January 31st, 2012 at 11:32 AM ^
Welcome to the family, Willie! For real this time.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:34 AM ^
Henry is a good pickup in my opinion. Welcome to Michigan Willie!
January 31st, 2012 at 11:34 AM ^
Okay good. But I'm suspicious it will go away again.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:34 AM ^
commits. Welcome again Willie.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:34 AM ^
...tremendous. Henry is a diamond in the rough [hopes this is foreshadowing].
January 31st, 2012 at 12:29 PM ^
and welcome back, Shoe... it's been a while.
January 31st, 2012 at 2:40 PM ^
ooooohhhhh rough! Just the way your mother likes it MgoShoe!
lol welcome back.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:36 AM ^
Yes! Get the recruit commitment train running again....
January 31st, 2012 at 11:36 AM ^
Love getting another kid from that HS
January 31st, 2012 at 11:37 AM ^
It sucks he lost his moment in the sun due to some kind of mixup, but I'm glad to have him. Welcome onboard!
January 31st, 2012 at 12:31 PM ^
he will have plenty more opportunities to shine in the future.....!
January 31st, 2012 at 11:37 AM ^
Well good to hear, he's definitely a sleeper prospect, hopefully we can coach him up
January 31st, 2012 at 11:38 AM ^
Welcome, William Henry Garrison - as in troops stationed at a fortress to defend it.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:39 AM ^
We own the night ladies. We own the night.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:42 AM ^
Your avatar has never been as wrong as it is now, coupled with that post.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:43 AM ^
January 31st, 2012 at 11:45 AM ^
confidence in THIS staff to coach em up! Especially on D!!
January 31st, 2012 at 11:46 AM ^
a shocking development!
January 31st, 2012 at 11:48 AM ^
Welcome again. Let's hope another commitment comes in today to keep with the usual 2-fer plan.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:49 AM ^
I was hoping that would take another DT in this class. I think after a red shirt year and weight gain it looks like we have a guy that get after the QB in the inside.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:52 AM ^
Does anyone know we can get video on this kid? Free video . . .
January 31st, 2012 at 11:52 AM ^
Welcome to the best place you've ever been. We're looking forward to seeing you on the field . . . soon, I hope.
January 31st, 2012 at 11:52 AM ^
Great to hear he chose UofM. I say we give him the nicknam Chill Will. I dont know him and I dont even know if he is that chill, but it sounds awesome! Since Will Campbell is BWC i thought this was just.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:00 PM ^
My vote is for "Will the Thrill".
January 31st, 2012 at 12:11 PM ^
for Tippecanoe.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:53 PM ^
Damn. You beat me to it. Love me some Neil Diamond though.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:06 PM ^
Good to have him back.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:38 PM ^
that Todd Marinovich was such a great dancer?!
January 31st, 2012 at 12:42 PM ^
never gets old
January 31st, 2012 at 12:10 PM ^
Welcome to the team again Willie! Great pick-up for the Wolverines.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:11 PM ^
My nickname vote would be "Killer Will'.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:18 PM ^
January 31st, 2012 at 12:26 PM ^
Talk about a guy with upside. Here's a kid with great speed who has been splitting his time between two sports. Now that he'll be focused on football, and will be developed by three outstanding defensive line coaches, this is the kind of kid who can really become a player. He clearly is blessed with a lot of athleticism and a great frame. I love that he has the agility to play basketball and tight end in high school. These are the kinds of guys Hoke has developed throughout his career. An excellent pickup at a position where we need more talent and a deeper rotation. Welcome Willie!
January 31st, 2012 at 12:36 PM ^
...and play fullback.
January 31st, 2012 at 1:40 PM ^
Is there any chance he plays TE for us?
January 31st, 2012 at 12:29 PM ^
kids guna be a stud!
January 31st, 2012 at 12:36 PM ^
Is this the first Glenville player M (hopeully will) sign since Woods?
I wonder if this means the beef (whatever it was) was squashed with Ginn?
January 31st, 2012 at 12:41 PM ^
Frank Clark
January 31st, 2012 at 12:41 PM ^
We got Frank Clark last year.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:40 PM ^
.....highly rated kids, and it sucks to lose out on them, especially to schools like Ohio, this commitment was one I was hoping for.
The bulk of any good team is made up of the guys who are rated middle of the road, so to speak. Guys who just aren't highly rated for one reason or another, but can still play ball with the best of them. Mr. Willie Henry seems to be one of those guys, and I believe he will be a very good player for us in the future.
Welcome Willie. Here's to years of you planting opposing OL on their butts and opposing QBs and RBs 6 feet under.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:42 PM ^
on a DT this late in the game. Just a few months back we had a 5-star in Tommy Schutt (sp?) wanting to commit to us and we tell him no thanks. Now we are bringing in a 3-star out of the blue. What gives? Did the class not quite come together as planned? Are we just hoping to get a in with Glenville?
Either way.....welcome Willie! We are happy to have you.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:42 PM ^
I kid, I kid.
January 31st, 2012 at 12:50 PM ^
I am shocked!
January 31st, 2012 at 12:52 PM ^
Is he a three star or has he been moved up to four?
January 31st, 2012 at 2:36 PM ^
The Schutt thing keeps coming up and up. But keep in mind that, despite his high rankings, and despite interest from so many other top-tier teams, M and ND flat rebuffed him. It's worth nothing that both these schools hold kids to different standards than do, say, OSU and PSU. So, although Schutt may well be a gifted athlete who's nice to his mother, perhaps M and ND had additional reasons to conclude that he just isn't an appropriate fit for their programs/universities.
January 31st, 2012 at 2:58 PM ^
Welcome to the good guys Willie! I'm glad it's official now. I was feeling like this
