#1 RB Najee Harris to attend BBQ at the Big House
Title says it all. Huge to get him on campus with an unofficial.

Title says it almost all... he's an Alabama commit, which makes it even more intriguing.
NM. He's from CA.
Most of what I have read about him (not much) has suggested that he's a "nominal" Bama commit still entertaining offers. It sounds like Bama knows this, and so does everybody else. It's nice to be in on him even if he doesn't flip our way.
This has to be the most star studded BBQ ever

They can come for the good grub, but stay for the championships.
what you did there.
... will be champions, and those who don't will be doctors, lawyers and captains of industry.
Well, as for those who leave, maybe not in this instance, considering the schools they'd likely attend.
Desean Holmes on the list. I wonder if he isn't listed because he came out in 2015.
I believe he's already chosen another school, not D1 I believe.
Gracias!
I remember hearong in June that Desean was "restaring the process" and I can't find any news after that in any articles or on his twitter.
Thank you for posting. That is an impressive list.
Who has JKP as a three star?
Rivals does, if not others.
My son is class of 2019. Making me feel very very old to see kids his age being recruited.
Until your kids are older than the recruits
I'll take the Two Star from Glasgow, KY. GLASGOW!!
Are we trending down with him or what?
Nah, my cousin is an amateur rapper and he dropped his EP on us last 4th of July. But this is a close second.
Dat Bull?
Duh, Jim Harbaugh is gonna be there!!!!
RR or Brady Hoke?
Hoke and Harbaugh continuing the new tradition. One of RR's best decisions. That and Denard.
I also liked requiring players to "earn their wings."
Never stop recruiting, never settle, never assume..I like the staffs approach to recruiting
I'm guessing he just likes BBQ until I hear otherwise....
I wouldn't put too much weight into this. If he comes back for an official, then we're talking about a possible flip.
I disagree, this is much bigger than an official visit. He is paying his own way to come visit for the BBQ. Now I will grant you that if he comes back again for an official, it would be a good thing. But visiting campus on his own dime is bigger than just an official in my opinion.

I was about to post the same thing. If this is a trip east for him on his dime just to come to the BBQ, then it is a big deal. If he is out this way doing a midwest tour of the big boys then not as big a deal as an official.
I don't see it that way at all. If he's paying out of pocket to be here, that's only a good thing. I'd prefer that it isn't an official visit.
I think its more important at this point,...hes paying his own way
maybe saban's money...
By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes.
If anybody wants a nice Sunday dong punch they are replaying the Michigan State vs. Michigan game on ESPNU 7pm est.
I was thinking about watching it until about a minute to go in the 4th quarter then maybe catching up on my taxes or having my wife drop a bowling ball on my nuts either way I will be having more fun then watching the end of the game.
Who sent you?!?
I can't watch it, not even the first 59 minutes. Any reference to that game and I feel pain.
Same. Which sucks because it was one hell of a game that I would love to watch again but probably never will. It still hurts.
I didn't get too worked up over it because I see our program as ascendant. JH will restore MSU to their historic subordinate position vis-a-vis us. Mork is going to get all the oxygen taken out of his room.
I have it on good authority that game never happened.
What game?
Exactly.
Can't hurt!
wait, that doesn't quite sound right, does it?
Maybe at Penn State.
fuck penn state
I'll take it. Just getting him on campus is a good start.
Won't put too much stock in him until I hear he wants to come back for an official visit. But if that happens, then we're really cooking with gas.
