Just found out i will be keeping my #72 in college Ballgame!!
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:35 PM ^
Pls don't make him another Jordan Diamond
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:35 PM ^
I must be wrong but I thought he went to Alabama this weekend.
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:36 PM ^
He was there last weekend I believe
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:43 PM ^
He was at the hockey game against Miami tonight
February 4th, 2012 at 1:28 AM ^
You down with LTT?!...Yeah you know me! (Sorry had to do it)
I really hope we can own Illinois for 2013. Could you imagine if we landed: Isaac, LTT, Bosch, Pocic, and/or Treadwell
February 4th, 2012 at 2:30 AM ^
Yes. I have imagined it. It turned out well.
February 4th, 2012 at 2:30 AM ^
wrong.
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:45 PM ^
I'd love Alabama to get this kid's signature next winter. I get the feeling he's a massive Michigan lean at this point however, even if he says Michigan and Bama are tied. Great strength at this point, which is great to see. A lot of times when kids are as big as Logan, they haven't developed the strength they should have. Good lateral movement, and from the film, looks like a solid hand punch. He actually went itno Saban's office on his visit, or the "place recruits don't leave uncommitted" room. I always say, if Tricky Nicky can't get you hooked on that first visit, than that kid is likely going someplace else.

You can stay as long as you want with posts like these RDT. You can sleep in my bed. I'll take the couch.
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:47 PM ^
I hope you remain as even-keeled as you are right now in your future posts! I just have a bad feeling whenever we (the big 10) have to go up against the SEC for a recruit... Just seems like the vast majority of recruits, especially if they aren't from the midwest, get roped into the SEC. It may be that distance is what is keeping Tillman and other midwest recruits from committing initially to the SEC, but if they keep their recruitment open, like Diamond for example, it seems like they always end up down there for some reason.
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:50 PM ^
They get reminded of a Midwest winter?
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:53 PM ^
That Michigan and Bama go head to head for a recruit. The times we do go head to head, is because Saban offer everyboddy of any value. Having ::cough:: coached so many places around the country, he has established so many contacts, that he probably has the widest net of any college football coach. Take Richardson, Ross, and Jenkins-Stone for example. Alabama offered all 3. Would we get any of them? Absolutely not. What it does do however, is it keeps Saban connected, when there is an absolute star at that school, that Saban feels he can get. It's quite brilliant when you think about it. When you coach in a football hotbed state like Alabama, you can afford to take a risks on kids across the country.
February 4th, 2012 at 1:27 AM ^
What about Demetrius Hart? And how do you feel about what went down with Alabama just happening to practice at Dr. Phillips?
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:49 PM ^
February 4th, 2012 at 12:18 AM ^
Is there any word on our man Dee Hart and how his rehab is going?? Thanks.
February 4th, 2012 at 12:28 AM ^
He was actually back at practice in late November, and got in even more time during bowl prep. Ideally, I think Nick would love to get him on the field, even with the running back depth we have. Because Dee really provides you with an explosive option catching the ball out of the backfield. That being said, there are some rumors around campus, that he may not be long for the program. There have been a lot of rumors regarding Dee, and I think he's openly considering transferring. It has been a tough go of it for him, because Saban is STARK difference from the envvironment that he was use to. A lot of people around the program, think he'll end up at Arizona with Rich Rodriguez. And when you see the passion in which Nick is recruiting running backs, you'd have to agree.
February 4th, 2012 at 12:53 AM ^
Dee hart doesn't have Sabans RB size I believe
February 4th, 2012 at 9:56 AM ^
that might actually make a happy ending.
February 4th, 2012 at 12:49 AM ^
I think I love you?
February 4th, 2012 at 4:34 AM ^
Where is all this hero worship coming from? The guy seems like a solid poster that has insight from another fanbase, but if you scroll down you'll see at least half a dozen guys propose marriage. As a guy who seems like he can make good contributions to the board, welcome. But my fellow posters sound like an IT department would if Megan Fox walked through the doors...
I'm not trying to knock the Bama guy, but guys, please keep it in your pants.
February 4th, 2012 at 9:58 AM ^
Haven't you figured out that the majority here are Wal-mart Wolverines, and behave as such?
February 4th, 2012 at 10:54 AM ^
This has to be King of Belch/Barking Spincter doesn't it?
February 4th, 2012 at 11:36 AM ^
One can only hope!

I heart Irish.
February 4th, 2012 at 2:04 PM ^
Leave some recruits for the rest of us.
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:44 PM ^
he was at the hockey game tonight but he also tweeted that he would be visiting florida and fsu in like late june or july. I don't remember. So by hoke law, the only way he will be ours is when hes done visiting and that won't be til atleast mid summer. Aqua did say something about an all star game if I remember right. I will be interested if that time line stays the same if this class takes off like a bat out of hell like shane said in his tweet on NSD.
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:47 PM ^
What did Shane tweet?
February 4th, 2012 at 12:22 AM ^
something along the lines of you better get your spot now because there going fast...
February 4th, 2012 at 12:47 AM ^
How many OL r they taking next yr?
February 4th, 2012 at 12:59 AM ^
Probably 3-5
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:51 PM ^
Yeah he said that LTT moved his announcement date from Spring to the UA game next year or something.
February 4th, 2012 at 12:45 AM ^
Not a good news if he wants to wai
February 3rd, 2012 at 11:54 PM ^
February 4th, 2012 at 12:02 AM ^
Probably didn't hurt that it was a blowout win either, I bet Yost was going crazy
February 4th, 2012 at 12:35 AM ^
I see moving forward is that "Liar" offers a ton of kids that are 5 stars and hopes some stick. My issue is we need to start offering up sooner to the for sure 5 star Mid West kids and not take our time w them, this year is a very very important recruiting year coming up. We nit only have to replace a lot of depth but also we need to fill needs. I look at next yr's class of WR and I don't think we have offered any if the top 5 kids at the position. Same w Ty Isaac we offer him but nobody else that's a legit 5 Star RB, waiting and seeing is gonna cost us in the long run. To many others are going to come in at the end and convince or flip our guys. I'm waiting and hoping this class for next year is a strong or if not better because we need to stock pile talent and get people talking again, as a die hard Michigan Fan, the last couple months of watching us miss on over 5 top prospects that most experts thought we had locked up already and to sit and watch them string us along as "Liar" poached everyone he could just kills me. I'm hoping for at least 3 or 4 Five Star kids in this class alone to help w RR disastrous classes we had.
February 4th, 2012 at 12:40 AM ^
Hoke needs to do what Urban did to Dunn, he would pull offers away from them. Btw RR gave us Denard.
February 4th, 2012 at 2:36 AM ^
does is win championships. Urban is a dirty, lying cheater. I hope he burns in hell.
February 4th, 2012 at 3:05 AM ^
Hart20 knows what he's talking about. I'm not scared of Urban's recruits. We have Hoke. Hoke uber alles.
February 4th, 2012 at 7:57 AM ^
Urban takes other schools' commits, but that isn't cheatng. In the SEC he was one of the only guys who didn't oversign. Now he is one of the only guys who offers four year scholarships as opposed to the renewable ones. Can we drop this meme until we have some proof? We sound like Sparties.
February 4th, 2012 at 9:22 AM ^
I agree about committed recruits - doesn't matter until signing day.
But I don't think that's what everyone is talking about when calling Meyer a sleaze. I can't confirm all of this, but some of it can be comfirmed true - like the LSU test score story and the Jevan Snead story. I haven't found the Pouncey article, but Urban Meyer is the reason the NCAA had to initially put a limit on text message contact - so none of this seems out of character.
Urban Meyer is to overzealous and grey-area 'legal' recruiting what Houston Nutt is to oversigning.
February 4th, 2012 at 9:17 AM ^
February 4th, 2012 at 9:46 AM ^
Michigan also offers 4-year scholarships. They and most of the schools in the Big Ten (9 out of 12) did this year.
Penn State, Michigan, Michigan State, Iowa, Wisconsin, Northwestern and Illinois confirmed to ESPN.com that they have given out four-year scholarships to this class. Ohio State and Nebraska also confirmed on signing day that they are giving out scholarships that no longer have to be renewed annually. Purdue, Indiana and Minnesota are still awarding one-year renewable grants.

This:
"I look at next yr's class of WR and I don't think we have offered any if the top 5 kids at the position."
is not correct, unless you think James Quick, Robert Foster, Kevin Gladney and Marcell Atemen aren't potential top 5 guys and Laquon Treadwell, Jaron Dukes, and Marquez North aren't potential top-10 guys.
Regardless of that - they're all 6-1 through 6-5 receivers with speed and offers from the major regional BCS schools. Here's a list of 2013 WR offers (and NSD was Wednesday, so I'm sure more will go out):
Laquon Treadwell - 6'3 - Crete, IL
Jaron Dukes - 6-5 - Columbus
James Quick - 6-1 - Louisville
Jake Oliver - 6-4 - Dallas
Kevin Gladney - 6-4 - Akron
Marquez North - 6-3 - Charlotte, NC
Marcell Ateman - 6-5 - Wylie, TX
Richard Benjamin - 6-1 - Tampa
Rob Wheelwwright - 6-2 - Columbus
Devon Allen - 6-1 - Phoenix
Uriah Lemay - 6-2 - Matthews, NC (Brother Lemay on Georgia)
Also, from what it sounds like - Jaron Dukes may be the next 2013 Michigan commit, so that would give us a nice big-bodied receiver to start this year's WR corps.
February 4th, 2012 at 9:28 AM ^
Dude chill. Stars are for the recruiting services. Yeah they have a higher bell curve of being good but coaching makes the players. This staff has turned a walk on dlineman into an asset in less then a year. I believe whatever players we get be coached up the right way.
February 4th, 2012 at 10:07 AM ^
Whether you realize it or not, Urban Meyer at OSU is actually good for us... he is taking top recruits from PSU, MSU, Wisconsin, etc... ie he is resetting the dominance of the rivalry.... the players go to him which leave less space, and those extras go to us, leaving MSU, PSU, Wisconsin, none the wiser.
Why do you think MSU and Wisconsin have done so well these past four years? It was true, that our recruiting took a monster hit with Carr his last two years...and its been said was because 1. Martin forced him to stay on two more years, and Lloyd didn't have the recruiting energy, and 2. Miles sandbagged us and told Eugene that Carr had onset of Parkinsons, which spread like wildfire among the elite people and recruits. Then Martin hires RR, and RR acts like RR and MSU cleans up on recruits, and to lesser extent Wisconsin.
If you heard the recent complaints from Dantonio and Beilema, those are the cracks that are starting to form in the current heirarchy, and the natural order of things is returning.
Thank and love Urban Meyer....or at the very least, realize that love and hate are the same emotion.
February 4th, 2012 at 11:09 AM ^
I approve of this message, however did Ohio State ever really lose their foothold on Ohio recruits? Fickell never really had a "recruiting class". Meyer picked up the pieces of any missteps Fickell took and OSU never missed a beat.
<br>
<br>The credit for limiting MSU's and Wisconsin's inroads goes to Hoke and Co. Not Urban.
February 4th, 2012 at 12:44 AM ^
seems like a great kid, and a great fit for this program. Hopefully when he is done seeing other schools, he comes back to A2 and commits.
February 4th, 2012 at 12:56 AM ^
This kid Mario Ojemudia, he's going to be a 1st round draft pick some day. If you can get him around 250, his edge rush value to a 3-4 team would be quite large. If you go back to when Jason Pierre Paul was in high school, he has almost identical measurables, with JPP being 2 inches taller. I don't think Mario will go up to 275, or even 260 for that matter, but I do think Mattison will want him playing at around 250 where ever he plays at. He's one of my favorite hidden gem recruits in the entire country. That's the type of kis Bama loves to get. A lot of athletic ability, and Mattison can use him in so many different ways. You guys will love to have him, especially with the style of offense the patron saint of student aids, Urban Meyer is going to run.
Also, why in the hell does Ty Isaac not get with the plan and commit to Michigan? He just screams "Michigan back" to me. Big tough physical kid, with great vision, who isn't afraid to block.
