Good news w/regard to Zettel
I apologize if this has been posted already -- couldn't find it anywhere -- but according to Bill Kurelic at ESPN (Insider link here), OL/DE Anthony Zettel says Michigan State is no longer in his top two. It's now Michigan at #1 and Penn State at #2, with Sparty at #3.
I won't provide any other specific info as to avoid the wrath of the behind-the-paywall-content gods, but this certainly sounds like good news for us. Could be an outstanding O-line class.

I think he might be coming in as a D-line prospect since he lost a few lbs, but good news regardless

if he wants play slot receiver or pitch middle relief. I just want to get him on campus.

In reading the article, things are still looking good with Zettel. He says he is more comfortable with Michigan and that he thinks we are on the rise. Truer words have never been spoken.

While on the rise, winning games this fall is what is going to get him to commit. And trust me, we are going to be winning lots of games this season and be bringing Zettel and other big time guys to UM.

he can play corner?
August 12th, 2010 at 8:24 AM ^
If memory serves, Zettel said a long time ago that he was going to explore all of his options. Michigan is his favorite, but he was never going to commit early. No reason to worry -- yet.

I can't take any more ____________(is there a new term we can use besides dong punches?)

He said in July, that he won't decide till after his senior season.
August 12th, 2010 at 10:19 AM ^
His commitment (and others) will look better and better.
(I realize that this is probably "no news" to everybody)
Just win baby!

I don't really view Penn State as much of a threat as long as we start out the season strong.
August 12th, 2010 at 12:15 PM ^
The longer he waits to commit the more attention he'll get. Perhaps he'll get a higher rating by the recruiting sites, if that matters to you.

I really hope Zettel comes to Michigan, he's a great prospect. I also hope he decides to play OG, but he'll be very good on the DL if that's where he ends up.
Like everyone else said, just win and he's ours. Winning against Penn State, it seems, would be the slam dunk.
