#1 2015 Prospect - DE Jashon Cornell
Interesting article featured in ESPN about this kid. Seems like a hard worker, with his head screwed on straight.
Mentions George Campbell and Damien Harris keeping up with him, hoping to sway him... Nice to hear
Sounds like Iowa has a shot with him, since they are the first to offer, and he is close with current player Broderick Binns.
Imagine what Mattison could do with him and Hand coming off opposite ends!!

And Bryan Mone coming up the middle. And Jabrill Peppers covering their backs
August 29th, 2013 at 10:56 PM ^
but I can't figure out why McDowell hasn't also been mentioned.

Here is a highlight reel on Jashon Cornell...

That ESPN is a pretty serious outlier on Cornell. 247 has him at 18, and Scout has him at 47. The Michigan Rivals guys have said they don't think he's anywhere near the #1 player in the class either. He's clearly a major talent, but doesn't sound like there's any reason to think he ends up #1.

Thousandth time I've said this, but seriously, commits recruiting other players is huge for us. I don't know if like a chart of who influenced who in each class but it's been awesome
And now, has it reached the pantheon of its existence? We have two 5* commits recruiting a 3rd 5*. Not sure it gets better than that. Maybe only if Hand commits and he and Jabrill go recruit Fournette...oh wait, that's already half happened

NAH!!!
August 29th, 2013 at 9:22 PM ^
He would be great to have on the team! I don't think Iowa is much of a factor though, because...well, they're Iowa.
August 29th, 2013 at 9:25 PM ^
Not that I don't like Alabi, but I want this kid much more. I think I've said that before. Kid is crazy good.
August 29th, 2013 at 9:45 PM ^
jason cornell, keisean lucier-south, tim settle....all elite guys we might get. I'd take 2 of em!
August 29th, 2013 at 10:56 PM ^
Heck, 1 of those guys would be great, but let's be greedy and get multiple.

FWIW, Irish fans feel pretty confident he's their's. Is he at a catholic school or something?
August 29th, 2013 at 11:18 PM ^
because the initial word on Cornell was that he's favoring Notre Dame but Cornell himself said that's not true and the scuttlebutt since then would seem to suggest Michigan is tied or leading ND for his services at this point.
Even if he does go to ND, he'd just transfer out within a year anyway so he should save the trouble and just come here instead

I think once he visits and he gets his mom on campus and she meets Hoke, I think he and his family will be sold on Michigan. That link Ace posted in Thursday Recruiting was pretty good regarding the type of kid Cornell is. I'd love to have a DL capable of blowing up bombs.
