Sam Webb was heavily hinting that JBB was very close to a decision this morning on WTKA.  Can only put us even more in the driver's seat for Peppers.

But I wouldn't necessarily read the situation that way.  I think in general moving up the decision means good things for Michigan, but previous indications were that he might decide before even going out to Palo Alto.

By all accounts it's a great place, and if they were #1 at one point, it's just as likely that he loves his Stanford visit as much as Michigan.  I'm going to increment back to 50-50.

Here's Juwann Bushell-Beatty's Hudl.com page - (HERE)

That site lists him at 6'6" and 315 lbs., so we're not just grading roads - these are freeways we intend to build through defensive lines in the future. I like that approach.

Welcome to Michigan!

Not that it matters much, but I wonder how much of an impact the B10 expansion has on these NJ kids.  They'll be on TV every week and play at least 2 games @ Rutgers while they're wearing a Michigan jersey.  Does M pull JBB and have such high interest from Peppers without the B10 expansion?  Maybe, probably.  But did it push us over the edge?  Maybe.

As stupid as Rutgers and Maryland are, their states have a lot of good football players and now we can tell them (and kids from VA too) that we'll be playing three schools (RU, MD, PSU) from their region which means we'll always have one away game within driving distance from home. A lot different than if we were playing in the west division and we're playing out on the plains several times a year

We hear all the time about kids wanting to stay close to home (Southern kids rarely leave the South, for example). Last year, we got a lot of Midwestern kids, which is great, but ESPN actually has more "East" kids in the top 150 than the Midwest, and since our campus is only about 10 hours away at the most from any Eastern city, suddenly having three more schools we play being out that way starts to make us look a lot closer.

@TomVH: I just happened to be on the phone with Bushell-Beatty's coach when he committed. Talking about something else.



@rivalsmike: OL Juwan Bushell-Beatty to #Michigan is step one, Jabrill Peppers sooner than later is step two. Paramus double dip.



ALL GOOD NEWS!
