Angry Cats Fired Toward Nebraska - TE Commit Matt Snyder to Join DE Reuben Jones on Campus this Weekend
A pair of Nebraska commits will be joining the festivities in Ann Arbor this weekend as Harbaugh welcomes Mike Riley to the Big 10. Just in - Jay H and Drevno convinced 3 star TE Matt Snyder to come visit (this would appear to be be a backup plan if Clark goes Bruins), but he sounded like he was interested anyhow.
"I had pretty much decided that I wanted to take the visit," Snyder said. "It was more about working out the details with the coaches today and getting to meet them. They were friendly and really easy to talk with. We talked a lot about football but other stuff as well."
I believe Snyder had committed to Riley at Oregon State, and then followed him to Nebraska on 12/30.
Reuben Jones, a 3 star out of FL - also a NE commit - was already planning to visit. Jones from all indications is not in the same warm fuzzy zone with Riley's staff as he was with Petrino's Pelini's. Jones is Frank Clark type size out of HS, but actually plays the position rather than S. He also is familiar with Michigan thru the Tigers who camp in his hometown. ;) Jones sounds like a pretty realistic opportunity. Jones has offers from MSU and Iowa (among others) - 2 staffs good at finding defensive talent at the 3 star level. He would be the type of pickup you'd be very happy with in a transition recruiting year.
Jones was offered by the coaching staff two weeks ago and has expressed heavy interest in the Wolverines, who are believed to be a potential leader for his services, depending on the outcome of the official.
Ace discussed both guys on front page today.

Someone has to stand up to angry cats, and if I have to be the one to make the first strike, so be it. I think your aunt would support my cause.

PETA is currently drafting a cease & decist letter to remove the blatant disregard for the well being of felines, and the labeling of their temperment in a negative manner.

Pelini's kitties don't look very angry.
(Can't believe that is a sentence I actually typed)

This was in happier times. If any of you have ever dared to cross a cat you can only imagine what the scene was like when Bo came home to break the news of his dismissal.

I'm sure this has been pointed out a lot, but every time I see that picture I think of Gaear Grimsrud. I wonder if Pelini also likes pancakes?

What happened to the gentleman's agreement? Where is Joe Tiller when you need him? Jimmy's hawking snake oil!

agreement" being broken by Meyer? Maybe Bielema too?

It's hard to believe Dantonio would do or say anything against Ohi State. If there's one thing that he seems to love more than whining and pouting about anything M does, it's fawning over that school down south.

Time for the Magnus breakdown.
January 19th, 2015 at 9:14 PM ^
I thought this said "time for the Magnus meltdown" at first.

Dear Mr. Hoke,
Randy Gregory is going to be a top 10 NFL draft pick at 240 lbs. Calhoun was 240ish in is breakout RS SO year (he is 249 now). Ojemudia is 249 as well; all these guys are 3 years older.
One redshirt year and S&C, and he will be fine in the 240s. Both your ends need not be 260+.

Confused... Your first sentence really makes it seem like Harbaugh is going to literally welcome Mike Riley to Ann Arbor and the B1G while bringing some recruits with him?!?
I mean, I figured it out but you didn't make it easy. NO MOAR METAPHORS!

Michigan is apparentely in contact with current texas QB commit (4*) named Zach Gentry per the twittersphere. Not sure if there is any mutual interest, but it reinforces that Harbaugh really wants a 2nd QB in the class.

So... Did the BIG hands off recruiting policy die with Urban dropping the gloves? I thought there was a gentlemans understanding that you just kinda let the other BIG guys recruits be.. I know Dantonio came out of the weeds and blasted Unlce Urbz about out a few years back.
