beat me to it, pretty excited to finally have another recruit. The good news just keeps on coming this week. I'm liking it.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:10 AM ^
Not gonna complain at all, obviously not a headliner like we were hoping but some descent offers in Iowa and Stanford. I like the size, i was getting tired of mini DB's maybe a safety in the future? And can't hurt that hes from OHIO.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:14 AM ^
Don't forget that offer from Youngstown State! In all seriousness, I'll take almost and DB outside of Dave Brandon at this point
January 20th, 2011 at 10:10 AM ^
More DBs? I know I don't know shit from shinola about recruiting, but sheesh. Aren't we going after like 3 others too? Is he building a solid army of DBs to take over the world?
January 20th, 2011 at 10:12 AM ^
They are the new slot ninjas.

From the Angry Michigan Secondary Hating god......Keep em coming, we can never have enough....
January 20th, 2011 at 10:14 AM ^
"Angry Michigan Secondary Hating god" is actually Lloyd Carr. Just look at his recruits from 2004-2006. The tales of our demise have been greatly exaggerated.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:14 AM ^
I don't think the team has alot of true safetys just hybrid types. And I know next year Michigan and Ohio are loaded with LB and DL talent.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:10 AM ^
Yoink!

I know we need DB's in this class, but how many is Hoke going to take. Brown is already on campus, and we should be getting Hollowell, Countess (hopefully), Taylor, and are bringing in McClure and Raven on a visit this weekend. I know some may be safeties, but that is a lot of players in one class for a few positions.
Either way, welcome to the class Tamani. Go Blue!!
January 20th, 2011 at 10:12 AM ^
for a 3 star! I guess we are all just excited for Hoke to get his first of hopefully many recruits in this class....
Go Blue!
January 20th, 2011 at 10:12 AM ^
BOOM HOKE'D!
January 20th, 2011 at 10:14 AM ^
Here's hoping that's not his last pick six in the Horseshoe.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:13 AM ^
He's half Amani, half Toomer. What a sweet name.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:15 AM ^
TOO MANY WR'S, NOT ENOUGH DB'S!
scratch that, reverse it
TOO MANY DB'S, NOT ENOUGH WR'S!
This is good news. I hope we have a dozen DB's all competing to be the next Woodson.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:15 AM ^
I love how people complain when we have 10 commits right now -- let Hoke do his thing. DB depth is never a bad thing -- and we need some, especially at safety.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:16 AM ^
Al Borges said we have "receivers galore" and the running backs look solid. Since the defensive backfield was one of our weakest links, perhaps the coaches are making up for lost time.
In any event, welcome Tamani. You will forever be known as Brady Hoke's first committed player. Congratulations.
January 20th, 2011 at 10:16 AM ^
Why do people complain about how many defensive backs we're recruiting/taking in this class? Didn't people watch our pass defense last year? We clearly need all the bodies we can get in hopes that one or more of them develop into the kind of player we need to be successful. Not that Christian, Talbott, etc can't be those players; but depth is a major issue here
