Sam Webb has a "gut feeling" about ANOTHER recruit.
On WTKA this morning, Sam Webb said he had a "gut feeling" about NC DE/DT Darian Roseboro. While he's claimed that Roseboro has been trending blue for a while, I'm pretty sure this is the first time he busted out the big label.
You can hear for yourself on WTKA's podcasts. It's Segment 3 at around 5:40.
There's lots of time and nothing is set in stone. The coaches must, as always, recruit to the bell. But this bodes well.

he did, I forget what it was, some CL, but he's been training at the facility I used to work out at and from what I hear he's looking really good

Falcon had a torn ACL. He's still been good enough on the camp circuit to earn an offer from OSU, so he must be pretty fully recovered.

Don't be afraid of a little competition!

is a kicker

Roseboro would be a great get.

Along with Keisean Lucier-South.....
Would make for one hellll of a haul.

Sometime during the 2012 class, I thought "this is too good to last" but here we are 3 years later and it's still rolling strong. It's even more amazing considering our struggles last year and all the hot seat BS. It's pretty clear at this point the coaches really built an atmosphere here that's pretty special.
All things being equal the current haul is more impressive than 2012 because
(a) recent results on the field being meh for 2 years vs Sugar Bowl momentum
(b) don't have the shiny new coach momentum
(c) some major decommits, seemingly replaced by very like minded pieces
(d) I was told Curtis Blackwell will secure all talent in the state for MSU or at least 7 of the top 8, leaving us some scraps
Definitely not an issue of recruiting around these parts. Would like to see it begin to really translate on the field.

Wheatley please.
Would there be room for both Roseboro and Wheatley?

This will happen this year. We will far exceed expectations.
it generally means the recruit has given solid indications in private to Sam that he's committing to Michigan.
Roseboro is a huge get.
but Sam has had I think 2, maybe more incorrect "gut feelings" already recently.
Doesn't mean he wasn't told a commit is imminent, just means they're not guarantees.
The only one I can remember recently was Sean Parker (2010).
I agree with Miggle: Parker is the only actual "gut feeling" miss recently. Sam has been confident about other recruits who have gone elsewhere, but his "gut feelings" have essentially been guarantees.
I'm pretty sure he gave a "gut feeling" that Ty Isaac was going to Michigan (the first time, not this most recent time). I remember being super excited because I had just started following recruiting a little more closely and it was the first time I had actually heard a live broadcast with Sam. I guess it depends on your particular definition of "recent." However, he's a name that I trust and I hope it's in regards to Roseboro myself.
He also provided his "gut feeling" about Robinson's transfer yesterday, but by the time I listened to the podcast the news of the committment had already broken.
I wish Hoke was good at closing . . .
haven't heard a peep throughout his recruitment
And I have already started counting Roseboro as part of the class in my head
to other places before he announces his commitment?
