According to the Rivals article on the frontpage, Willie Haulstead is still interested in Michigan. Says he is still committed to the Criminoles, but that Michigan is "narrowing the gap."

Hopefully the few quotes I put in didn't break the C&P rules.

Yeah, I had forgotten about Haulstead's mention in the Forcier interview.
BTW, did you ask Tate off the record how his last name is pronounced?

Yea....
Yea I actually did, and it didn't settle anything. He said it's either For-see-ay, or For-see-er. He said either pronunciation is fine. I think he says For-see-er though, FWIW. That's how I've been pronouncing it when I read it to myself on here.

Is a SWEET porn name. I'd use it if I uh, had the "gift."
That's not how it works, bro.
That's not how it works, bro. We need to know his middle name and the street he grew up on. Maybe TomVH can help.
BTW, mine is Tyler Windover.
I have a friend from law school who is Harrison Dixsmith. Best one ever. The other guy in the convo was Otto Country Rd. 134. Probably the worst.

Damn you Harrison Dixsmith
I never thought that I would hear a better porn name than Eddie Deepwood, but there it is.

I've also heard of people using their first pet's name instead of their middle.
The problem with that is it's
The problem with that is it's likely that your first pet was either a girl (mine would be Mindy) or a name that fits a pet and not a person (like spot, or something). My best friend growing up would be Fritzy Windover.

Good to know. We need
Good to know. We need another Split End in this class, so picking up Haulstead or Stokes will be important. Stokes is visiting this weekend, so hopefully that goes really well.
? for Tom VH on WR in this Class
Would Michigan take Stokes, Haulstead, and Stallworth in this class with the remaining spots?
I know it's a pipe dream for all of them to go blue but I'm wondering who might be the odd man out.
Thanks!
Well...
Well, Stallworth is a different player than Stokes and Haulstead. They're more outside receivers, Travante is slot/ath guy. He could probably try to play a couple different positions. So he's not really in that category, it's more of eithe Stokes or Haulstead, and if it were my choice, I would rather have Je'Ron Stokes. We might have a better shot at him anyways.

Ok
I know you like Travante (and he sounds like a good kid)but do we need another slot guy in this class? Maybe your thinking he could play another position? CB or QB?
I don't want to sound negative on the kid, I just think we may have other needs. (unless we want to go over 25 which maybe a good idea with the early enrollees)
He plays QB, too. Always
He plays QB, too. Always nice to have an extra one of those, just in case.
You asked....
You asked me if we would take all three, I just told you they play different spots, not that I want him over the other two.

I still don't understand why
I still don't understand why outside WR is listed as a position of need. Our WR's are primarily blockers right now while the QB position matures. As far as route running skill guys go...Stonum is fine for now until the 2010 kids come in.
As far as LBs go...it looks like we're sticking S/LB hybrids in there. A stud MLB would be nice, but the only positions I'm stressing over is 1 more corner and a capable dual threat QB. Period.
WRs aren't primarily blockers
That seems awfully shortsighted, unless you think we're still going to have quarterback issues four years from now.
they are in this offense.
they are in this offense. Some rookie QBs rely on the middle of the field and TE's...we do bubble screens to the tiny slot guy. Which is fine and all...but it'll be a couple years before we get a Shaun King or Colt McCoy. By then there will be Stonum, Jackson and Miller on the outside...that's plenty! Plus Clemons and J.R. are only going to get better.
Yea if you remember from my Tate Forcier interview, he said that he has been working on Willie hard, and it's down to Florida State and Michigan.
