Exactly. Having a FB that can run like Davis can, it's just such an amazing tactical advantage.

Not to take away from Kerridge or Houma (easily some of my favorite players), but they clearly weren't utilized under Hoke and only started getting touches this year, and look how great Harbaugh is able to scheme them.

Now, when we get a FB that Harbaugh can start fresh with, it's gonna be unreal the tactical advantage Harbaugh's offenses are capable of. Tight ends, full backs, runnign backs, slot receivers, wildcats, etc.

I love Harbaugh so much!

I'm a bit confused as he's listed as a FB on 247, but also as a running back.

And there was some writing, somewhere, that was talking about Harbaugh talking to him about FB and beefing up.

Obviously, it's the internet here, so, you can't really trust anything you read/see, of course.

But with the class already having 3 RBs and then adding Kareem Walker, I was thinking that then it totally made sense to have Davis actually be at full-back.

Also his frame is ENORMOUS, 247 lists him at 6'1" 215lbs, but google pictures of him next to Harbaugh. If Harbaugh is truly 6'3" then Davis is at LEAST that, if not taller, and he's got a barrel for a torso. Harbaugh is tipping his head down in the picture, but it's still not even close.

Seems more like a FB, to me at least, I could be wrong though, wouldn't be the first time!

an edit with him in a UM uniform with Ice around him and Savage or something, Nauta tweeted this out, and then Jay sent the tweet about football being a Savage game.  Nauta starting to look good for UM, per just about anyone paying attention, but still in a battle with Georgia.

Alabama has the best facilities in the country. The poster said unless they knock it out of the park on his visit. I was simply stating they will because they have the best players lounge, the best locker-room, the best fitness facility, and one of the best stadiums in the country.

To think that Alabama is not going to "knock it out of the park" on his visit is a little absurd. I've read/listened to around 1,000 recruiting interviews and have never heard anyone say, "Ah, the Alabama visit was really average - average at best." It's always, "Wow, Alabama was GREAT. REALLY GREAT."

That's not to say Kareem is not coming to Michigan. But I can assure you that Alabama will knock it out of the park on his visit there.

Maybe it's just me, but while I'm glad to see he finally saw through all the shiny bullshit Urban dumps on kids I'm not excited about seeing him play wearing a winged helmet until he actually does.

I'm not about to get pissed or hyped on the whims of a 17 year old kid.  Not again.

But i clicked the twitter link. It's just disgusting watching adults throw barbs over a high schoolers twitter account. I lasted about 20 seconds before closing the window out of horror.

My Social Media Rules:

1) don't tweet at recruits

2) NEVER read the comments

 

I'll admit I sometimes unintentionially violate rule #2 if I reply to a tweet and see some troll comment from "@_psycho_buckeye" or "@SpArTaNsWiLl2434".  And then I find myself angry with the passion of a thousand suns.
