This list has quite a few great looking prospects, although I might rearrange the importance of some.

is zettel wearing a bluetooth ear piece or a hearing aid? i hope it's a hearing aid. otherwise, he might be one of those guys that calls his girlfriend "babe" incessantly.

I'm pretty sure it's a mouth guard.  I would wear mine like that too when I was at camps where we didn't wear a helmet, or had drills where we didn't wear a helmet. 

Also, I would have liked to see AJ Jordan on the list, but I guess he's not at a position of major need and there were 2 WR's on there.  I really like that 5 of the 16 are OL's.

Them all...

Agreed though, maybe some rearranging. I do pretty much agree w/ the top 5. Personally I'd like to grab Watkins or Arnett right after that top 5. But other than that, I think mostly all of these kids are of some top priority.

Is the Sweet 16 a list of porspects that we have a legitimate chance landing?  It seems like most of those guys have expressed some interest at some point.  If that is the case that might be reason why Trey Depreist is not on that list.

We've offered 34 or 35 guys from Florida. They definitely have talent again this year. I think there are Florida kids who meet our needs.  But it's a heavily recruited state, so we're going to be in a dogfight for most of those Florida kids.  And unless we start winning, it's going to be harder and harder to convince kids to come to the cold weather.

Rodriguez has done a great job of recruiting Florida, and I don't think that will stop.  But even in 2010, we only got < 7% of the kids we offered in Florida.  Having four kids interested in Michigan is about where I'd expect that list to be.

I think I would poop my pants if we got all those guys!  I would definitely like to put Newberry on the list as the highest priority DE.  He looks like a freak!

I am simply amazed. When we start winning we are going to get the best of the best year in and year out. I can't believe what a tremendous job this staff is doing on the recruiting trail after our tough luck on the field. They can recruit as well as anybody.

Yea I was a little surprised about Jernigan myself. I was under the impression that we don't have much of a chance with him.  Same thing for Curtis Grant.
