Roy Manning Has a Maize & Blue Thumb on Vine

Submitted by MGoShoe on

Roy Manning (@CoachRoyM) is clearly taking the social media aspect of recruiting to heart.

His first two Vines are quality.

Great hire; even better guy to have on board for this program. I do not think we should be concerned with recruiting whatsoever in light of Montgomery's departure. We good.

*Edit: More concerned than our normal, moderate level due to the complete disregard of recruiting by our "staff", namely of course; Hoke. But who didn't know that.

These vines & all of the interviews I've seen with him really make it seem like he feels like a kid in a candy store.  I'm happy for him (Lord knows I'd love to be in that role) & hope he succeeds.

Back when he was hired in March, there was a piece which included part of an interview with Elliott Mealer about how Manning always brought energy to Schembechler Hall. Manning has talked on a few occasions about how excited he is to be back here, and the Vines are an awesome extension of that passion. A great fit for Michigan, as others have said.

I don't want to say he is surpassing expectations, but it seems evident he is doing what he was meant to do. I think the kid in a candy shop metaphor hits it on the head.

Good to know that the UM coaching tree can gain some guys for the future. With that I hope that maybe RVB and later down the road Kovacs maybe take to coaching so perhaps we won't have a issues with coaching hires when we have many in the pipeline(along with Wheat and Hart).

 Here is my good friend Drew about to get it from Roy LOL! Drew claims this was a 20yrd pass. Looks like Coach Manning is about to get his man to me!
