Hello:Ben Braden, 1 year ago today
Perhaps not board-worthy, but I thought it interesting to note that a year ago today Michigan got its first 2012 commit, and by this time in 2013 we're already more than halway done with this class. Really highlights the speed with which this class has been built.

Insane that we were so excited about him, and if he committed today it would almost be an afterthought. Crazy.
March 24th, 2012 at 12:07 PM ^
I would still be pretty excited
March 24th, 2012 at 11:37 AM ^
Recruiting has gone well for the past year

I saw Hello: and got excited.

Braden is maybe my favorite recruit from the 2012 class. Not highly rated, but I think he's going to be a mauler for us.
Yep. Been pretty painful for both as of late.

Amazing how much things can change in a year
March 24th, 2012 at 12:05 PM ^
but some of this is a nationwide shift. Commitments have been happening earlier and earlier every year for like a decade.

Oh, this is for 2012 recruit --
Still excited to see Big Ben in M uniform. He will be great on and off the field for 4 years!

And was like, what up Mr Isaac! Calling in a commit to UM live from Pasadena would be awesome. All u need after that is call-ins from Poggi, Vanderdoes, Cravens, and Treadwell. Dreaming this early in the day is hazardous to your health!

Looks like a class that you have on NCAA Football 12 on XBOX
March 24th, 2012 at 12:40 PM ^
in the midst of our 2013 mania, to remind us of the guys we were so excited about way back when who are actually almost here! (Including the three early birds already in pads and wings.)
March 24th, 2012 at 12:45 PM ^
Look at his tapes. I wonder if this guy will be any good
....Nah!

This guy doesn't look very good. If he does get drafted, it probably won't be until 6th or 7th round
He's 7th on the depth chart when he starts at UM
(true story, but I am not sure who else he was behind, besides Griese and Dreisbach)

Lol I remember how paniced most people where that we had 0 commits 366 days ago. Last year was really the first year I went hardcore on recruiting news.
This is an important anniversary. The first recruit in Hoke's first full recruiting class. Also the start of a 10 year run of highly rated classes that helped Michigan win three national championships. Nice job getting it started, Ben.

Last year we were worried if the recruits would stay around and just wanted to maintain. Now look at were we are 1 year later. WOW WEEEEEEEE
Our coaching staff is the coolest...just wanted to say that
If peeing your pants is cool, consider me Miles Davis
