I thought of the same thing. There's a chance Najee is on the same flight as Tua (SAT to ATL) but then connecting to DTW. At least, that's what I'm hoping for!
A quick Delta search shows there are two direct flights from SAT to DTW on Sunday. One seems inconveniently early (7:05a) and the other seems inconveniently late (5:30p getting in at 9:30p). The remaining options all transfer via ATL. Of course there's a reasonable chance he could be flying a different carrier.
There's a saying that the measure of one's character is what one does when no one's watching. I think Solomon's statement in Holloman's Periscope is likely how he really feels. That said, not every recruit will think as highly of M as we all do, and that's OK. Class move by Aubrey to follow up with the apology. Best of luck to him wherever he decides to play his college ball. Go Blue!
February earlier this year I had just boarded a flight from LAX to San Jose after getting in from Shanghai. After I sat down a woman who was boarding saw my M hat and said "Go Blue" as she walked by. Still a little disoriented from the previous flight, I said a delayed "Go Blue" back to her and then turned back around only to see a monstrous human being looking down at me smiling. It was Rashan Gary. Given that it was Super Bowl weekend I can only assume Rashan and his Mom were heading to Santa Clara for the big game.
I think they are just saying if the regular season ended today the bowl participants would be those you listed, not necessarily what it will be like at the end of the regular season.
Wonderful event. Brought great exposure to the incoming class, University, and the team overall. Agree that Holtz was excellent and to see so much support coming from so many different angles was amazing.
It's just too bad the Gary commitment (more likely signing confirmation) didn't make it in time to officially announce at the end.
Do we have any clarity on the position Kingston is getting brought in as, RB or FB (or something else)? My understanding is that Reese, although currently a HS LB, is getting brought in as a FB.
So much exciting stuff happens after said memorable event. Having just finished the 3rd book I feel like the 4th season of the show is going to be non-stop craaaaaaziness. Can't wait!
No King Joffrey appearance in this episode. Nice!
The story's moving pretty fast. Makes you wonder if they're still planning to split book 3 into two seasons?
Great to hear that Mathis had a good time at the camp and on campus. Hope Michigan can stay on him hard despite being so far away.
I'm curious to hear Mathis' reaction to his and Cravens' visit to Nebraska's spring game next weekend. I think his response to that visit will tell us whether or not he's one of those recruits who is blown away everywhere he visits. I hope he isn't and that Michigan continues to sit in the driver's seat for his services!
Looks like Cravens and Mathis are scheduled to visit Nebraska for their spring game on 4/14. Hope Mathis' visit to AA next weekend is eye-opening enough to keep Michigan in strong standing.
Never good to see transfers, but best of luck to all 3.
Two main concerns:
1. Ball handling: who else besides Trey will we rely on to bring up the ball? Stu is graduating and Brundidge is transferring.
2. Experience: Smot had two solid years under his belt. It's definitely a blow to the program when someone with significant minutes logged leaves (in addition to the Stu/Novak graduations), even when we replace him with a top incoming recruit.
Assuming one of Kugler, Pocic, and McGovern takes the final OL spot, I'm curious to know which of the remaining two fall into the "we'll take you anyway since you're just that good" bucket?
I'd imagine Pocic does, but what's McGovern's story? Can't say I know too much about him.
Didn't really think about this until I came across your post, but doesn't it make sense for kids to hold no loyalty to Saban when they know that he'd drop them like a bad habbit after just one injury or a poor season?
I agree and am glad M focuses on moreso on character, family, tradition, etc. than the promise of mega millions at the next level.

Predicting 4+ TDs for the game!

Anyone know which camps the coaches will be coaching (Pratville) vs. observing (PA)?
I guess we shift some more resources toward Tyler Cook and Seth Towns now?

Any clue who may fall on that list?

If it's Kozan then it's been the longest 36 hours in the history of time.
