Final Recruiting Class Predictions

If I woke up from a coma in December and saw that class, I'd know that we'd beaten UConn, ND, and MSU and probably have gotten 8 wins

That would be a great class for being so small, but i would put Bryant in on the Oline. I still see us fighting hard to get Kris Frost, if Auburn is telling(lying) him he has a great chance at WR, we could be in trouble. And hopefully if we do land Dallas Crawford he'll be able to persuade Sammy to join the family

The machine is coming together.  Go blue !!!

This is just a feeling I have, but I think we get one more LB, though I'm not sure who you'd take out if that happened.

Really great shot at S Avery Walls

Nervous about Zettel. Lifelong Michigan fan is needed to help turn this thing around.  

QB: Sousa

RB: Hart, Thomas Rawls (if his grades are good)

WR: Conway, Jordan

OL: Miller, Fisher, Bryant, Walsh, Martin

DL: Beyer, Rock, Zettel, Damon Knox (again, assuming his academics are clear)

LB: Jones, LBTBNL

CB: Hollowell, Brown, mayyyybe Valdez Showers

S: Walls

and the mega Florida visit for MSU or Iowa happens I believe they will pull either Haha or Karlos Williams. I predict the Patti/Hart visit and the presentation they put on for Mr. Patti will end up paying huge dividends.
If they do land Walls (distinct possibility) I hope he can convince R. Drew to join the Maize & Blue too.

It all really depends on the start of the season.  If we can start strong, several top recruits will see us as worthwhile.  If we struggle we will have to settle for lesser players to finish the class.

My gut tells me we start 5-0 and land a couple of stars like Avery Walls and Ray Drew.

Go Blue!

I really like how our class is shaping up. While there may not be too many immediate impact stars (Hart, Thomas, and Frost could be exceptions), this is the type of class that builds depth. Its the type of class that creates the backbone of a program. And to be honest, its the type of class we needed over the past couple seasons.

Got to get more of these guys from our backyard.

QB: Sousa

RB: Hart

WR: Conway, Jordan

OL: Walsh, Fisher, Bryant, Miller, Hobbi

DL: Zettel, Rock, Beyer

LB: Frost, Jones

CB: Hollowell, Brown, Crawford

S: Walls

Two wildcard picks if this season goes very well

WR: Sammy Watkins

DE: Ray Drew

guess/wish is that our 2011 class could look like this if we get the ball rolling with some great wins.

1 QB-Sousa-

1 RB -D. Hart

2  WR-Conway, Watkins

5 OL-Fisher, Posada, Walsh, Miller

4 DL-Beyer, Rock, Zettel, Cooper

3 LB-Jones, Frost, Thomas

3 DB-Hollowell, Brown, Crawford

Mind you there will be room for gray shirting.  I read the other day not sure where but the schollys are first come first served especially for the OL prospects, sry can't remember where I read that at.  Don't  ask me to explain the gray shirt it's just my wish list.

QB - Sousa

RB - Hart

WR - Conway, Jordan

OL - Miller, Fisher, Martin, Ball, Walsh, Bryant

DL - Rock, Cooper

DE - Beyer, Drew

ILB - Jones      would absolutely love to get Dawson or Laquinten Smith but not holding breath

OLB - Fingers crossed for B Jackson or maybe Dugan

S - Avery Walls

CB - Hollowell, Brown, and Showers

I know he can play D line as well but I thought we have been recruiting him to play OL.

Has this changed?  Has he expressed a preference in playing on the defensive side?
