2013 OT J J Gustafson (Dallas, TX) Offered

2013 OL J J Gustafson (Dallas, TX) is reporting a Michigan offer. He is a team mate of WR Jake Oliver at Jesuit HS.

He stands at 6'6" and weighs in at 265 (but has a frame to build on)

He is ranked a 3 star prospect and sports offers from Oklahoma, Clemson and a couple of Texas schools. Seems to favor Texas A&M early.

Even though he is rated 3 star - he may end up higher later in the year.

Michigan knows they won't get him out of the Southwest, but they want to stay in the good graces of a high school that produces a great amount of division 1 talent. This is how you get top flight talent. Love the move. If you get the kid, great, if not, at least you got some glad handing done at a football hot bed. Kudos to the Michigan director of scouting in the southwest.

A Saban move... more like a Schembechler move, and not because i know how Bo recruited, but because i'm arrogant and I won't accept Saban doing anything right in the field of recruiting.

Little known fact, there was a moment of silence at the Bama game that Saturday, and you could've heard a pin drop. He was a deeply respected man in college football, and even I own his book "Bo's lasting lessons". That book had a lot of ideas that I use in the work place, fantastic read.

 Schools with great traditions of winning usually respect the qualities in other programs. I respect Alabama and most of their fans, I just don't like Nick Saban. If he where coaching Michigan i'm sure folks would make excuses for him here also.

 I can't wait for The game in Jerryworld! if we win it's a program changer, if we keep it close it will be like the Fab 5's first game against Duke. If we get blown out it's a back to the drawing board moment. The win would bring instant respect from everyone even the biggest doubters. We got more to win and more to lose in that game, i hop we're 110% ready to play 4 quarters.

Alabama is losing a lot of their starters, with 9 of their players good enough to be invited to the combine.  1st game of the year, they wont be expecting D-Robs speed.  

This is what I tell myself to make me think we're going to smoke them, even though when they lose one 5* player, they have 2 more sitting behind him.  I hope we win, but Alabama has such a ridiculous amount of talent.

Doesn't actually produce that much D-I talent.  If Hoke's going try to establish Texas pipelines, there are better schools to do it at.  Also, this shouldn't be taken as a knock on Gustafson--I love seeing Texas kids head up A2.

Big upside but comes from an Aggie family (both parents and grandfather I think). I saw something on an A&M board about him coming to Aggie games since he was 2.

the notion of Hoke telling him an Aggie joke would be out of the question.

I thought Sione grew up in Utah. Close enough to Texas though.

265 lbs is about where Lewan showed up when he got on campus, and Gustafson still has 17 months before he steps foot on our campus if he were to sign.  If he gained a half pound a week, he'd be 300 pounds by the time he stepped foot on campus.

Gaining a half a pound a week would be a really, really tough thing to do. Don't count on him gaining any weight during the season and during summer practices. Not trying to be snarky or dickish, but half pound per week for 17 months is ridiculous to ask.
