I think thats them. This is great news (maybe), a CB and DT is what we need most.

Wowser. A DT and a CB. Please, now, step on up Messrs. Christian, Ifill and Grimes.

Do they have a cousin who can punt? Just as a plan B?

only on scout, there both rated as 3 stars on rivals if it makes you feel better. Offer lists are pretty equal if you believe what rivals currently has listed, which is always a better judge of athlete than stars IMO.

Totally. Just found it humorous that he was a freaking one star on Scout.

Pretty sure one star is Scout's code for "haven't bothered" much like ESPN will just say "40".

With the CB and DT being what they are depth wise I am excited to hear they are coming in. It is a good day to be a Michigan Wolverine.

Just got better if this is true. These guys provide depth at much needed positions. How many more DT's do you guys think we sign?

I have no reason to be this optimistic but I think we land Shariff Floyd. Him waiting til during or after the season will allow us to show him how improved we are and he will come here. Long shot I know, but I think it happens (again for no reason other than pure optimism)

Doubtful at the moment. I think Jon Hankins could get an offer down the road if he firms up his conditioning and doesn't commit anywhere.

about Floyd. I think the depth at DT and the positive upturn in wins this year will sway him.

Chances are he has not been ranked then yet, if it says one star and it says NR

the DT one (terry?) has good offers, seemingly better than a NR DT

wasn't upset with Evans and Helmuth leaving. The Talbott's now have room to commit and we still have room for all those DB recruits we're high on. Woo defense!

I wonder if the presence of CB Talbott (sorry, can't remember if it's Terry or Terrence) will make one of either Christian or Grimes superfluous. Regardless, if taking him helps us get a solid DT prospect, I'm happy, as the rest of our DT options seemed like longshots.

CB Depth is so bad that I wouldn't be surprised if we took 2 more corners. We'll keep pressing for Christian and Grimes.

I think this ends up being a 4 CB class. Cullen, Grimes and Ifill likely fill out the rest of the DB recruiting. Ifill and Cullen could end up being either CB or S, where Grimes is pure CB. That would make the class: Avery (CB) Talbott (CB) Grimes (CB) Cullen (CB/S) Ifill (S/CB) M-Rob (S/OLB) That would be a pretty solid backfield.

I don't think Terrence Talbott's commitment will have an effect on Michigan's recruitment of Grimes and Christian. Christian should be a safety (in my opinion), so even if we get all four cornerbacks - Avery, Talbott, Grimes, Christian - there's some flexibility there. Also, Ifill stated early on that Michigan was recruiting him as a safety. So Talbott's commitment probably has no effect on Ifill, either.

Cullen's the #1 guy on the board at DB, and he knows it. He's not gonna be scared away by any other commitments.

Terrence (CB) is now rated a 78 and a 3 star on ESPN. Terry (DT) is a 75. Interesting considering both scout and rivals have Terry rated as the better player...
