There are rumors (which mods on another site have corroborated) that we have stopped recruiting Yuri Wright

He got beat like a drum all week at his All American game. Obviously I wasn't there to see it, but that's the rumor.



Apparently his body lends him to the safety position more than the CB position, and we want a corner.



Also, apparently the raging tire fire that is PSU might be scaring Reeves into our welcoming arms.



So bad week + tire fire = no more Yuri.



Hope it all works out for the kid though.

We should know more about Wright, Madaris, and maybe others after next weekend. I can't imagine that our coaches would ask them to visit so late in the process without committable offers. It'll be interesting to see who comes.

Also, anyone see them show Shane Morris during the basketball game? I mean a giant close up of just his head, obviously they knew who he was, but I don't think they could acknowledge he was going to UM because I"m pretty sure thats a violation of some sorts.

According to Tillman's twitter, it's Josh Kirshenbaum, a 2015(!) QB from Illinois. He was taking an unofficial and is friends with Logan. Here's some random profile of his: http://www.ncsasports.org/football-recruiting/il/normal/normal-community...

I really hope we can land Logan Tuley-Tillman. The kid is a really hard worker, and has a great attitude about himself. He really loves Michigan, but we are going to have to fend off Alabama in the end.

A surprise recuit to finish off the 2012 class would be really nice.  Garnett, Reeves, Grant and some high 4* or 5* surprise would be sweet.

Either way, I need to keep reminding myself what a great class we already have.  Since most of the commits came early, it's been a little slow the past few months.

I hear that.  I don't care what position he plays, I just want to land somebody with an awesome nickname.  Watching all these bowl games, I've been a little envious of teams with guys called "Black Mamba" and the "Honey Badger."  At least we've got Shoelace for one more year, so we can afford to sign someone on nickname alone, and coach him up during a redshirt season before unleashing him on the B1G.

I thought that the name Kirshenbaum was from the German for "Cherry Tree," and not a traditionally Jewish, Yiddish, or Hebrew name. Is there something I'm missing?

If Logan is 6'7" then the guy next to him has got to be at least 6'3", which would make him a decent sized QB, I mean no NBA QB like Mallett or Ostweiler.
