Possible Recruits to Finish the Class
I did a quick search to see if there were any players that RR might be looking at to finish off the class and add some depth to some positions of need.
I found Cornelius Carradine, a DE from OH, whom apparently visited on 1/16.

It looks like he is waiting for an offer from tOSU.
I also found Tyrone Dixon (FL DT) who has shown interest in going to some small schools in OH, but has no notable offers.

Finally, there was LaRoyal Beard (FL ILB) whose only listed offer and school of interest is Purdue. It would be sweet if we could snatch another one from Purdue at the last second.

I think that each of these would be nice pickups even if just for depth. Thoughts?

Tank Carradine has grade issues.
LaRoyal Beard should be accepted on name alone, obvs.
February 5th, 2009 at 9:35 AM ^
Tank didn't visit on 1/16.
February 5th, 2009 at 9:36 AM ^
they have not signed yet due to grades or character issues.

Maybe they'll give Nader a schollie? The two qb system has never been fair and equitable, and it's time to give Nader a chance.
February 5th, 2009 at 10:13 AM ^
Nope.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:38 AM ^
I know. I was trying to make a Ralph Nader joke. Not funny.

I am not ashamed to admit I totally missed that in the original post, but am now lol'ing.
February 5th, 2009 at 11:54 AM ^
Ditto.

Haven't heard much from him. Is he the one that's a sleeper but also a package deal with Gonzalez. I hear he lacks power and needs to get in the WR but Barwis should take care of that. I'd be stoked if we got him he looks great on film and he's been playing forever so he's got good experience. We need lottery tickets and he would be one more.

for you alabluema. well played
February 5th, 2009 at 10:16 AM ^
The Royal Beard. Nice.
February 5th, 2009 at 10:21 AM ^
Now, if we could only find a kid with the last name Clam.

I don't think either of the three are coming to M. I think our class is done even though we could use another DT. Rich Rod said we won't just pick up some other guy up just to fill spots but we want Michigan guys with a good attitude. Most of the people who hasn't picked a school yet has grade issues and why pick them up when they are bad students and won't be able to play half the year because of it.

for tyrone dixon, having 1 offer from alabama st as a 3* DT screams academic issues to me

Off-field issues. He's a neerdowell.
February 5th, 2009 at 12:25 PM ^
Not to mention he's a scalawag, a ruffian, and a tosspot.
February 5th, 2009 at 12:46 PM ^
Hooligan or rabble-rouser?

Save the scholarships for next year.
