Can I get a...10???
Wow, must be because we are doing so well in baseball. This is pretty neat.
Here we come...

We only break this one out for MONSTERS! What a weekend. #GoBlue 〽️ #Hail #RalphieDudek pic.twitter.com/boToUtRIl1
This is pretty great. Seems like #9 is a big one
1 locker open and 8 others partially open.
A subtle lesson in leaning to speak Dudek(ese) ;o)
Whom? Does Steve Lorenz still have eligibility?

This is bonkers. Hope Henning and Theo Johnson are amongst them.
Aquaman does it again......and again...and again....etc
They commit in dozens?
Well, this has turned out to be a rather eventful Sunday, and indeed, no threads like "OT: Found A Four-Year Old Spiral-Cut Ham In My Basement Freezer" yet today.
Or, “Are you concerned...”
True Blue wife is slow cooking pork chops & veggies in chicken stock & beef base. Not even sure if that is legal, but it smells so good.
What did you do with the ham?
That is so weird, I found a 3-year-old spiral cut ham in my basement freezer today.
But I just threw it out, because once I saw this, I didn't need to start a thread.
I'd like to give this weekend a rating of say......30 stars, minimum.
Username checks out.
Go Blue!
Raym only said Go Blue with a visit picture. That's not a commitment.
He is a priority for Warriner though.
No, he’s not. He posted a picture in a Michigan jersey and said “Go Blue,” which is something every single player does on their visit. It’s not a commitment.
This is "my" current top priority recruit. The "R" boys-Rumler and Raym would make one of the best guard tandems ever to play at Michigan...or Raym can be the replacement for Ruiz. It doesn't matter-just keep the "Rs" coming.
Hold me....
What is Tom doing these days? Does ESPN even still have recruiting people.
Last I heard was this book (which I found to be interesting)
https://www.amazon.com/Road-Ann-Arbor-Tom-VanHaaren/dp/1629375926
Jordan Morant committed
It’s raining commits
So we have CB's popping up for Eamonn Dennis, Blake Corum, Kalel Millings, Brenden Rice, Reece Atteberry, AJ Henning and Mitchell Melton. With the other three so far, that would make 10, right?
Anybody know what all of this might boost the class recruiting ranking up to? Curious how it compares to the supposedly all-world class OSU is putting together.
It’s exciting to get all these recruits but unless OSU sucks this year and has a handful of decommits, we won’t finish ahead of them. We get Morant, the #10 safety, they will get Ransom, the #4 safety. We get Henning, a top 100 wr and they have three wr’s (possibly 4) ranked ahead of him. Just know the staff are landing commitments from guys they want and that should be good enough.
Morant is #1 on 247, #20 on Rivals, #9 on ESPN. Adds up to #10 in the 247 composite rankings.
UM out-recruited OSU last year, but they suffered a bit with the ZS/Urban ordeal. But, Day et. al have been having a good offseason of recruiting. I think UM's recruiting will improve if Gattis can improve the offense and start beating OSU on occasion and win a conference championship and far a bit better in bowls. But, the reality is OSU is likely to out recruit UM based on the fact they have more in state talent, more recent success, and have a better national brand at the moment. But, UM doesn't need to out recruit OSU IMO. They just need to consistently land top 10 classes and prevent too much attrition. This means they still have some work to do this year, but a strong season could really help.
OSU had a tiny class in ‘19 by design. 17 players whereas we took 26. If winning is more bodies, we out recruited them Unfortunately it only means they had limited space on an already very talented roster
In the 24/7 composite they were #3 behind Bama and Georgia for the highest per player rankings. They didn’t exactly fall off the face of the earth and Day closed out by snatching Harrison back from our grasps
They fell to 14 in the rankings... Clemson was 16th in 2017..with a class under 20 players.

I've had this conversation numerous times with OSU fans and I think it's a misrepresentation of the data. Yes if you compare the average of their 17 guys to our 26, theirs is better. But, that's not an equal comparison. You must compare the same number of guys in each class. If you compare their 17 to our top 17 our average is better. Their recruiting average is .9186 and the top 17 of UM's is .9253.
So, you have to make an apples to apples comparison. Anytime you compare averages of a larger class to a smaller class the smaller class will have the higher average and the larger class will have more total points. To get a true comparison of you have to compare the same number of guys in each class which still gives UM the advantage. So IMO UM's class was better in both breadth and quality.
F5...F5...F5
Wait... so we got 9 commits today, and 6 of them are silent?
But deadly.
4 are now public. But yeah, it's a lot.
I think we need MOAR Muppets for this recruiting coup!!! What a fun weekend!!! Lets top it off with a couple of FUN endings Monday and Tuesday!!!
Muppets!
You’re doing it wrong.
Somewhere Brian and Jim Henson shed a tear. Probably not together.
