Michigan re-offers 2016 DT Rashan Gary from Paramus Catholic

Submitted by BlueCube on

There are many reasons this is interesting.

He's 6'4" 285 lb consensus 5 star.

He's the one of the (if not the) top player in the country in 2016.

He has family in Michigan.

He goes to Paramus Catholic which gave us Jabrill Peppers as well as Juwan Bushell-Beatty.

The coach for Jabrill and Juwan recently became a college coach and was replaced by Blake Costanzo.

Blake's picture in his playing days.

 

His coach was Jim Harbaugh.

I like our chances.

ago. I thought it could be huge for getting players here given the Jabrill factor also. I hadn't had time to post it. This was the perfect opportunity.

Thank you.

This is a "reoffer".  He was previously offered by Hoke (Manning). 

In addition, his former HC at PC is going to be an assistant coach at Rutgers.

Rivals guy said expect Michigan to hire someone for a full-time recruiting position. Sounds like Michigan is going to do what msu did with Curtis Blackwell.

It sounds like Roy Manning was offered that job, but turned it down to be a position coach at WSU.

Good heavens, I'm not going to embed that, but just for future reference, grab the embed code from Youtube (make sure the horizontal is sized to no more than like 450px, then in your comment dialogue box here, switch to plain text editor and paste the code.  Switch back rich text before saving if there's anything else you have left to say.

I donno if you are being sarcastic or not, nor am I attacking....But, I still have yet to see one source from saying his players dispised him.  Everything Ive read is MGMT and HArbaugh did not get along, not the players.  In fact I have read many things stating the very opposite...

dudes a beast.  would be a huge addition if he ends up at michigan.  legit top DL are rare and always necessary and michigan has not had any (aside from will campbell if he counts) at least a decade

Rashan Gary would be a huge get for Michigan! Not only as a talented player (which... clearly), but continuing to pull top talent out of Paramus and - on an even greater scale - mid-Atlantic areas. Pipeline building and continuity is a huge precursor to future success as long as you have a coach that can develop talent into execution (YAY we do have that this time!).

Gary is the type of elite defensive player Michigan needs to compete with Ohio and for the NC.  That and of course, great coaching.  I'm hoping too that the new staff plus Mattison can get Pipkins and Mone to a higher level of output this season.
