5 days 8 hours ago	Well Mattison seems to	Well Mattison seems to suggest that if there are any subtleties it is that you put the more experienced guy in the middle.
5 days 10 hours ago	Does Morgan fit in the middle	Does Morgan fit in the middle better becuase of his still set? "Well, he was in the middle all the time.  I've had that question asked a number of times.  Is he a better MIKE than a WILL? the MIKE and the WILL are almost the exact same player.  They're the same thing.  there's not much that separates the two.  it just allows us to get guys on the filed quicker.  He was the most experienced of the guys --so if there are any subtleties -- to move there.  And age.  he's got [two years] of being out there in the big games, where James [Ross] has had one year.  Joe Bolden showed be some very good things, too.  Royce [Jenkins-Stone] did some very good things.  It's just again, who keeps improvign this summer."    http://mgoblog.com/content/spring-practice-presser-transcript-4-15-13-greg-mattison

5 days 17 hours ago	According to Sam, OSU may	According to Sam, OSU may have been the early leader because Jamarco saw how many lineman we've taken in the last couple classes.  But the coaches have apparently done a pretty good job convincing him that most of those guys are guards, and Jamarco is a tackle.  I find that convincing, coming from Sam anyways.
5 days 17 hours ago	Sam Webb still says, and has	Sam Webb still says, and has repeatedly said, that we are in good shape for Jamarco.  I trust his opinion more than any other recruiting insider.  I think this one goes our way.
6 days 20 hours ago	Yeah.  You can't blame anyone	Yeah.  You can't blame anyone for doubting him though. 1 out of every 500 times someone on the internet says that he has a friend of a friend of a guy, it's legit.
1 week 1 day ago	If you were watching it in	If you were watching it in Magnus fashion you would say that his legs are too skinny to play SAM.
1 week 1 day ago	He said that Michigan is	He said that Michigan is recruiting him as a middle linebacker.
1 week 1 day ago	Shouldn't it be Darren	Shouldn't it be Darren McFadden and Felix Jones at Arkansas?  Jones and McFadden each put up over 1,000 yards in the same season multiple times I think.  I don't think Peyton ran the ball much in that backfield.
1 week 4 days ago	I don't think the Bunting	I don't think the Bunting reactions is homerism.  You would have to be blind not to see the potential in him as a receiving tight end.
1 week 4 days ago	They are giving Montgomery	They are giving Montgomery credit for Michael Ferns, Wilton Speight, Bryan Mone, Mason Cole, and an Oklahoma commit.
1 week 4 days ago	Jamarco should be a green	Jamarco should be a green face fa sho'.  I believe in Sam Webb.
1 week 6 days ago	The caller asked him to name	The caller asked him to name the 5 uncommitted recruits that are most likely to end up a part of this class, not the last 5.  At the end Sam said he would throw a LB in there as the 6th.
1 week 6 days ago	I think Sam said that he was	I think Sam said that he was going to discuss Jackson and Westphal on tomorrow's recruiting roundup.
1 week 6 days ago	Ole Miss had 27 commits last	Ole Miss had 27 commits last year.  Michigan could have 10 fewer than that.  I don't think Michigan is competing for the top overall spot given the size of their class.
1 week 6 days ago	Has Sam really gone so far as	Has Sam really gone so far as to say Michigan is in the lead for Hand?  I think he has been pretty careful about not saying that.
2 weeks 12 hours ago	To be fair, Sam Hubbard is	To be fair, Sam Hubbard is the #3 OLB on Scout, so obviously some people think he is grossly underrated also.
2 weeks 12 hours ago	I don't think he dispelled	I don't think he dispelled anything. You can't fairly compare a recruit's June 1st offer sheets to another recruit's January offer sheets.  The 29th linebackers in those previous classes committed much later than Winovich (three of the four committed in January).  The longer a player's recruitment goes on, the more likely he is to rack of better offers as other players of the same position come off the board.  Being a team's plan F or G option a month or two before signing day is not the same as being a team's plan B or plan C option in the summer before your senior year. Comparing Winovich's offer list in June to those other players' offer lists in January is not apples to apples.

2 weeks 1 day ago	Green and a healthy Fitz is a	Green and a healthy Fitz is a solid backfield.  Hopefully Green can learn the offense and Fitz can fully recover (physically and mentally).
2 weeks 1 day ago	I don't think it is fair to	I don't see how it is fair to compare someone's June 1st offer list with someone else's signing day offer list.  When teams strike out with recruits, they naturally have to offer players further down on their list.  If you were offered in June, it is more impressive than being offered later in the process.  Plus, players earn offers their Senior year by playing well.  They have another year to add size and add to their highlight tape.  If Winovich waited until signing day to commit, and remained open in his recruitment, he would undoubtedly have more offers. All those guys you listed committed much later than Winovich, three of them waited until January.
2 weeks 1 day ago	Sam Webb said this morning	Sam Webb said this morning that Winovich is in line for a big time ratings bump on Scout based on their most recent review of his film.
2 weeks 4 days ago	Sam Webb said earlier this	Sam Webb said earlier this week on the recruiting roundup that if Winovich decides shortly after his Pitt visit, it looks good for Michigan, and if he waits and takes more visits after Pitt, it looks less certain.

3 weeks 2 days ago	I'm not sure that "crazier	I'm not sure that "crazier stuff has happened before."  I'm not a recruiting historian or anything, but has there been a time when we had such a huge lead for a guy that nobody even knew who his second place might be on the day of his announcement, and he announced to somehwere else?  I don't even know who the competition is for Peppers.  Sam always said Stanford if he ever made in on campus, which he didn't.  It isn't OSU or LSU, who he visited and didn't seem to like.  I guess the only other possibility would be Rutgers and there is probably less than a 1% chance of that happening.
3 weeks 2 days ago	I can't believe that guy	I can't believe that guy still has a year and a half left to get better before his first game as a true freshman.  Crazy.
