Not sure I would call it a pipeline, but Michigan has brought in some good offensive linemen from the Land of Lincoln as far back as I can remember. With apologies to those I've missed...

Kurt Anderson - Glenview, IL
Kurt Becker - Aurora, IL
Mark Donahue - Oak Lawn, IL
Thomas Guynes - Kankakee, IL
Trezelle Jenkins - Chicago
Mike Kenn - Evanston, IL
George Lilja - Orland Park, IL
David Molk - Palos Hills, IL
David Moosman - Libertyville, IL
Tony Pape - Darien, IL
Michael Schofield - Orland Park, IL
Derrick Walker - Glenwood, IL
Chris Ziemann - Aurora, IL

Is that as a mere "powerful 6-foot-5, 324-pound guard prospect" Jarvis might be repurposed to tight end under Coach Harbaugh. Thus our *tight end* pipeline in Illinois. I see (never SEC), said the blind man as he picked up his hammer and saw.

Former Michigan Center and Rimington Award winner David Molk is from Illinois.

M also recruited Illinois OL Ethan Pocic, but stopped when the OL position was filled.  Long story short... Not a good decision by Hoke and coaches.
