Welcome to the family class of '10
I just wanted to start this post to welcome our new recruits and our current team that we are proud of you and can't wait for the new season.
For Mr. Parker and Mr. Dorsey you have your choice of any school in D1 but what Kiff and Jimbo can't offer you is Michigan. Check our Blogs and our posts, and you will see how much our fan base wants to win again. You will not see that in Florida and in So Cal because they have not dealt with losing in some time.
I'm sure Lane and Jimbo are promising you that you will be the next Ronnie Lott or Deion Sanders but how about becoming the first great safety at the University of Michigan? If you want to go to the NFL well of course they will say USC or Florida or Florida State but people forget Michigan gets people into the pros as well and they become All Pros like Brady and Hutch and Cwood. Michigan is for the best and the brightest not for the good but great.
Just remember you get to play in the biggest stadium, play in THE GAME and play for winngest program in college football. Those are things USC and FSU and Florida can't offer. And if you join the team that turned Michigan into the best again you will become a legend.
Go Blue!

If not, you can always tell them that they will be receiving a degree from the University of Michigan.

By an impartial survey of M alums :) Seriously, is there a better fight song out there? Not even Notre Dame, IMO. Hail hail to Michigan.

My heart still longs for Brennan Clay.

Giff, let's rework this a bit so the strongest arguments (U of M as an institution and early playing time) come up front. And let's either bury or cut the "yeah, but we want to win more" argument. Sure, all of this is somewhat subjective, but that's most easily open to attack.
Other than that, I like your style.

One caveat to recruits from the greatest American mind of our time (substitute Recruits for Bart):
Homer Simpson: Bart! Remember what Vince Lombardi said: "If you lose, you're out of the family!"
Only joking. Welcome 2010 recruits...we will back you 110%! You are going to lead Michigan football back to the promised land.
