TomVH: Desmond Morgan Commits
LB Desmond Morgan just committed to Michigan. He called the coaches about an hour ago and told them he's a wolverine.
There's nothing like the Big House. I had a great time on the visit, had some time to spend with the players and coaching staff more. The players and coaches are all great guys and good people. It was a tough decision, and I thought about it all day yesterday and today. I called Coach Rodriguez and told him if the opportunity is still there I'd like to join the family, and he said of course.
Morgan had an offer from Northwestern as well.

you son of a bitch...
December 13th, 2010 at 7:36 PM ^
to come to M as part of the Legends Division should be named Desmond... Suddenly I might forgive the Big Ten.
Of course, we trust he'll be a leader as well. Welcome!
December 13th, 2010 at 7:13 PM ^
We got our first commit as a member of the Big Ten's Western Division!

Great addition to this class, this kid is gonna be the real deal. The ultimate LB sleeper recruit, he reminds of the type of player that Iowa or Wisc always seem to find and develop into beasts. Welcome to the family Desmond!! Hopefully Avery Walls will shock us and commit tomorrow. Damn Oregon!!
December 13th, 2010 at 7:40 PM ^
i like linebackers! go blue!
December 13th, 2010 at 7:42 PM ^

December 13th, 2010 at 7:46 PM ^
Always great to see a "run stopper" commit, we'll all look forward to seeing you on Saturdays in the Big House.

Welcome young man! Go Blue beat miss st!
December 13th, 2010 at 7:58 PM ^
Hey, Mr. "one of the best educations in the world"...while I agree with you, learn the whole "i before e but not after c" thing.
December 13th, 2010 at 8:06 PM ^
'i suck again...'
December 13th, 2010 at 8:01 PM ^
1 - I'll bet he doesn't get "steered" to a major.
2 - I like smart football players. Fast minds free fast feet.
December 13th, 2010 at 8:28 PM ^
will up us from just our 8 all academic big ten players
December 13th, 2010 at 8:18 PM ^
Nice. This is a great pick up. This kid has huge upside and will be one of the gems in this recruiting class. Also, I must say this is nice to get some good news after the division names and logos debacle. I was going to drink heavily tonight because im sick of studying for finals and Jim Delany pissed me off, but now my excuse is Im snowed in and I am celebrating Michigan getting another solid linebacker...welcome aboard Desmond!
December 13th, 2010 at 8:38 PM ^
A much needed commit!
December 13th, 2010 at 8:48 PM ^
Rodriguez and told him if the opportunity is still there I'd like to join the family, and he said of course
Too bad this team has no family values anymore.
December 13th, 2010 at 9:20 PM ^
December 13th, 2010 at 9:29 PM ^
A white, 3 star linebacker!!!! It really has come to this hasn't it? hahahahaha
December 13th, 2010 at 10:17 PM ^
I'm watching Morgan's highlights and he's fast and knows how to hit fools hard. Plus he's a QB so maybe we could work in some trickery on special teams or something. Great news today.
December 13th, 2010 at 11:17 PM ^
December 13th, 2010 at 10:30 PM ^
Welcome Desmond!!
December 13th, 2010 at 10:59 PM ^
Welcome aboard Desmond. What you have done for the Panthers, may you do many times over for the Wolverines!
December 13th, 2010 at 11:04 PM ^
Welcome Desmond! Go Blue!!
December 13th, 2010 at 11:18 PM ^
his highlights look good, one year of beefing up and getting quicker he should help somewhere on the field..
December 14th, 2010 at 4:30 AM ^
Dude, 1hr after the commit is pretty impressive. Excellent work and thanks a bunch. Also, welcome home Des.
December 14th, 2010 at 5:36 AM ^
