Are we not recruiting him or did he just eliminate us? I hate to see us not taking all the Cass Tech kids we want and most of all hate to see MSU and Ohio getting any traction at CT. I know we have limited scholarships and are not taking interior D- line but I'm surprised this kid is not being talked about. Seems like a pretty athletic kid at 6'5" 300. Heck make a guard out of him. http://highschoolsports.mlive.com/news/article/-4619032713034810132/jos…

What should I title my threads?

Please make your thread titles as informative as possible: "Justin Feagin" is bad. "Justin Feagin leaving the team?" is good.

My feet felt light for the first time in months It was like you came walking across the room Straight at me and then straight through me And then stopped and stood still for awhile I knew then that i'd been lonely for quite some time And as we started to dance you gently took off my tear soaked coat And let it fall heavy to the floor and then We danced some more When all is said and done When all is gone and still just begun I will be asked what i did with my time and why Can you be my alibi Cause i know i spent it dancing with you I have been here before These emotions are relived It's like a joy deja vu You have been walking along With me for quite some time But me with my deaf ear and blind sides Both of these i turned against you We all know that you're there We all know When all is said and done When all is gone and still just begun I will be asked what i did with my time and why Can you be my alibi Cause i know i spent it dancing with you Said and done Now all is gone and still just begun What have i done with my time and why You are my alibi Cause i know I know im dancing with you

Maybe we don't like him as much as other recruits?

You can't take every kid from your big schools in fear that it costs you other kids.  OSU doesn't offer every kid that comes out of their feeder schools.  I doubt what school a kid goes to plays much of a role at all in how hard our coaches recruit them.

You don't just take a kid because he goes to a feeder school. He's not ranked highly and he's not very sought after from big name schools. I'd rather go after Roseboro and Lucier South.

another after the 2014 season is over.  That being said,  I support the team and go to every game.  Not a fair weather fan that picks and chooses when I support the team.  Criticism is productive but with a limited class this year ... we will land the real "Michigan" players & students.

Don't pay attention to some of these guys. This board if full of pricks.

I also wondered why we weren't recruiting this kid. But i can't say it comes as a surprise given that we have just passed on highly touted Jashon Cornell. For the life of me I'll never understand that decision. Keep in mind Cornell was the top recruit in the country just a year ago. He's slipped a bit since then but gee wiz you don't turn away 5 star recruits. Plus it's not like our DLine is all that great. I can remember our DLine getting pushed around not so long ago...

he is nowhere in the discussion for UofM and wondered why. The kid has a very impressive offer list. My guess is we quit recruiting him based on limited space.

Personally, I don't think he's a defensive end at the next level. He's a defensive tackle or an offensive lineman. Obviously, the coaches aren't really pushing for defensive tackles. As far as offensive line goes, he does not seem to be very interested in playing there and prefers defense. So I don't really think he's a great fit for Michigan since a) he doesn't play a defensive position they want and b) he might be standoff-ish about playing OL.

Josh Alabi sounds like a fake name you'd give to a chick in another city so she can't track you down on facebook.

I have nothing more to add. Just that.

Oh, and read a book, children.
