Good luck on running out of Urban's spread.  You could have been running behind the best O-line in the country for four years.  Poor choice young man.

While general board sentiment seems to be with Isaac, I like Ford better than Isaac. This has more to do with what film I've seen of the two. I really haven't seen Isaac face contact. He's just running by people on that same play over and over again. Oh, and I don't consider running over HS DBs that impressive either.

I've seen Ford do that. He's got nice cuts and good speed. Either one will be a good get. I haven't looked at Derrick Green's film, but don't count out Deveon Smith. That kid is a powerhouse. He doesn't have the speed of Isaac, but he's got power. I like him a lot. You really can't go wrong with any of these guys though. 

The key thing is I haven't seen Isaac run over/through guys. I'll have to review his film and see.

Am I the only one who thinks Kate Upton might have a little something to do with this? These kids surely are Sports Illustrated subscribers...

I don't want to fixate on nonMichigan fanbases, but the Ohio fanbase is like damn Urban can't recruit better than Michigan, and Sparty is like how is Dantonio gonna turn enough 3 stars into all Americans to keep up with that haul in Ann Arbor.

"This wasn't unexpected, but what the heck are they saying to these kids to get them to commit so quickly??? Never seen anything like it."

and followed by, "LTT makes it 8 for last year and this year so far, or what Bollman would call a good 5 year haul."

but then they return to form...(but I will admit, they do have more rational commenters than I expected)

"Who cares who they landed this weekend.  They need these O-Line recruits to have a prayer against the D-Line haul Ohio State has been landing.  Urban is a better recruiter and he's better on X's and O's.  Michigan can have the 2nd best recruiting, 2nd best coach, and 2nd best record every year.  We aren't playing for second."

Absolutely unREAL!

Do they even know that we now have Urban's old D coordinator?? Somebody should really tell them.  That's half of his x's and o's right there.

Also, I really enjoyed a tweet on TVHs page saying none of these recruits had offers from Ohio anyway, and he was immediately informed that in fact several of them had offers.  I don't think they even look at what is actually happening on the recruiting trail.  They just assume they're the best every year.  Uncontested champion of uninformed fanbases.

Welcome to the family guys (in order): Kyle, Wyatt, David, Jourdan, TACO,  Chris, Jake, and LTT.  My only question is this, has there ever been so many commits such a short span ever in the history of college sports.  The five fighting Sullivans are the only thing I can think of that comes close!!!

I think Hoke has changed the tide on the rivalry. Hell people in Ohio are starting to believe him. Never in a million years I would have thought that. Getting eight 4-stars to commit in one weekend is a good start.

This is a great article on Logan from Sam Web

http://www.detroitnews.com/article/20111222/OPINION03/112220439

and what is really extra great about it is if you page down to the bottom and people are giving positive and encouraging comments about Logan, and his mom posts a couple of times to thank people.  That is really nice to see in this day and age, the way the internet can be nasty....

4 offensive lineman already in this class....now that is what i love to see. 2 guards and 2 tackles. This OLINE haul is already better then last years and if we get Pocic it may be the best for any 2013 class this year. Hope we get him and can move Dawson or Fox to center.
