Aquaman plus Analyst Crystal Ballz Matches for UM

Aquaman (Steve Lorenz of 247 sports) dropped by to give us a little note on the crystal ball tool of 247 sports. He dropped the following quote "Usually the given team writer's pick + national analysts almost always = probably what's going to happen." I thought it was rather interesting so I decided to look into it a little more.

On the 2016 UM Targets 247 page I checked in on all the uncommitted targets under the Top Target and High Choice category.  

The anaylysts and writers who came up as national guys or insiders for the Michigan site are:

Ryan Bartow - National Recruiting Insider

JC Shurburtt - National Analyst

Steve Wiltfong - Director of Recruiting

Clint Brewster - Recruiting Insider, Wolverine 247

Steve Lorenz - Michigan Insider, Wolvering 247

Kipp Adams - National Analyst

Barton Simmons - National Recruiting Analyst

Targets = probably what's going to happen

Rashan Gary - Bartow + Wiltfong + Adams + Simmons + Lorenz + Brewster. Note, Shurburtt has a pick in for Clemson made 4/23/15

David Long - Wiltfong + Brewster + Simmons. All these picks were made today. Lorenz has Stanford and Bartow has Washington.

Dylan Crawford - Wiltfong + Lorenz + Bartow+ Simmons

Lavert Hill - Wiltfong + Brewster + Lorenz + Simmons

Jonathan Jones - Shurburtt + Lorenz + Bartow + Wiltfong

Pie Young - Lorenz + Brewster + Bartow +Wiltfong

Pitchforks will be made available promptly after signing day and we will shall take on Aquaman if any of this doesn't pan out.
