Leilon "is Willing" Willingham ,...COME ON DOWN !
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:09 PM ^
Man......
Your posts are useless and repetitive.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:12 PM ^
BOOM UNABOMBER'D.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:13 PM ^
"Boom" is right.
January 22nd, 2011 at 10:36 PM ^
but well done sir, well done indeed
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:09 PM ^
I would love to have Willingham and open up a pipeline to Mullen High in Denver. They have back to back state championships and are always nationally ranked. They have a highly rated QB for next year's class named Cyler Miles.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:13 PM ^
Mullen is a football factory in Denver and coached by Dave Logan. Willingham was up at CU when Kellen Jones was there apparently and sounds like this weekend has been good all around for the visitors.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:41 PM ^
do some scouting for us next year, tell us if the rivals ratings are correct
January 22nd, 2011 at 9:51 PM ^
so not like we havent been there before. Think he was in that last lloyd class that RR finished.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:18 PM ^
January 22nd, 2011 at 10:06 PM ^
Name seems a little too close to Miley Cyrus for my taste. However, if he can throw a football to a receiver's chest and not 5 feet behind him or over his head I guess I can let it slide.
January 22nd, 2011 at 10:18 PM ^
Montannah Hanna?
January 23rd, 2011 at 12:17 AM ^
Would Nate Montana consider transferring just to make this work? We don't have to play him, he can just velcro denard's shoes up before he takes the field.
January 22nd, 2011 at 10:52 PM ^
namesakes all wrapped up
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:10 PM ^
Hoke has done well so far to try and salvage this class. If he can snake oil (too soon?) a few more prospects then this calss could be a success.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:15 PM ^
Is an awesome phrase. Danny Hope brought it back. Brady Hoke was presented a winged wizard hat by Dave Brandon to become the lastest in a long line of snake oil salesman. Dating back to Fielding Yost.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:37 PM ^
Speaking of Danny Hope.....does Purdue still have a team? Are they participating in recruiting? I haven't heard one peep about the Boilermakers since we played them.
January 22nd, 2011 at 11:06 PM ^
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:20 PM ^
I think we have 17 recruits practically in the bag. That in itself is a real success considering we're were sitting at 10 a few days ago and coach Hoke had 2 weeks to work with. I think hauling in 19 may not be out of the question and a real coup in my opnion.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:24 PM ^
us get 17-19 commits at tops then take in the motherload of talent next year
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:36 PM ^
It's starting to look like this class if going to fill up, which is great.
14 commits right now.
There are 3 kids on campus now (according to TomVH visit list) that we have a great shot with: Willingham, McClure, and Clark plus we have a great shot at landing Chris Bryant and Thomas Rawls.
Not to mention we could still end up with Fisher.
If Hoke doesn't call Hakeem Flowers today, it could be that he's expecting to fill this class up with prospects at other positions.
I think most people were saying a few days ago that it would be a success for Hoke to get 15 kids in this class.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:41 PM ^
Hoke is exceeding expectations already...it would be an unbelievable acheivement if he fills out this class.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:37 PM ^
Take em out of there! they could die!
But yes, our current standing is pretty impressive given the circumstances.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:11 PM ^
Please. Please. Please. And Please. C'mon!
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:11 PM ^
We'll have to see. I would think Mattison can make a good impression on him, considering that he visited us instead of the school he was committed to.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:14 PM ^
Scout no longer has him commited to A&M as even a soft verbal, fwiw. I wonder what the circumstances are that he commited under. It's pretty strange.
Him and Kellen Jones side-by-side would be formidable a few years down the road.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:16 PM ^
Agreed, this has been an awesome weekend already, Go Hoke, Go Blue!
January 22nd, 2011 at 9:02 PM ^
apparently because one of his lifelong and closest friends from Denver, Mister Jones, was a RS frosh there this year and has been working on Willingham since he went to College Station.
Requisite Counting Crows reference: "Mister Jones and me ... want to be big stars."
January 22nd, 2011 at 9:07 PM ^
Thanks.
Everytime I see a guy named Mister, I lol. Mainly at imagining what their parents were thinking.
January 22nd, 2011 at 10:08 PM ^
I wonder what Lloyd had been thinking...
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:21 PM ^
a fantastic addition! Man, Michigan has already climbed back to the mid 30's in rankings! If they can land 18-19 they may make it back to the top 20.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:21 PM ^
since the Illinois game. Come one Brady keep them coming.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:22 PM ^
I am just trying to have fun for one night here after 3 years of misery. If YOU have a problem with my posts just say so. Otherwise you know what to do.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:36 PM ^
Yes. To Bolivia you go.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:22 PM ^
This would be a great get for the staff. I know that goes without saying but I'm just having so much fun hitting F5 right now! Woo!
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:23 PM ^
Havent's seen anything yet, Has there been an announcement?
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:24 PM ^
He's announcing tomorrow evening.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
He is announcing tomorrow night.
Edit: Beat me to it
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^

Announcing tomorrow night.
EDIT: What they said...
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:25 PM ^
Tomorrow around 7:00 PM
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:24 PM ^
Sounds like a good weekend. I hope he comits to us. Him and Jones are promising.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:30 PM ^
I checked Rivals and Mullen has two QBs in the 2012 class that are by Rivals' standards good enough to play Div. 1. How the hell does that work? Quarterback by committee is never a good idea.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:46 PM ^
~50% of QBs drafted in the first round of the NFL draft are a bust. I suspect the success ratio for 18 year olds is no better than that.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:54 PM ^
what does that have to do with Mullen having two recruitable QBs? How did they both get enough playing time to be judged as division one recruits?
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:31 PM ^
hope so.Has anybody heard about Stefan McClure visit.GO BLUE!!!
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:32 PM ^
Hope I am wrong, from what it appears McClure is strong with Ucla and Saban & Co. are nosing around on F. Raven.
January 22nd, 2011 at 8:37 PM ^
from who does that appear?
January 22nd, 2011 at 10:34 PM ^
Well, if UCLA is trying to get McClure, the fact that they fired their defensive coordinator and still hasn't filled that position yet is probably good for us.
