Saturday Swim Lanes
Thought it would be relatively quiet until Monday but this is Harbaugh's Michigan fergodsakes.
Just a quickie today.
Changes:
- Hamilton out (damnit)
- Nate Johnson back to firmly in
- Viramontes projected to be the silent commit
- Mathis was barely in this table anymore but Ole Miss visit seemed to solidfy him there
- Lorenz just CB'd Stewart to Stanford so I am going with that and calling him out for now
- Pie got both Lorenz and Wiltfong to Louisville today so I already had him off the board but this seals it.
So down to 25 spots taken from 26 yesterday. With 31 total projected which is inclusive of 1 grayshirt.
Going to remove 1 more for Dytarious Johnson (academics). Brad Hawkins sounds like will sign on NSD and then work more on his academics so keeping him in class. This drops us down to 24 commitments.
Projected final guys:
Yes | ||
25 | Rashan Gary | |
26 | Victor Viramontes | UM |
27 | Lavert Hill | UM |
28 | Quinn Nordin | USC / UM |
29 | ||
30 | ||
31 |
This leaves 3 spots - if we get the 3 guys from the Pacific Time Zone we done. If you believe in video game recruiting 1 of those spots goes to Fuller; if you believe crystal ballz not so much.
Trusted Agents? | ||
1 | Connor Murphy | Left Coast v UM |
2 | Devin Asiasi | Left Coast v UM |
3 | Boss Tagaloa | Left Coast v UM |
4 | Isaiah Simmons | Clem / Neb / UM |
5 | Jordan Fuller | OSU |
6 | Will Fries | PSU |

Thanks for the update. Only four more days of this insanity.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:50 PM ^
Only 5 days until people start flipping out about the class of '17
January 30th, 2016 at 6:30 PM ^
Hopefully it's exclusively McDoom-type flipping and not Hamilton-type flipping *shudder*.
January 30th, 2016 at 6:28 PM ^
Must get DPJ! Just getting some practice in.

And I'm getting my practice in:
DP-J ain't happening, too much buckeye in him for whatever reason.
Only one of us can be pleasantly surprised....
January 30th, 2016 at 5:24 PM ^
Will Fries avoid PSU?
January 30th, 2016 at 6:19 PM ^
Is he a tackle or guard? I would bet Harbaugh is trying flip a tackle that we may not have recruited very hard once we had Devery.
January 30th, 2016 at 6:26 PM ^
tackle
January 30th, 2016 at 6:30 PM ^
Step 1. Highlight Will Fries in message above you with mouse
Step 2. Right click, "Search Google for 'Will Fries'"
Step 3. Profit.
(also will work on any such queries in future!)
January 30th, 2016 at 8:21 PM ^
I'll show myself out.
January 30th, 2016 at 9:03 PM ^
Don't go to msu!
January 30th, 2016 at 10:58 PM ^
holy cow I never knew you could do that. for real
January 30th, 2016 at 6:35 PM ^
not if we grad transfer a few next season
January 30th, 2016 at 5:26 PM ^
the silent commit. Makes more sense for Will Fries to flip, if we are looking for a surprise.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:29 PM ^
Do you flip fries or shake?
January 30th, 2016 at 5:41 PM ^
Can I get a McDoom w/ Fries?
January 30th, 2016 at 6:06 PM ^
Tru you can get one but your stomach will be dwumfour.
January 30th, 2016 at 7:48 PM ^
....would you also like a pie with that?
January 30th, 2016 at 9:53 PM ^
we should really be Rashan our weight
January 30th, 2016 at 5:30 PM ^
Doubtful Will Fries had any relationship with MaizeNBrew as of 24 hrs ago.
One note about Fries, MSU tried to flip him a few weeks ago as well and he stayed firm to PSU.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:32 PM ^
Of course Vic is a good player too.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:28 PM ^
Any truth to Murphy not being eligible academically? I thought I read this on the blog recently.

Lorenz posted the Inside Michigan Recruiting article today ($, and I don't have access) that apparently had some sad news regarding Murphy. I didn't get to read it, just read a comment on Twitter.
January 30th, 2016 at 6:06 PM ^
It's inevitable that we won't get everybody considering about 10 guys want in for 6 spots.
January 30th, 2016 at 6:36 PM ^
that sounds like he doesn't like the Midwest cold
January 30th, 2016 at 5:28 PM ^
3 OL this class. that is flrtin with disaster. could have used raulerson (sp) from texas big time.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:36 PM ^
Just gotta hope they all pan out (which is basically impossible) or hope there's a Graham Glasgow out there somewhere.

January 30th, 2016 at 5:38 PM ^
Read in a post last week he could not gain acceptance soon enough to Ross. Raulerson I am speaking of..
January 30th, 2016 at 5:41 PM ^
Yup, he wouldn't know soon enough so he went out west.

want to walk on? Not going to be pretty - with big Mike still uncertain.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:47 PM ^
I wouldn't be surprised if the staff is looking over possible OL they could flip at the last minute to replace Hamilton. It's not going to be another top-300 player, but there might be somebody committed to Purdue or Illinois or someplace who looks promising.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:50 PM ^
grad transfers, next recruiting class, and position switches will cover it. If not, Harbaugh will go out and block.
January 30th, 2016 at 6:13 PM ^
Need to a get a fourth OL in this class somehow. Hoping to land a grad transfer next year seems a pretty poor proposition, as there haven't been a ton of linemen with degrees shopping their wares. Five spots on the o-line means that anyone with the kind of talent we want already has a starting job. Raulerson seems to have been a rare exception, where he was riding the pine because he didn't see eye-to-eye with the Texas staff.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:53 PM ^
Funny I made that point in the Hamilton decommissioned thread and got negged...
January 30th, 2016 at 7:22 PM ^
There, I just negged you in this one too. Feel better?
January 30th, 2016 at 6:35 PM ^
I miss Terrance Davis
January 30th, 2016 at 5:32 PM ^
Not going to start a thread on it but looks like Kovacs, Gardner, Mike Martin and Jake MF Ryan will be part of the Signing Day event!

Is there even a Greg Little chance we land someone random and awesome who suprises us and jumps in one of these lanes. Maybe trouble possibly coming from current school of commitment? Or is it too late to make up ground? Eubanks coming out of nowhere gives me hope..
January 30th, 2016 at 5:38 PM ^
Surpises only come if the Price is right.
January 30th, 2016 at 7:10 PM ^
Ej price would be a nice surprise

IMO difficult to flip someone who has never been on campus who has been on many officials at top notch schools where he has been on campus and built those relationships. Last year we got Washington to do it but that was a low 3* whose offer list was sparse. If you are talking a top 200 type player - he would have had to vist UM at some point to flip.
Also we are just about to enter the period where you can only talk to recruits via phone or text or DM etc - no more face to face time, so difficult to see someone coming completely out of nowhere who has not been surfaced by now.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:55 PM ^
To be a smart ass but is face timing allowed now?
January 30th, 2016 at 6:36 PM ^
what about dickerson
January 30th, 2016 at 5:38 PM ^
I sure hope the dude that I talked to wasn't just blowing smoke. Getting Gary and Fuller would be huge for us now and the future of NJ recruiting.
January 30th, 2016 at 5:56 PM ^
I confirmed it with a guy on GTA 5
January 30th, 2016 at 6:00 PM ^
do you have a problem?
January 30th, 2016 at 6:16 PM ^
What exit?
