for confirmation?
It is confirmed.
We need OL in this class, so if the coaches like him, I'm down with that.
Just got a text from Illinois OL Chris Bryant. He has a Michigan offer, no commit yet, but Michigan is very high on his list.
He's also buddies with a huge DE recruit in next years class Jordan Diamond.
This is good news
Jordan Diamond is being recruited as an OT.
what does an offer look like? how is it sent? to whom or what is it sent? how do we find out about it?
I think Forcier's website had scanned photos of what the offers look like.
Here's Tate's offer.
Interesting:
This award is contingent upon the satisfactory completion of your junior and senior years, both athletically and academically. NCAA minimum academic standards must be satisfied and institutional admission requirements must be met.
So Demar was forwarned about meeting not just NCAA standards, but "institutional admission requirements" as well ...
To let the "Demar Thing" go.
about it?
Well Tripp I usually find a street in the right part of town, I flash my brights and what I hope is a woman (always chek for an adam's apple) approaches the car and talks through the driver side window. Some jargon and nomenclature of terms is exchangbed and once a price is agreed upon we drive together to an agreed upon place to perform the acts of perversion and finally money is exchanged.
be sure to use lots of finger quotes and say "i'm just thinking out loud here."
those two things get you off the hook for doing or saying anything. ask my boss.
ps - i wish there was a keyboard stroke or emoticon for finger quotes.
"I'm just thinking out loud here"
I tweeted that Chris was offered yesterday. He told me that he isn't going to commit (yet), but MIchigan is really high on his list.
Bryant is teammates with 2012 OL Jordan Diamond, who is a big Michigan fan. I would expect both of them to pick Michigan. Chris just went out to Stanford recently, so we'll see how it plays out.
Anytime you see a guy wearing something that says "Michigan Football" in his picture on Scout, it's probably a good sign.
Bring in the OL! Seems like the needs are being addressed thus far. If he commits, how many more OL do we need?
Good stuff. We definitely need a solid coup of offensive linemen in this class. Let's hope a couple more drop soon (including Zettel?).
According to Scout, Zettel lost a lot of weight. He is reportedly under 240 lbs now. If that is true, it seems like he is preferring to play DE.
Seems like things stalled, and are now getting moving again. Hopefully a good sign!
[Edit:] You think Rich and staff were watching US World Cup action?
Whatever way you look at, a potential OL class of Bryant, Miller, Posada, Fisher and hopefully Zettel would be very, very good. That's a center, two guards (If Z stays on offense) and two tackles. I know OL are hard to judge, but that's a very solid group of guys.
Aside from Zettel, that's a pretty underwhelming crew for the University of Michigan.
And not only that, but let's wait until they commit as well. So far, two OL commits do not a good class make.
Jordan Diamond supposed to be?
