Also Rich Rod is going to Tennessee. Per Ninja Football, whose best friend from the second grade is having an affair with Monte Kiffin. So he's in the know.

Jelani Jenkins, Taylor could come to Michigan and play NOW instead of waiting in line. What does Meyer tell these kids? That will 25 recruits, including three 5-star players, four of them in the last four days. Why does it feel like we're falling further behind and missing the boat?

game in the first year of the new regime. Losing games on the field is one thing, losing out on a chance at a recruit to a bunch of liars and cheaters is much harder to stomach.

This is disappointing. I feel a lot less confident that we'll pull any signing day miracles this year. I guess we're still in on Rashad Knight and the "mystery" lineman. Regardless, I like our class and hope to see them succeed.

It's crazy to think that a few weeks ago the big news was Meyer leaving and now that's a null issue and when all is said and done he will have the #1 recruiting class in the nation. I am insanely jealous...

anymore. College football is all about getting to the NFL and Florida, Bama and USC get more there than anybody else. Ever since the 'Horror' Michigan has been falling of the radar as a place to get to the NFL. We used to be a cradle of QBs and defensive players, now we're simplly 'rebuilding'. That's a tough sell against Florida's success and the lure of USC. I can only imagine the negative recruiting that these bastards are doing to steal recruits. It's very easy to create doubt in the mind of an impressionable 18-yr old.

What's the worst thing that can happen as a result of sanctions? Loss of scholarships, perhaps vacated wins. But I think some recruits won't care as much as you think. After all, they have coordinators in place (Chow, Monte) that developed a lot of players and put them in the NFL. If I were a prospect, that would be a big plus.

I wouldn't assume that USC is going to have a great class yet. They might very well because Kiffin is very good at recruiting, but a lot of players might still jump ship. If I thought I was getting a players' coach in Carroll and then found out I was getting a loose cannon in Kiffin, I would forget I ever heard of the letters "USC."
