st, 2018 at 6:58 PM ^
We also just got a grad transfer commit from a cb who started for Utah last season.
January 21st, 2018 at 9:51 PM ^
Seems like a good pick up, but like everyone else is asking, why? What's up with the stockpile and and over stockpile? Some of the kids changing position? Change of defensive system? Expecting multiple early NFL entries? I'm not smart enough, and probably none of us outside of the actual coaching staff truly understands the motivation for this direction. So trust what they know and roll with it. Go Blue.
January 21st, 2018 at 11:27 PM ^
6'-2" tall long armed dude to add to the pile of slot/nickel corner-safety hybrids.
January 22nd, 2018 at 12:53 AM ^
Congrats, Vincent.
January 22nd, 2018 at 12:17 PM ^
Welcome, Vincent!
