Austin Brown to Wisconsin

Submitted by jerseyblue on July 4th, 2021 at 2:22 PM

IL 3* Safety Austin Brown just committed to Wisconsin. He was one of 4 Safeties in our top tier of options. The others are: 4* Keon Sabb(who is waiting to see how our season goes), 4* Dillon Tatum(who we're trying to put at ease after the Clinkscale hire) and 4* D'Arco Perkins-McAllister(not a lot of noise after his visit except 1 crystal ball.)

Don't really know these players enough to differentiate, but seems like I have been seeing the latter two especially in roundups, etc. Sounds like Michigan is in good position to grab one or two of the remaining.

 

But they should really recruit Player Name, a 6'6" 250 lb Safety out of Ann Arbor, MI. He is the number 1 overall recruit and an incoming freshman, even though he was technically created in 2013... hold on let me get back to you on the type of gloves and helmet he is wearing.

This. Just wrote a novel about this but I'm on mobile and the formatting just makes it a wall of text so I deleted it. In short, bagmen isn't an excuse as of a few days ago. Now people will just have to admit their favorite programs suck and/or don't care. OSU cares and isn't an inbred cult like UM. Simple as that. They aren't the North Korea of CFB. A man that died in 2006 isn't their eternal leader, ala Kim Il-Sung. They dgaf if you knew Woody, they care about winning. They know that 95% of blue chip kids dgaf about school, the same way UM used to. They have a football program. The goal is to win games. They do. Crying about bagmen literally no longer applies.

It's just a deflection now. We cannot accept that other programs actually get the most out of their talent.

If these coaches in the past decade or so actually were able to extract every ounce of talent out of these top 10-20 recruiting classes Michigan consistently pulls in, they would have been to Indy and won the BT multiple times. 

But, because they don't, we are left stuck with the ol "bagmen" shtick.
