Looks like the earlier board rumor mongering was on to something with Jones, I wonder what the situation with Pace is?
Pace had a pretty bad knee or back injury, career threatening, IIRC.
I wouldnt look that far into it, this is CSTV Michigan football guide we dont have a affilation with them.
delete..
Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Arghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! ooooooooooooo sparkling unicorn.....
You don't need it. Pace was probably two years away from being a starter, and Jones was viewed as being a decent contributor this year, but not critical. Our linebacker haul from 2012 lessens the sting from this, but now we have a hole to fill at center. I'd like for the future of one of the most important positions on the team to not be resting on the shoulders of a meh 3-star recruit (Jack Miller).
There are not many 5 stars centers you know? I'm not worried about our players there, I'd like to have more depth, but I've read somewhere that Caleb Stacy is projected by scouts to play Guard or Center, so he could fill that void, even if he's a "meh" 3 star
Seems like i remember reading at some point, probably on here, that most centers are meh 3-stars. The recruiting sites don't like to give them big rankings, least glamorous position on the line.
and a 3*
I see what you're saying about rankings, but Miller wasn't really highly sought after either, and he was listed as a DE. The way that recruiting sites underrate the importance of centers is baffling though.
about Jack Miller. Tim loved him and thought he was "criminally underrated." As we know from the Jeremy Clark Hello post, Tim doesn't bias toward the optimistic.
Miller went up against 4* OSU recruit Kenny Hayes in the Ohio playoffs, and was understood to have won that battle. Rivals had the story ($) http://michigan.rivals.com/barrier_noentry.asp?ReturnTo=&sid=&script=co…
Offers from Harbaugh at Stanford, North Carolina, Pitt, Louisville, West Virginia, and MSU. Not bad.
Scout had him as the #16 center in the country.
Finally, I've heard interviews on the radio and read them in the paper - sounds very mature for his age, sounds like a leader.
more than onces does not delete them!!! LOL
...why would you want to delete them?
I was hoping there was no truth to the rumors in Kellen Jones. I was excited to see this kid get on campus. I guess we will have to wait for official word to see how this situation plays out.
What is the situation? Academics?
Well, Kellen is headlining the MGoBlog currently. Does this means that MGoBlog has the same power to jinx as SI or Madden? Eerie, I tell you . . . . /s
Really wanted to see Jones, hope it can be fixed.
Everything on the internet is true.
Except for the fact that Craig James Killed Five Hookers, because he didn't.
I heard it was only 4 hookers but a 5th died later from "mysterious causes".
Again with the rumors that Craig James killed five hookers. When will people stop suggesting that Craig James killed five hookers?
WHEN WILL THE FIVE HOOKERS IN QUESTION STEP FORTH AND PROVE THAT THE NOW WIDESPREAD NOTION IDENTIFIED BY SOME AS FACT THAT CRAIG JAMES KILLED FIVE HOOKERS IS, IN FACT, NOT WHAT WE CONSIDER TO BE A TRUE STATEMENT?
It cannot be stated enough that five is not the number of hookers that Craig James is conclusively known to have killed.
Mouse jumped and inadvertently hit the moderate button on mmiicchhiiggaann's comment. My fail.
That just means you gave him a generic +1. You might have messed up, but it was a good thing (at least for him).
This would actually help justify why we Hoke said he wanted to take 25-26 recruits this year and why we loaded up on linebacker.
I think we expected to take 3 lbs. Ross came in late and mattison took him.
<br>
so what are the rumors? That he didn't qualify academically?
I hope they are just that, rumors, because I'm pretty pumped to see him hit the field. He sounds like a beast.
OMG SHIRTLESS!
But with a shirt on...
shirt on....or just a super fabulous shirt tattoo?!!! (and a questionable amount of devotion to his high school)
Neg away, but I'm a little irritated to see Stonum's name in there.
Done and done.
and done again.
I'm hoping he makes it back to the team, but he needs some tough love. He has to earn it, and in a way that sets a tone for his life after football. There are more important issues to consider than what we selfish fans want.
I negged you. For being a turd.
i still dont know what the rumor is about jones. lol, hopefully all is well. I doubt it was academics he had 3.4 and offers from NW and stanford.
If you had actually read the thread, you would know champ.
Which thread hoss? This one doesn't spell it out chief. You referencing the deleted thread that nobody can reference anymore pal? Just curious what you're getting at bud....
I feel like I am the only that doesnt know the rumor unless Im missing something.
Ah I see it now, sorry couldn't see the one post from my phone. Not Good.
unless the rumor is that Kellen Jones killed 5 hookers?
If you read this thread you can figure out what happened with a little inference.
It's your friend. Now granted, you do have to infer from what's written but it's there pal.
Edit: my reply is out of order now, this isn't directed at dothepose.
I hope everybody gets in, that being said we should be/are expecting attrition
This was posted on the "Michigan Football Recruiting HQ" page on facebook. Thomas Gordon commented on it, pretty much confirming it.
