Info Recap: TomVH
Filed under:
There's been a lot of information, in a short amount of time, so I'll recap it here.
ESPN call w/ Tom Luginbill:
I didn't press the buttons in time, so I didn't get to ask a question. I would have liked to as a couple, because the people that do ask about Michigan, don't ask anything that matters.
- Sean Parker will be announcing on ESPNU at 10am EST.
- Devin Gardner is physically the stereotype of what Rich Rod wants as a QB, and is expected to compete. The mental aspect of the game, grasping that, is what Luginbill thinks is one of the only things holding Devin back from playing.
- Michigan has gotten better with the skill positions. This class is a great foundation for the future, and is filled with Rich Rod's type of guy.
- Luginbill thinks FSU, Michigan, and USC are neck and neck for Demar Dorsey.
That was really the only info that was worth anything to us.
I spoke with 2011 DE Robert Mincey recently, and he told me that Michigan is his leader. He's 6'4 230 lbs. from Fairfield, Ohio. He'll be at Michigan's junior day on the 20th.
- Terry Talbott's coach, Jay Minton, sent me an email. He said that, "Terry's head is spinning. I wish I could tell you what he'll do." He's going to keep me updated on what Terry decides to do. He's conflicted between Michigan and North Carolina. Terrence is solid.
Also, unrelated to this, for those of you that don't know, I recently started a company called, U Recruit, www.recruitforu.com . We will guide kids through the recruiting process, and help them get scholarships. We have about 6 athletes we're helping right now, and are trying to spread the word. Take a look at our site, and pass on the information to anyone you think we could help.

I give that 5 FAKES out of 5 on height. Have him start working on his outside range and maybe Beilein could use him in the class of 2024.
Now, if his 40 time is good, I wouldn't worry too much on his pad level.
As Valenti would say: MAKE PLAYS!!
That's my advice. Good luck.

Tom great idea. One thing that bothered me about the site though: I, a nobody, can go on there are get some HS kid's contact information. Shouldn't / will you limit that kind of information to members (i.e. registered coaches) of the site?

re: URecruit
re: URecruit
Tom, have you considered making a recruit's phone number and email address viewable only to registered coaches or athletes? It seems like posting that stuff to the mercy of the internets, especially when zealous fans become bitter about a recruit's choice, could cause headaches.

The neck and neck between USC, FSU and Michigan for Dorsey is kind of surprising. I haven't seen anyone (with inside info, at least) give UM any better than a "maybe he'll surprise people" kind of chance.
Thanks as always, Tom.

You may be able to
You may be able to
use the craigslist system of having an anonymous email posted that is forwarded to the recruit. Therefore, the recruit has control over who to respond to (e.g. can respond to coaches, but not crazy stalker fans).

My son is 3, and he has pretty poor pad level despite being about 3 feet tall.
Any advice?
