Top schools for Yuri Wright
Here is a Rivals article that puts out Yuri Wright's top six schools (Rutgers, Michigan, Georgia, Notre Dame, Cal and Michigan State) but he also says that Rutgers and Cal are his top two.

MSU? Are grades an issue? :)
Cal seems to be recruiting really well. Not sure what's up with that, but I guess the location is pretty awesome.

i thought he was a lifelong michigan fan. come to ann arbor, yuri.
August 23rd, 2011 at 3:45 PM ^
Maize & Blue is in his future....

Hoke will have his opportunity. Wright said Michigan is his dream school and will officially visit in the fall, but not sure when.

We need Ace to jump in on this thread and say something cryptic.

Whoops, I'm way late on this, but... I know nothing. Stay tuned?

he says he hasn't had much contact with the staff. Personally, I'm not too optimisitc about our chances...hopefully a visit changes that.

I think this article is grossly inaccurate. It says Stanford & Washington "have both visited Michigan." Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I'm fairly certain they haven't made it to campus yet. Is this correct? So therefore I'm not buying their Yuri Wright bit either.
August 23rd, 2011 at 4:39 PM ^
yeah they have never visited, hopefully tom will make espn get their shit together. the yuri bit is "wright" though.
August 23rd, 2011 at 4:46 PM ^
Yeah, the espn article, no rip on the OP. Well, I'm still optimistic about Yuri going blue in the end.

At this point, I fully trust that the coaches will get the Elite players that they want the most with their remaining scholarships. It's 6 of one half dozeon of the other with as many badass recruits as we're in on now.

WR is not filled and Je'ron Stokes is no longer a part of the team.

"Too soon" was my first thought. I am still grieving over the combined loss of TomVH, Tony PosadaVH, and Je'Ron StokesVH in the same day (well, official news of the TomVH loss straight from his MGoMouth). I thought I wouldn't be ready for a new recruiting guru call-to-action, Batmaneqsue symbol based on the famous TomVH version. But this is solid gold. I am now ready. I am currently in my office muttering under my breath in frantic, spasmatic grunts: "Where are you Ace? We need you!".

I think he is a backup plan for the bigger name teams on his list, sorry not counting MSU in that

The guy has given many different favorite groups over the past few months. He was saying schools like colorado were for sure going to get officials and now they are not in it. Supposedly the only two schools that he has mentioned consistintly during his recruitment are Michigan and Georgia. Wouldn't worry about something posted by the rutgers rivals people who have to put a good spin on things. Everything else ive seen on rivals and heard from Sam Webb says that he is very interested.

I'm surprised that Rutgers is back in the picture with him. Of the Big 4 at Bosco he's the one I thought they had the least chance with. It seems that RU's new uber-recruiter and DB coach is gaining some ground with him. Wright recently said that Hafley is a coach he'd love to play for. But we'll see. It's a long way to Jan/Feb when Wright will decide.
