I WASN'T EVEN BUCKLED UP!!!!
BUT GETTING HIT WITH THIS GOOD NEWS IS MUCH BETTER THAN GETTING HIT WHILE NOT BUCKLED IN!
I JUST WENT THROUGHT THE WINDSHIELD
AND WHY ARE WE SHOUTING? THEN AGAIN, WHY NOT?
Welcome, may you destroy many people for us in the near future.
I'm not ready for this.
Huge get! Welcome Darrin!
Confirmed via TomVH, Sam Webb, and Kirkland Jr. himself.
What does a commitment really mean these days. Still good to see though.
Party pooper.
Tremendous news!
Nurse!
Did you know she's the mom on Modern Family?
You receive head after a lady takes out her dentures.
I puked.
For the past week when I try to visit http://www.scout.com/ all I get is a blank page. Running FF 15.
Have they changed their site to a new address?
Works for me. They just overhauled their site this past week so that may be why.
In Safari there's no problem, so the problem seems to be connected to FF. I'm not having any issues getting to any other sites, and I can get to the Scout/GoBlueWolverine message board page in FF.. but not their home page. Are you using FF or some other browser?
I'm using FF and am able to get to their home page and this story: Kirkland goes Blue
"They welcomed me with open arms and made me feel like part of the family," the 6-foot-2, 225-pound linebacker said. "They accepted me as part of their own and I know this is the right school for me and it feels great."
Firefox is up to version 29.
Welcome home Darrin!
It or ticket! Go Blue!
Go Blue!
"Kirkland Jr. will spend just Saturday night in Ann Arbor and while all things are trending in a positive direction he told me that a commitment will not happen. He will stick to his timeline of an August decision date but another positive experience on campus definitely helps Michigan’s cause as these types of visits work wonders with recruits."
Time to watch Kirklands film!

247: Kirkland commits to Michigan
"As soon as I saw the Block M on campus, I knew I was committing on this trip," Kirkland said. "I felt great about Michigan. My parents really like Michigan and I'm excited to be a part of the Michigan program."
Go Blue!
Nice little start to this beautiful Sunday afternoon! Go Blue!
As pessimistic as I am about the direction of the program, they are still recruiting well despite all the negativity that has surrounded the last two seasons.
They refuse to be stopped!
Now we just need to win. That's all!
Well that's some nice and surprising news.

Kirkland looks kind of small on film and his competition is absolutely atrocious. Still happy for the commitment but I'm taking him with a grain of salt.
Tell me more about your experiences as a college football recruiting coordinator.
Just watch his film, it's obvious. Have your laugh though. *clap* *clap*
Hoke and Co. missed something you didn't.
Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Wisconsin, Penn State, Tennessee, Nebraska, and a couple of dozen other coaching staffs.
yes let's here your recruiting experience because since when is 6'2 225 small for a high school Junior?
name a team in his football conference, or what division he plays in without looking it up.
Kirkland probably got an OTPHJ from Big Mike's girlfriend at prom or something.
He plays in the MIC. Competition is unbelievable. Top conference in Indiana and ranked as one of the top conferences in the country. Routinely at least one team in the conference is ranked in the top 25 nationally if not more. Warren Central, Carmel, Ben Davis, Pike, Center Grove, Lawrence Central. May be other things to worry about (not saying there is) but the level of his high school competition is not one of the.
Yup. That conference is stacked. I'm a Lawrence Central alumnus, and when I was there we were in Conference Indiana. We would have been smoked in the MIC. Anyway, there are a TON of athletes in the Indianapolis area. Yes, It's basketball, but when i was in high school the MIC had Greg Oden, Mike Conley, Josh McRoberts, and Eric Gordon. George Hill and Jeff Teague were also in the area at the time, although in different confereces.
I would love to hear more too on how you coach pee wee football and can spot talent anywhere!
