Did you think his profile just appeared out of nowhere and that the people at Scout had no idea how it got there? Of course they had to learn about him at some point, or else he wouldn't have a profile on their website. Look...he didn't have a profile on Scout until last weekend. Now he does, and Scout immediately gave him a ranking of 3 stars without having seen game film, seen him in person, nothing. They looked at his highlight tape, measurables, and offers and slapped a 3-star rating on him. But never mind...if the words of the guy who actually works at Scout don't sway you, you're not going to be swayed. EDIT: This response was intended for mejunglechop. Not sure what happened there.

Again I can't read what Trieu said. I got the impression reading what you wrote that Trieu said that Scout hadn't been familiar with Ryan prior to his visit, but subsequently got familiar enough with him that they could give a rating. I didn't interpret what you said to mean Trieu said the rating itself was given out of ignorance. If that's the case I withdraw.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Talbots Decommit now. Terry may feel it's getting a little crowded. I'll take that trade off though. I still have hope for D.Dorsey. And Jake Ryan is a player. That was a great get for RR

I am really hung over and was basking in the glory of this great news. Then I see this post and start laughing so hard that my head now hurts twice as bad. The bad thing is this post was worth it, I applaud you.

If there's a way to keep both Talbots, I certainly wouldn't say no to the depth; to me it's the most pressing concern on the defensive side of the ball. If they left for other options, I'd consider someone like Parker a win-win for Michigan.

As a Michigan and Detroit sports fan yesterday was just down down down. The Mbasketball team got their asses kicked,The Mhockey team underperformed on a back to back yet again! The Wings lost to a crappy team(kINGS) with a evil lying General Manager(LOMBARDI), And the Pistons lost yet again. But as soon as I open the MGoBlog front page I noticed as headline "Hello: Jibreel Black" Wow just that one headline has made me forget all about that horrible yesterday and put a huge smile on my face.
