Let's guess who will commit in June then.

Wayne Morgan for sure.

Jordan Diamond looks like he will commit soon probably in June.

And perhaps Burbridge? These are my 3 guesses.

I feel positive things about Magnuson following TomVH's "I disagree" to Irish's assertion that ND is in a good position with him in the Shane Callahan thread.  Also, there were those rumors that Strobel was a silent commit (the second of the two that we allegedly currently have, though the second hasn't really been discussed, or even confirmed, that I know of) that I haven't really heard anything about since.  But should either of those trees bear fruit in addition to Morgan, I will be a happy man.

Denard has spent the offseason working really hard and smiling at people.

At some point -- and it will take some time to really tell for sure -- it would be interesting to see Tom compare the effects of "NCAA uncertainty" on Michigan 2009-10 and OSU 2011-12.  I can't imagine that there's any easy way to quantify it; it would take someone with the comprehensive and generalized knowledge of Tom to even approach it.

Wait, does this mean our class will be even closer to being filled  - in June?!?

Won't someone think of the January deciders?

They have something like 22 commits, 11 of which are in the espnu 150. If we had 16 guys before the season starts with ~10 watch listers/4 stars or above thats not a bad problem to have.

Early commits are the wave of the future today--like Netflix streaming video. Teams like A&M, Texas, Alabama and Florida State have been working harder to lock up kids earlier. This allows you to get on to recruiting the next years class early. You can also then monitor academic progress and weight and stay your kids if it's a problem. You may miss out on late risers but, by the same token, you're not stuck with kids who fall to you because other programs have dropped them due to academic and disciplinary reasons (I'm looking at you Demar Dorsey).

so long as the SEC can oversign this point really is moot.  "commit early all you want to the B1G ten schools, we dont care!  we always have room for another at alabama."
