Michigan is looking good but Maryland could be tough if they are able to land a bunch of other Maryland recruits. They also mention that he was arguably the best player regardless of decision at the Opening Regional in DC.

DeMatha, Good Counsel, and (recently) Bullis are all strong prep schools that put out D1 prospects every year in MD. Nice to start a pipeline there.

 

EDIT: They are all very strong academic schools too. I knew kids from each who went on to Ivy's.

Let the real manball ensue! I'll take a clone of him for the other guard spot too please! Come on Mr. Davis, come on down!

Very true. CSB alert: I worked a USA Football U-19 event right after signing day. Grant Newsome played and his mom came by our booth so I started chatting her up. She said they all loved Hoke (as a person) but they loved UM so he was going regardless of the new coach. She mentioned he had a brother at a HS in New Jersey that Harbaugh had already reached out to (I didn't ask his name). Also talked to a Miami (YTM) recruit's mom who were from PA and she said they all absolutely hated James Franklin on their visit. She was an alum of PSU and said she loved the school obviously, but she said he was such an arrogant prick that she didn't want him to play for Franklin (he also has a brother that plays at Northwestern). It was actually pretty cool to talk to all the parents of these kids and see hear it straight from their mouths. Mom definitely has some influence.

Michigan is recruiting him for interior offensive line. He could play DT at some places, but that's not where Michigan wants him. And Michael Jordan is an offensive lineman all the way. AFAIK, there has been no talk of him playing defense.

Hoke's first or second class was a monster OL class (ranked #1 OL class in nation if i recall correctly).

This could be fairly close to that.  Based off 247 composite alone, Mich could land the #4 OG, #6 OG, #14 OT and #18 OT.

This is not including Bradenson from Wisconsin.  Im not sure how we are looking for him.
