NLI update
According to 247, everyone has signed except:
Wilson (in Hawaii so no surprise there)
Johnson (not going to sign due to medical)
Garcia (I think this is due to the wrestling thing right)
Mazzcuah and Patterson. And those were the 2 that are rumored to maybe not being a part of this class. Something to keep a eye on.

Wilson seems like the only one they are waiting on. Garcia...not sure how that one will work but I don’t think he signs until tonight anyways.
December 18th, 2019 at 11:43 AM ^
IIRC Garcia sent in his LOI for wrestling a few weeks back
December 18th, 2019 at 11:43 AM ^
Blake Corum was on with Sam this morning and he made it sound like Mazzccua was signing.

All of Mazz’s teammates have signed but he still hasn’t.
December 18th, 2019 at 11:47 AM ^
The expectation is that Garcia will be on a wrestling scholarship until he plays football. Signing day for wrestling probably isn't today so will he be signing anything other than what walk-ons sign?
December 18th, 2019 at 11:29 AM ^
Mazzccua would be a loss here. Not the highest rating but was invited to UA All-America game and seemed to be on the rise. Was this an academic thing?
Garcia won't likely sign as I think they'll do whatever they can to keep him on wrestling's tab until such a time as his play demands time on the field.
No word yet on the QBs? Is the idea that we're waiting on the final NO from Stroud and then we'll sign Villari?
December 18th, 2019 at 11:42 AM ^
Yes, the rumors around Mazzccua have been academic in nature, and that he might need a prep year.
December 18th, 2019 at 11:30 AM ^
Am i the only one who likes Mazzccuah? I think he is pretty damn solid.
December 18th, 2019 at 11:33 AM ^
No 'h'
December 18th, 2019 at 11:35 AM ^
Thank you I wasn’t sure which Mazzccua we were talking about. There’s so many.
December 18th, 2019 at 11:43 AM ^
That's not the point, dipshit. The point is that if he's a Wolverine, which as of right now he seems to be, we should spell or learn to spell his name correctly. Just like every other player on the team.
Me saying no 'h' is 0% snark, it wasn't the spelling or grammar police, it was as concise as it could have possibly been. I didn't make fun of the guy. I didn't call him out. I simply corrected him so that he knows for next time - if you have a problem with that, I can't help you.
Hell, I had to double check myself before responding. It's a hard fucking name - now he knows, there is no h at the end of the kid's last name. Move along.
December 18th, 2019 at 11:44 AM ^
I can't believe a spelling error got you so upset.
December 18th, 2019 at 4:19 PM ^
Huh? It didn't...the response to my correction got me that mad. That's pretty clear.
December 18th, 2019 at 11:56 AM ^
Your post makes you seem like an unpleasant shet bag. See, I spelled it wrong but you still get the point.
December 18th, 2019 at 4:21 PM ^
As long as shet isn't the name of one of our players... I'm good.
Like I said...he spelled a player's name wrong. I corrected him for next time. That part was fine.
The chicken "shet" response by someone who wasn't even part of the original exchange is the problem.
December 18th, 2019 at 12:18 PM ^
Jeezh. Calmh downh. A littleh benth outh ofh shapeh arenth weh overh a littleh missingh hh?
December 18th, 2019 at 4:22 PM ^
Lol, you all can't comprehend for shit.
December 18th, 2019 at 12:24 PM ^
Lighten up, Francis.
December 18th, 2019 at 4:24 PM ^
Appropriate response. No sarcasm either...
At least you're referring to the reaction and not assuming I got mad over a misspelling. Props to you.
I'll move along now.
December 18th, 2019 at 7:47 PM ^
Great! I thought you’d never leaveh...
December 18th, 2019 at 11:46 AM ^
This is the first I've heard of any potential Mazzccua to not sign. Hes been committed since February and hails from the same school as three others we just signed. A three man oline class would be odd.
December 18th, 2019 at 12:00 PM ^
scholarship was pulled around september. Academics. He's not good enough to have bad grades right now, Jonah Monheim and a few other OL targets are still out there. Remember there's a couple months to wrangle up 1-2 other OL commits.
December 18th, 2019 at 12:01 PM ^
i don't think this is right. i don't think his scholarship was pulled. he just might not qualify.
December 18th, 2019 at 12:06 PM ^
No, it is. There is no ambiguity, he hasn't been a part of this class for months now. His scholarship was always contingent on a couple things, and he didn't meet all of them. Therefore, it was pulled. Parents and players were notified that he no longer had a scholarship offer.
December 18th, 2019 at 12:25 PM ^
Thanks for logging in and letting us know, Coach H
December 18th, 2019 at 1:31 PM ^
I was told by two different parents after they got off the phone with Jim harbaugh. Believe me or don't, he hasn't been a part of this class for quite awhile. It's not a recent development, and the coaches pulled his scholarship

So MARYLAND can get a 5* to flip over to them but we can’t get at least 1 5* player recruit? Wtf
December 18th, 2019 at 12:00 PM ^
Number of Maryland/DC 5 Star Recruits: 4
Number of Michigan 5 Star Recruits: 0
Sometimes, kids just want to stay close to home, play for the team they are a fan of. Michigan has zero cracks at 5 stars who want to stay home. There are only two five stars in the entire traditional B1G footprint (both going to OSU).
That's the fuck.
December 18th, 2019 at 11:52 AM ^
SDE out of Utah, Van Fillinger is committing and signing to day at 3:30 PM (12:30 Utah Time)
UTAH is the crystal ball favorite here, and seems to have all the recent picks. Would be another crack at a SDE who can fill out into a DT though, which would be nice.
December 18th, 2019 at 12:23 PM ^
what a great name. Like Mack Rackurtz, Mike Rotch or Phil McCracken.
December 18th, 2019 at 12:34 PM ^
I just looked and it seems like we have the 3 most recent balls from the last 2 days. Am I reading that wrong?
December 18th, 2019 at 12:42 PM ^
I think you're reading it wrong. From what I'm seeing the 3 CBs for Michigan are dated March 2019. Although I can't see the VIP CBs. It looks like Utah has the last 12 votes, all coming in since December 1st, 2019.
December 18th, 2019 at 1:31 PM ^
Yep, I am reading it wrong
December 18th, 2019 at 12:38 PM ^
Stroud to OSU, because of course.
December 18th, 2019 at 1:30 PM ^
I'm shocked and chagrined
December 18th, 2019 at 3:37 PM ^
I want us to get Villari. I love his highlight vid. Totally underrated, like Sainristil was.
