ESPN: Top HS defensive stars of week. Wyatt Shallman

The article is paywalled:

RB/DE Wyatt Shallman
Novi (Mich.) Detroit Catholic Central, 6-3, 250, Class of 2013
CONSIDERING: Committed to Michigan.
PERFORMANCE: Eight tackles, two tackles for loss, two sacks and a forced fumble.
WHAT IMPRESSED: Shallman is being recruited to Michigan for offense, but he also plays defensive end for his high school team. Coming off a hamstring injury, Shallman has showed he is still a force, even if he's not 100 percent. -- Tom VanHaaren

Wyatt Shallman made the list for his defensive abilities.  It will be interesting to see what position he ends up at in college.  

“When your team is winning, be ready to be tough, because winning can make you soft. On the other hand, when your team is losing, stick by them. Keep believing” - Bo Schembechler

I thought he was a pretty solid Michigan commit. All kidding aside, he will be a fullback because of MANBALL etc.

"Yep"

He will be a fullback, IMO. I think we've seen enough evidence in the last few weeks on how the lack of a good FB inhibits our TB production.

He'll be a tailback, not a fullback. And at that size, he can lead block for himself.

The coaches have promised Shallman a shot at running back, and I think that's where he'll stay.

This isn't to say that things don't change, so we'll see.

Who did they play? Was it a decent team?

Yes, it was a good team.  They actually lost, but Shallman still did a great job.

Thank you, Coach Hoke, for bringing Michigan back.
