Alabama and Florida State offers, among many more. Spent last year in Texas before moving back to Detroit.

Dawson is unranked at this point, but his recruitment has been blowing up and I would be surprised if he doesn't turn out to be a 4 star. He recently got offers from ND, Alabama, and plenty of others.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:36 PM ^
You get an offer from ND, and Bama you should pretty much be a lock for a fourth star with all the services. Hell of a day.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:38 PM ^
He's a Rivals 250, 4-star. That's enough recruiting-site pedigree for me any day!
February 18th, 2012 at 2:27 PM ^
Huge OT/OG type, top 250 to Rivals, offers from everyone. Get excited about him.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:31 PM ^
Consider it done.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:24 PM ^
February 18th, 2012 at 2:24 PM ^
Pretty nice day for you guys. Congrats.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:31 PM ^
I checked out RCMB for a moment (then ran my anti virus). You guys don't seem too worried...apparently this increases your chances with Ethan Pocic.
Srsly.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:54 PM ^
I know you're being sarcastic, but I've heard nothing on Pocic lately so I have no clue. tRCMB has zillions of users and just as many opinions. One thing's for sure: the Midwest is loaded with OT/OG talent this year.
That said, nobody anywhere in the country should be "worried" about their team's recruiting since it's only Feb. Unless you're a PSU fan ... Then maybe you'd be worried.
February 18th, 2012 at 3:19 PM ^
Especially with PSU and Illinois coaching turnover and Wisconsin coaching staff gutted, Sparty is well positioned to grab their share with guys like Riley Norman, Cameron Dillard, Patrick Kugler, Colin McGovern, Colin Goebel, Evan Lisle, Lovell Peterson, and Mike McGlinchey. It will be interesting to follow to see if Dantonio can take advantage of the situation. If he doesn't, then I would be worried if I was a Sparty fan especially given their success the last 2 years. Personally, I don't think they have any shot at Pocic given the number of his elite offers and his already existing connections to Illinois (older bro) and Michigan (David Molk's HS), but there are a lot of other solid prospects in the Midwest to be had.
February 18th, 2012 at 5:00 PM ^
I can't help the sarcasm and, yes, the Sparty faithful do have a lot of *interesting* opinions. I can see why you work the MGoBlog.
As to Penn State and recruiting...it still is Penn State with a huge alumni base, the white out, the parking lots, and parking lots and jeebus, the parking lots filled with white clad tailgaters. It is a good school and they'll ultimately get their mojo back. The remarkably sad outcomes of the Sandusky era will fade (particularly for people from PA) and PSU will return to some prominence (including recruiting).
February 18th, 2012 at 2:32 PM ^
Appreciate the good thoughts. Heard you guys got Resche the other day so Michigan schools are swooping in on some recruits.
February 18th, 2012 at 3:10 PM ^
Hope we can help you guys tonight!!!
February 18th, 2012 at 2:28 PM ^
that I have but one +1 to give for this gif.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:31 PM ^
This gif makes an awesome day even awesomer, or should I say Tremendous!

no doubt about it
February 18th, 2012 at 3:06 PM ^
I think this gif should be added to the Muppet's Post!
February 18th, 2012 at 3:18 PM ^
Between the Muppets and this GIF, it is an easy choice.

Kate Upton ..Michigan Casey Anthony..OSU .... you see what im saying ?

Really? How do you know? Cause if you're right I think that I just shit a brick.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:39 PM ^
Michigan could have nine commitments by this time next week.
He has now gone from 7 by next week to now 9.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:25 PM ^
A lot of rankings aren't out yet, but both project to be 4 stars. Lewis is already a 4 star to most sites, and although Dawson is unranked, his recruitment has been blowing up lately, with offers from ND, Alabama, and plenty of others. And just imagine, we still lead by a wide margin for LTT, Taco, and Treadwell!
February 18th, 2012 at 2:30 PM ^
Dawson is not unranked he is a 4-star, #199 overall to Rivals. He is our fourth rivals 250 commit in one day. Gotta be a record.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:38 PM ^
By comparison, MSU only has 3 rivals250 recruits... in the past 2 years. #HALOL
February 18th, 2012 at 3:28 PM ^
a four star and a 90 overall to 24/7. I don't understand why so many people are saying Dawson is unranked.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:26 PM ^
We need a Big 10 Recruiting Rankings post, just so I can see us at the top again. :)
February 18th, 2012 at 2:27 PM ^
Four Rivals 250 players in one day that is crazy!
February 18th, 2012 at 2:27 PM ^
they come in pairs of pairs!
February 18th, 2012 at 2:27 PM ^
Hoke:hey how did you spent your staurday? Urban: eh,just watched some tv and did some thing around the house. What about you? Hoke: just landed four 4* players.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:31 PM ^
Let's not go overboard. I don't think Urban is too concerned.
Dantonio on the other hand...
February 18th, 2012 at 2:46 PM ^
Wowwwww what a great day for Michigan recruiting!!
Lewis looks like he's got a lil hunny badger in em.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:28 PM ^
... because he sure isn't doing anything in-state.
Another year of:

Probably headed to Japan to pick up a few sumo wrestlers. Don't worry he has a plan...LOL

I feel like my head is swirling around in a whirlwind of celabratory gifs...

How do you like it? How do you like it? More, more, more...

Ugh, isn't that the Michigan Tech hockey chant? Some douches were behind me at the GLI this year when Michigan was playing Boston doing that chant when Boston would score.
February 18th, 2012 at 2:29 PM ^
Can Dawsom play center?
