    Their high school coaches and AAU coaches have probably a better appreciation of Michigan than maybe they had before," Beilein said. "It's a tough balance right now. Tim Hardaway and Trey Burke weren't really high-profile players, nor was Darius Morris, and all were high-profile players. "We're still looking at 'who is the best fit.' "

to answer your question, yes. see here: http://mgoblog.com/content/friday-recruitin-battles-buckle-phobia

where you will find the following:

 

BONUS BONUS: Speaking of good defensive back recruits, IL CB Parrker Westphal could be approaching a commitment, per TomVH ($):

After his visit to Arizona State [this weekend] Westphal says he might take a trip to Tennessee, but nothing is set in stone. From there he will only focus on those schools on his list and continue to visit and evaluate what those programs have to offer. Westphal still says he is in no hurry to make a decision, but would like to get it done sooner than later.

“I want to make it before the season,” he said. “Games don’t start until August, but practice is in a few weeks so we’ll see when it happens.”

Michigan is "still the school he uses to compare other visits," and Westphal noted that his recent Florida visit went well... with the caveat that Michigan offers better academics. If he sticks to a summer decision timeline, it's hard to see him ending up elsewhere.

4 days 23 hours ago a little OT but I thought

a little OT but I thought interesting nonetheless:

Chantel Jennings‏@ChantelJennings40m

Curt Mallory confirms Raymon Taylor's sub 4.4 time in the 40. holy. freaking. smokes.

 
5 days 2 hours ago does anybody know, do you

does anybody know, do you have to be invited to one of these Elite 11 camps or can you just show up?

6 days 2 hours ago pardon, but i thought

pardon, but i thought winovich actually looked pretty big - as big as ferns - in that pic of the two of them that has been floating around.

6 days 18 hours ago slightly off topic, but it

slightly off topic, but it looks like lawrence marshall was offered by Florida. that is another nice offer for him.

1 week 1 hour ago click on "show all" under

click on "show all" under college choices and look at the "offer" column.

http://rivals.yahoo.com/kansas/football/recruiting/player-Jimmie-Swain-147399

1 week 18 hours ago Something seemed "off" about

Something seemed "off" about this recruitment process all along, starting with reports that he was ready to commit immediately to a school before even visiting. Then reports that the coaching staff cooled on him. Makes me wonder what kind of diligence the staff does before making offers.

2 weeks 4 days ago i'm not aware of anywhere in

i'm not aware of anywhere in the world where that would be considered a travel.

2 weeks 6 days ago OT, but it looks like

OT, but it looks like Christian McCaffrey just committed to Stanford, per his twitter

2 weeks 6 days ago my god, that fluke season

my god, that fluke season notre dame had last year is like the best thing that ever happened to them. unbelievable.

3 weeks 23 hours ago i don't remember artavis

i don't remember artavis scott ever giving off the vibe that he has a favorite (much less whether that favorite is michigan). seems like people are assuming he will come here because of Cole and the 2015 guy who likes us?

5 weeks 3 days ago is Chris Fox really a guard?

is Chris Fox really a guard?

7 weeks 1 day ago let us not forget that

let us not forget that beilein used to play syracuse 2+ times per year when he was at west virigina. so, it ain't like it's the first time he's seen the zone. it also helps big time if you've got a guy in the high post who can catch the ball around the foul line and dribble drive or fake a few passes and hit the open guy. fake passes are key i think, because the zone needs to shift in anticipation.

8 weeks 27 min ago sparty is 2 and 7 against

sparty is 2 and 7 against duke in recent years. i think he got his first taste of sparty blood a long time ago...

9 weeks 5 days ago jones is definitely an a-hole

jones is definitely an a-hole (in fact, that's the only reason he has stuck around the league this long -- he is like a hockey goon that knows his role), but are you really begrudging him for what his parents' named him?

10 weeks 1 hour ago i hope it shakes out like

i hope it shakes out like this: "the five best offensive linemen are put on the field, regardless of our preconceived notions of who we think should be the five best offensive linemen"

10 weeks 1 day ago this is good free marketing

this is good free marketing for umich football. i like.

10 weeks 1 day ago It's a little unfair to use

It's a little unfair to use selective quotes from the board to paint the MSU fanbase as a whole, though i love it as much as the next guy.

I guess the point is -- we all know that this board has its own share of idiots too.

10 weeks 5 days ago not sure if this is serious,

not sure if this is serious, but saying that someone is "nice" means that they are good at what they do. it doesn't mean "nice" in the sense that you are thinking. for example, demens might watch trey burke play a game and then say "man, burke is nice".

13 weeks 6 days ago the NBA drafts primarily on

the NBA drafts primarily on potential, not on results. i think this affects his draft stock minimally, at most. 

14 weeks 1 day ago yeah, but if it was a

yeah, but if it was a positive post with no source it would not have been downvoted.

14 weeks 1 day ago wtf is wrong with the people

wtf is wrong with the people on this board that this post got downvoted? i mean, ridiculous. absolutely ridiculous.

14 weeks 1 day ago i think this kid needs to

i think this kid needs to drink more milk.

14 weeks 2 days ago guys, if Wisconsin won by

guys, if Wisconsin won by like 7 or 8, you wouldn't see this celebration. the celebration is mostly because they stole a win with a half court shot. you are placing too much emphasis on michigan here.

14 weeks 2 days ago holy moly do i wish people on

holy moly do i wish people on here would stop placing so much emphasis on dashawn hand coming to UM. we all realize that the odds are low, correct? it makes us look as if we're not grounded in reality. just asking for a letdown. recruit the hell out of the kid and hope he comes, but man do people need to tone it down.

14 weeks 4 days ago ...

...

14 weeks 5 days ago sure, treat him as a serious

sure, treat him as a serious recruit -- i'm down with that. but this all started when the OP essentially assumed Hand + McDowell are coming when he stated (paraphrasing) "that leaves only 12 spots". i see no basis for making a casual statement that assumes either much less both of those guys are coming. if you put McDowell at 50% and Hand at 25% that leaves us with 12.5% chance of getting both guys. in other words, odds are not with us, so why make the casual statement that assumes both are coming?  . i tfrom eve

14 weeks 5 days ago i don't think it's fair to

i don't think it's fair to bust this guy's chops. like it or not, irrational exuberance is often on display from a lot of people on this board. i remember when sua cravens mentioned michigan, people starting saying "if we get cravens and X...". same with joe mathis. the worst example was reuben foster. i mean, the fact that people started mentioning that kid as if he might come here, really just crazy talk. 

16 weeks 1 hour ago seems like UM needs to focus

seems like UM needs to focus on tackles more so than guards, no?

17 weeks 2 days ago release the phone records

release the phone records (redacted to remove all other calls). someone independent review. prove that you spent hours on the phone several nights talking to this other person. for me, that is the only way I will be satisfied given that it is factual and so so so easy to do.
