While I do think this Michigan is in good shape with these guys those tweets are meaningless. What else is he going to say? Seems kind of like what Brian was talking about yesterday. Its not good content its just bs asking for clicks

Yeah we'll see. Jabrill also said he was bringing Da'Shawn Hand and Leonard Fournette.

Not a knock on Jabrill or Ahmir at all, but it's like, what else are they supposed to say? "Fuck no, those guys would never come?"

I'll believe it when they sign their LOI.

As others have said, he was kind of put in a position where he couldn't say much else.   But beyond that, realistically how much does Ahmir really know about these guys?  I know some recruits are realy close.  But, we've seen other recruits that make commitments and their parents were not even aware of where the kids mind is at.   Even if these 3 told Ahmir they were interested in Michigan, can they really be taken at face value, and does "interest" correlate to a signed LOI months from now?

Call me optimistic, but skeptical.

Dantonio only succeeded Bc of rich rod. He recruited players that would have went to Michigan. Rich rod didn't recruit Midwest players. Brady Hoke came in, recruited Midwest players ( that probably would have went to msu if rich rod was still our coach) thus resulting in a defensive decline for state. You catch my drift

Have you been watching Michigan this year? We have a real coaching staff so these recruiting rankings will start to matter again.

And by again I mean pretty much now. We're a solid QB away from being in line for a playoff spot right now.

This is my first time posting but been a member a long time... Now To be fair when it comes to the sec they do what ever it takes to get a kid to come to their school Been a mich fan all my life and I have lived in Baton Rouge now for 10 years and I can tell you that rumors around here was that fournette was seriously about to give mich a real chance but the night before he was suppose to go to the airport his dad get a visit from a LSU booster and the kid never takes the visit same thing when it comes to bama they make sure that what every these kid parents and families want they get and the NCAA turns a blind eye to it.. Now I think what make it great it mich doesn't have to do that to get kids the degree speaks for it's self the prestige of the program speaks for it's self but u guys have to realize there are just some kids no matter who the coach is and no matter how hard we recruit them they won't come and the major reason for that is because these other school boosters do what they fill is necessary in order to get them... Not praising or saying it's right just telling what I know living in the heart or sec country...
