No commitments this weekend? Hey Hoke, WTF?

Just kidding, obviously.

It's a slow night, but to keep this from being pointless, I thought I'd throw down a couple of under-discussed reasons to be excited about Michigan football.

1. As strong as the defensive recruiting has been under Mattison, the guy's skills clearly extend way beyond recruiting. The Baltimore f(rea)king Ravens had him as their DC even though recruitment is a trivial part of an NFL DC's job. There must be some serious coaching and/or motivational skill there.

2. We've talked about quickly filling the 2012 class as beneficial in that it lets us get started on 2013, but it also lets the coaching staff focus its undivided attention on preparing for the coming season. I have a feeling that's a big deal for a new staff.

Anyone else want to share some good feelings before Monday strikes?

We already have three how many do you want?  So want the staff to only recruit one side of the ball.  Your numbers would leave us at or near 20 for commits (depending on what some means) with no room for anything on the offensive side of the ball.  We need a minimum of 2 more OL, at least one WR, and probably a true "pro style" QB.

Its your Karma level, its at 0 for some reason, and when a post has a 0 level it is hidden. Click on your accont and you'll see it, For instance, my Karma is at 2, so when I post it starts with a 2.

Is further evidence that people just can't handle all the information available on the internets. The funniest thing about all this available info are the Scouties who all try to act like insiders with their "What I'm hearing..."

They regurgitate what they read here, there and everywhere and make it seem like they've got some connected ear straight to the Michigan coaching staff. I mean, really, why are these guys paying members of Scout or Rivals when THEY have it all?

My best friend, who is an Oklahoma die hard, just gave me some interesting info. It seems that everyone on their Rivals premium boards, say the Oklahoma coaches have cooled on Gunner Keil. Not sure of the accuracy or validity of this but, with the recent rumors about Gunner committing to us this week, they would seem to be related.

to a handful of texts involving some names we all know.

It's going to be a very good week for Michigan football.
