I wonder if the coaches told him to hold off for that big recruiting (no coach contact) weekend all the current commits and kids of high interest are planning. Sam mentioned this morning that the Florida kids, Junior Colson. JJ McCarthy (2022 CB recruit Domani Jackson) and the other recruits are planning on being on campus together to hang and watch a game.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:41 PM ^
That would be cool. But if 2020 has taught me anything assume this is related to pain.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:17 PM ^
You win, AND I got a typo on the year.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:43 PM ^
SEXY BITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 21st, 2020 at 12:53 PM ^
Bits is an extremely accurate description in this instance.
October 21st, 2020 at 1:38 PM ^
This is not the Benny I was hoping to see here.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:18 PM ^
Come on Benny!!!
October 21st, 2020 at 12:36 PM ^
I recently heard rumors that OSU has been pushing hard for Benny.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:43 PM ^
Damnit, Frank!
October 21st, 2020 at 3:49 PM ^
You mean Damn it OSU troll?
October 21st, 2020 at 12:55 PM ^
Funny, because I heard they were full except for a couple of 5 stars they are waiting till signing day to make a decision, or announcement.

Is there a link, or would you care to elaborate? OSU did just fall out of contention for Tywone Malone, so it could be related.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:38 PM ^
So can Nua close the deal here or not?
October 21st, 2020 at 1:36 PM ^
Hey Nua. PUT THAT COFFEE DOWN. Coffee is for closers.
October 21st, 2020 at 3:21 PM ^
his SNL xmas parody of that scene is one of my favorites.
October 21st, 2020 at 4:01 PM ^
That guy is doing some serious SNL work right now.

Not good Bob.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:45 PM ^
It seems we have a hard time recruiting the few real elite talent in the state. Hope this is not an upcoming dong punch.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:46 PM ^
Damn MSU and their brand strategy!
October 21st, 2020 at 12:48 PM ^
seems crazy that if the class doesn't add a DT that Michigan will have recruited only 2 DT's in 4 years... I understand that some SDE may be turned into DT's but this seems crazy for a team that seems to still want to run a 4 man front. Unless i missed something and these recent 4 person LB classes are indicative of a change in philosophy.
October 21st, 2020 at 12:51 PM ^
Gives MSU a bit more time to work on their "brand"
October 21st, 2020 at 1:29 PM ^
Wait until the recruits feel the actual sear of the "brand".
October 21st, 2020 at 12:53 PM ^
Damn u DTs... c'mon Ben
October 21st, 2020 at 12:55 PM ^
Nua isnt getting it done recruiting. there, i finally said it.
October 21st, 2020 at 1:42 PM ^
This has already been said countless times. If you mean by you, then ok.
I personally was hoping Nua would bring in some west coast mammoth samoan DT's. At least one a year. Outside of one year, we have struck out on DT recruiting rather hard.
October 21st, 2020 at 2:14 PM ^
Maybe we need a nua dline coach???
October 21st, 2020 at 2:32 PM ^
You spelled knew wrong
October 21st, 2020 at 3:25 PM ^
Gnu he didn’t
October 21st, 2020 at 1:04 PM ^
Maybe it's the pessimist in me, but when guys who seemingly lean toward M delay their decision, unfavorable things happen more often than not.
October 21st, 2020 at 8:17 PM ^
That’s called reality, not pessimism
October 21st, 2020 at 1:45 PM ^
I hope there is a backup plan for once.
Like start pinging the directional schools and seeing who from their classes would jump.
At least they have corporeal beings which means they recruit better than we have been.
October 21st, 2020 at 1:45 PM ^
At DT, i like Rooks better than Benny. But i like Benny as a prospect at OL better than Rooks on DL.
IMO, i think we get Benny and not Rooks.
October 21st, 2020 at 1:50 PM ^
With Rooks apparently leaning elsewhere and now this delay who would be plan C?
October 21st, 2020 at 1:51 PM ^
Getting ridiculous at this point. Find a DT so we can have some bodies at least!!
October 21st, 2020 at 1:58 PM ^
I would look at some DT's with lesser offer sheets and get one immediately to, as you said, have at least a body.
October 21st, 2020 at 1:51 PM ^
Not panicking on this one at this time. While may not seem favorable to UM, lots of plausible reasons could be present for the delay.
October 21st, 2020 at 2:25 PM ^
He already said why! Everyone makes the playoffs. Boy we love to panic around here! Oh no fire everyone because Nua needs a Nua’r job! Literally no one in here could do a better job! It’s 2020 and we are all being affected so for anyone to pretend to know anything about anyone else’s thought patterns is just a bunch of cow manure. Oh no he changed his mind!
October 21st, 2020 at 6:55 PM ^
October 21st, 2020 at 1:56 PM ^
Well, this can't be good news... what is Plan C ? At this point an immobile object would be good to at least clog the inside.
October 21st, 2020 at 2:18 PM ^
Maybe it’s a stare down with Rooks.
October 21st, 2020 at 2:37 PM ^
Soooo....Kentucky?
This reeks of a kid wanting to go anywhere but Michigan. Hope Nua steps it up either from a development or a recruiting standpoint as something isn’t working. I am fine with the grow a DT strategy but if they’re going to do that I’d want to see two more of them in this class, beyond just Guy and Giudice.
Hope the coaches are scouring senior film to try to find a late riser and better yet TWO late risers.
October 21st, 2020 at 2:51 PM ^
Maybe time to start sniffing around the transfer portal?
October 21st, 2020 at 4:18 PM ^
i try not to sniff anyone else's transfer portals.
October 21st, 2020 at 11:12 PM ^
Let them. We are about to take off in a big way. Would love to see to get better recruits...
October 22nd, 2020 at 3:58 PM ^
I would be shocked if he comes to Michigan. Seems to be a bit of a drama queen. We will be fine without him.
