For those that don't tweet I will share a link to the picture I was sent from the BBQ of all the commitments together, including Wormley. Before you ask, far left is Bo Dever walk on receiver.
(If this picture gets posted anywhere else without the link to TwitPic it needs to be removed. This was sent to me personally and not intended to be used anywhere else.)
No Biggs, Cass Tech or FHH

I was curious
as to who the ginger was, but then Tom settled it.

be careful. many people are sensitive to making jokes here. very serious discussion of high school kids going on.
Braden
is huge, you can see the weight he has put on.

He doesn't look fat either,
He doesn't look fat either, he's just a massive human being.

yeah, not fat at all
he looks fit, 6'7 320. Our depth at OT is going to be awesome.

True
I think it's a little difficult to tell how big he and the rest of the guys are in the picture simply because most of them are linemen. If anything Morris just looks tiny. Braden is a huge dude, though.
I can only continue to reference the fact that I live in an onion factory.
Yeah Morris looks tiny, but I
Yeah Morris looks tiny, but I find it hard to hold that against him when he's standing next to Strobel and Wormley, both of which are a legit 6'5. Having stood next to Ben Braden in June, he is literally 6'7 with no exageration, and it's not out of the question that he's 6'8. Just look at his calves, they're massive!

Braden does look huge,
but 6'7" might be stretching his height. I know some list him there, but he doesn't look 2" taller than Wormley or Kalis (though he looks bulkier than Kalis, yikes!)
"that's why you don't go to Ohio State, Lawrence"
FWIW, 6'7" is what the

This was the first thing I
This was the first thing I noticed too. This kid just screams "Mongo" for a nickname to me.
I was just about comment on
I was just about to comment on that. He's a tank. It doesn't look like any bad weight, he looks solid...and huge.
Wormley also looks like a stud.
Braden is a monster
Wormley's no small dude and Braden makes him look like a dweeb.
Now if we could just get

Disappointed there's no Pipkins in there
For that matter, where are the Cass Tech kids and Ross?

Someone at the BBQ sent me a text that said Coach Hoke gave an emotional speech after watching a highlight video from the past and present. It got the kids and families all fired up apparently.

just curious
was there a Josh Groban song involved???

Is such a comment permissable?

We're gonna play with toughness, we're gonna be responsible and we're gonna play with toughness. This is Michigan.

new video boards?
Wonder if they found a way to fire up the new video scoreboard and show it there? Thanks TVH. . . .
GO BLUE!
All In Worldwide
Speech
I wish I could've seen that speech. Coach Hoke already has a great presence and that voice is awesome, he sounds like a 90 year old man haha. I'm not surprised he's doing so well already. Hopefully we will see a polished product on the field this fall. Let's Go Blue!!!
Remember Who You Are!
I think Odoms or Vince Smith should be in the picture
to really show how big these guys are......for some reason, they all look kinda small w/o a reference point...
..until you realize that
..until you realize that Dever is 6'2 and 195 lb.
Your reference point: Gant
Your reference point: Gant kneeling is the same height as Vincent Smith standing.
Photoshopped so soon
They look far to clean for it to have been a BBQ ... I dont know anyone especially a 300lb + guy who can eat some good BBQ and not get any on their clothing ...Kalis looks to have been the only 1 who ate atleast he looks full

So does this mean no moar commits?
This might be arrogant, and if it is, it is, but we're Michigan
I hope
That Wormley doesn't end up being the only commitment from today.
Braden is cary big...
Braden is cary big...
He looks a little
He looks a little scary as well

Kalis and Braden

Also, shane morris looks studly
bow bow
Cant believe how big Braden
Cant believe how big Braden is he makes everyone else look like hobbits, even Kalis

What a great group of kids coming to UM,
What a great group of kids coming to UM, would of liked to see more pics from the BBQ. Possibly the speech Hoke gave, or the highlight video. Any chance of either one getting out?

I like it the look of things
those are some big mother f#ckers for high school kids. Look out Big Ten the beast is coming for you.
Since when
do we get ginger WR's like that? his soulless stare makes me nervous.
For those that are both
For those that are both ignorant and incapable of reading, at the top of the page TomVH explains that it is Bo Devers, a walk on WR.
To be fair,
he didn't ask who that was.

That is what you took away
That is what you took away from that post? To be fair, it's a stupid statement. That is what you should have gathered from that post. Not, "He really didn't ask who that was."
Since when did we get stupid
Since when did we get stupid motherfuckers like you posting? Your ignorant ass words make me very suspicious of the human race.
