and WOW!
I guess it will be fun to see what Harbaugh et al can produce in the next 5 days!

But not really. In case some loon out there is thinking I'm making a nutty, recruiting-inspired death threat.

step away from the key board and nobody will get hurt.
that's it, nice and easy....

Remove your headphones, take your hands off the keyboard, and stand up slowly. And for god's sake, would you please put some pants on? Or AT LEAST a pair of underwear???
January 30th, 2016 at 2:36 PM ^
You're not the boss of me.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:35 AM ^
And there you have it. Yikes...

and nerdy girls
January 30th, 2016 at 10:41 AM ^
Definitely. I just saw an internet photo of Stephen Breyer and Condoleeza Rice showering wads of $100 at Stanford recruits. For realz.
January 30th, 2016 at 11:49 AM ^
Good for this kid, usually I say that but don't mean it. This kid choose a school for academic reasons that are actual academic reasons.
January 30th, 2016 at 3:54 PM ^
I'm afraid.
Also a kid who couldn't have made a wrong choice there.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:36 AM ^
I wonder if Teddy Greenstein will write up an article about how this is somehow an ethical violation on Jim Harbaugh's part?
January 30th, 2016 at 9:39 AM ^
Recent events are just showing how ridiculous "reporters" are, no different than knee jerk reactions by those on social media. It is painfully obvious harbaugh is a lightening rod that will attract people far and wide to offer their 2 cents, however uninformed it may be.

has blown up, the newspaper has really suffered in quality. Guys like Teddy Beerstein can just write whatever (sensationalism) they want, to try and sell newspapers. There is no point in writing pieces that take alot of time to get to the truth. Half truths can easily be made into something much more fun to read than the actual truth and can be ready for deadlines alot easier.
The internet on the other hand has got to be exactly on point and truthful merely because of it's reputation of (we all know the saying) you can't believe everything you read on the internet. Internet sites live and die by how many hits they get, who wants to go to sites that are constantly full of shit. Opines are a different animal all together and you can say, like me right here whatever you want.

Can go sit on a 2 liter
January 30th, 2016 at 9:38 AM ^
Have a plan to fill this big loss. Hamilton was one of our higher ranked recruits at a position of need.
January 30th, 2016 at 12:40 PM ^
Right now. With what's happened with the 2013 OL class, Michigan badly needed a large class this year. And with no true tackles now, I'm starting to hyperventilate.
January 30th, 2016 at 3:00 PM ^
You heard it here first, folks
January 30th, 2016 at 9:37 AM ^
Dead period is coming up within hours.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:38 AM ^
Back to the drawing board. One thing is for sure, this isn't the safe (and "boring") recruting classes of one Brady Hoke.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:38 AM ^
This one hurts. We really need a good replacement for him. We have seen how poor OL numbers hurt before.

Remember... We are in VERY good shape with the #1 Tackle in 2017. In fact I belive he may be on campus this weekend.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:43 AM ^
I see what you are saying, but there's no way to spin this as anything but a very significant loss just a few days before signing day. End of the world, no, but a big loss.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:46 AM ^
I thought we were in good shape with Hamilton
January 30th, 2016 at 9:51 AM ^
freshmen O-Linemen typically redshirt. In 2017, we will potentially be replacing 3-4 starters on the offensive line. Need to get them into the system in 2016 to be ready to go the following year and even then, they won't have much experience. Hope some of the underclassmen this year get some valuable playing time.

Ahhhhhhh run in circles with my head cut off

January 30th, 2016 at 9:56 AM ^
no, we did not. That's just you. Typical serial killer use of "/s".
January 30th, 2016 at 9:39 AM ^
Holy crap!!! PLEASE don't let this Silent Commit be anything but an OL
January 30th, 2016 at 9:40 AM ^
Sam posted something about him on Scout.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:42 AM ^
a little pleased.
Get an OT now, even a raw 3* - let's do a crowd sourcing and find all OTs in other schools commit list.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:51 AM ^
Props to Brandon Justice for being the first person to have that. I WAS WRONG.
Also it looks like Viramontes has been bulking up. Apparently Utah isn't even recruiting him as a QB, and obviously they're a spread team. Bulking for LB/H-back maybe?

Most wouldn't.
January 30th, 2016 at 10:43 AM ^
Man up. Nice.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:39 AM ^
Can't really rip Stanford because we did the same thing to them with Long but well played Shaw... Well played…
January 30th, 2016 at 9:39 AM ^
We're all going to die!!!!
January 30th, 2016 at 9:40 AM ^
I've decided to start panicking.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:40 AM ^
Went to Baltimore.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:40 AM ^
I can't even be mad. A Stanford education is hard to pass up.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:40 AM ^
This is more stressful than the stock market
January 30th, 2016 at 10:26 AM ^
This is the craziest lead-up to National Signing Day that I've ever seen. I've only been following it heavily for about the past 10 years, though.
January 30th, 2016 at 10:39 AM ^
For real Magnus! I normally check MgoBlog 20 times a day, but now it is actually justified.
January 30th, 2016 at 12:47 PM ^
For over 35 years and I don't recall anything like this either. Just crazy. Normally, Michigan has locked down their class by now, plus I think the coaches wanted to stay out of the last second feeding frenzy.
