Over at Hokes Mad Magicians sarah does an excellent job with recruiting updates and other things regarding Michigan Athletics. In fact, i wouldn't mind seeing a link to her page over on the sidebar(also for "Tremendous") in place of some of the sites that no longer have new content.
Anyway, this is a list of everyone who is confirmed at this point and who is potentially coming, some interesting names on the list.
Don't have the points to post this. It seems Meyer is having himself quite the issue trying to control what his incoming recruiting class is putting out on the web. Article also goes on to share some pretty alarming accusations about improper benefits(without giving any details).
For someone who can evaluate these players better than me who is better out of McCray and Gedeon? I ask this because Sam Webb seems to think that we will take Levenberry and one other linebacker(most likely whoever commits first of O'Daniel, McCray, Gedeon). I personally think we should take 3 if not 4, which seems to be the popular opinion on this baord.
I would much rather have McGovern now than potentially have Pocic later. I am no scout but my opinion was formed from watching both of their films'. I do think that all 4 of the big time Illinois lineman in the class are plan A recruits though. Just saying it would be a shame not to get Pocic thats all, no disrespect meant to McGovern(seems like a great kid and a great athlete).
and i would love for us to win a NC in basketball. Unless that loss comes during a 20 year period where thats our only loss against Ohio then i will take that 1 football game though. Why you might ask? because that isnt just a single regular season game to us.
than he seems destined for OT. I am guessing that would mean that Bosch and Fox would both slide inside along with Dawson to make room for him. If one of either Bosch or Fox ends up at OT though it seems like the coaches would be persuing another OG/C type instead of someone like McGovern. It's obvious that this kid has loads of talent but it will be interesting to see what they do with the last OL spot. It seems like they are still pushing the hardest for OT types like Mcgovern, Pocic, and Kugler though.
Which safety, TE, and DT we have the best chance with? i know we have great prospects left at linebacker, Wide Reciever and Running Back but i haven't seen a lot of strong interest from those other positions with the recruits left on the board.
This year the coaches really got a jump on recruiting and now it allows them to evaluate the rest of this class and the 2014 class more closely to reel in even better players. This staff is absolutely outstanding.
thats all i have to say when i watch this kid... he always seems to have a feel for pressure(maybe because he is always in trouble in his backfield) and knows when to get the ball out. Kid is an absolute talent.
it wasn't so much snarky as it was sarcasm. I can understand how a lot of people on this site have a lot more football knowledge than i do. In cases like these though i always love to speculate as well but it all comes down to the coaches and what they think, because we are pretty consistently wrong as fans.
In all seriousness though you have to respect a kid who takes a visit that he absolutely loves and still goes home to digest everything. It shows a maturity that most 18 year olds don't have, those are the kids that want to make the best choice for their future.
It's good seeing him on campus so much, gotta love the chance you have with a kid who spends this much time around the program and coaches. Logan will be a tough pull just because of how many schools are after him and will soon be after him. You certainly can't say Hoke and his staff haven't done an outstanding job of evaluating and offering top talent across the country.
Thanks also for all the hard work you have been putting in to keep us all informed. Your gonna be quite the source of information throughout this entire 2013 recruiting cycle.
To be honest i always expected this kids recruitment to blow up. He is the real deal and would be a great weapon for our future offense along with Shane.
I don't really see how that is insulting or even original. You would think that he could come up with something better, after all he is supposed to be the savior of ohio.
Couldn't have asked for more in the offseason. With your comics and all the great recruiting info being passed around this will be a short and sweet offseason.
Especially now that he feels like he has something to prove after him and Lucas did all that talking last year. Wasn't he the one that said "I am not going to lose to them again" after the first loss last year?

he has been gone long enough for me to stop looking down these posts for a TOM VH comment, but i guess not.

I feel like Pocic may be the best of the bunch.
but no one minds some first hand experience with the recruits. What do you got?

double post fail
i'm giving you a +1 in my head right now
This year the coaches really got a jump on recruiting and now it allows them to evaluate the rest of this class and the 2014 class more closely to reel in even better players. This staff is absolutely outstanding.
1 more TE
would want to come to Michigan to play with someone like that. He makes everyone around him look so much better, like Aaron Rodgers except faster.
thats all i have to say when i watch this kid... he always seems to have a feel for pressure(maybe because he is always in trouble in his backfield) and knows when to get the ball out. Kid is an absolute talent.
has to keep it up all half... he is too athletic for them
how is this so out of control!?
have to keep the pressure on them with the refs calling everything. Good game for Hardaway to get it going
get the ball inside and get them in early foul trouble as well
that kid has a lot of potential.
man sometimes you just have to let them play a little bit.... ticky tac fouls all night
bigs have to play smart
Probably not gonna be exciting til late, just have to be smart with the ball and with our fouls.
to that quadruple option though. I don't think anyway saw that one coming, so props to the Nebraska OC.
i always enjoy it when the people with a higher basketball IQ than me give me my rooting interests.
it wasn't so much snarky as it was sarcasm. I can understand how a lot of people on this site have a lot more football knowledge than i do.

bluestreak is clearly either a talent evaluator or a Michigan coach.

or are they just blowing smoke like they usually do?

Then i want a second opinion.
does anyone have a link or know if they are still on youtube?
So tragic to hear stories like this when these kids have been blessed with so much.

Especially after we beat a healthy MSU team twice last year. I look forward to us mopping the floor with them for years to come.
losing your most valuable player to injury is a good excuse. Our team would be in trouble without Burke, Hardaway and Novak.
David dawson
but after missing on Grant, he is someone i wish the coaches would have made a hard play for.
and why do you know things?
Because we don't have anyone who can play center.
confirms he has been Assistant Coach since 08.
