Congrats to Jahmere irvin-sills committing to Michigan
No confirmation from any sites and Irvin-Sills reportedly has no offer from Michigan (or interest) on ESPN/Scout/Rivals. 3-star concensus CB in the 2013 class.

Stay tuned on this one.

Don't know anything about this guy, seems like a bit of a flier. Has some decent offers in there though (Auburn, Tennessee, UCLA). Never hurts to have CB depth.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:22 AM ^
Well, he is the #36-ranked CB prospect according to Rivals, FWIW. If accurate, that's a pretty solid recruit.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:24 AM ^
Looks like he was committed to Auburn before decommitting about a month back...
February 4th, 2013 at 4:08 PM ^
Is that Jon Favreau?!
February 4th, 2013 at 12:04 PM ^
Plus, he has dreads. Which we all know makes him faster.
February 4th, 2013 at 3:32 PM ^
Considering the one right above it.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:07 AM ^
He has a solid offer sheet. Congratulations to him if this is true.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:07 AM ^
and why should we believe him?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:09 AM ^
USC commit and he is teammates with Irvin-Sills. Like I said, this is just off the Twitter-verse so far.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:09 AM ^
Is he on a MLK trip today?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:37 AM ^
Maybe a different trip—it's Rosa Parks Day in California.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:16 AM ^
If so, we are going super heavy on DBs this cycle.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:18 AM ^
Would rather save the spot for the 2014 class. That class is shaping up to be smaller, and you can always find a random 3-star CB to fill a spot. This one doesn't make much sense.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:19 AM ^
but it will likely be 20 or more.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:23 AM ^
I understand the thought, but it seems like almost every year the class is shaping up to be "smaller." By the time signing days rolls around it almost always seems to have ballooned up to 22-23 at least.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:36 AM ^
What bothers me, though, is that every year the coaches do these things. It is almost like they know things we don't and then act on that knowledge. I wish they would consult us more often.
February 4th, 2013 at 12:46 PM ^
It really would be more considerate, wouldn't it? Darn those coaches!
February 4th, 2013 at 11:23 AM ^
We have this conversation every year. If this guy really is a commit, just because "I Like Burgers" hasn't heard of him doesn't make him "random." If the coaches offered him, the coaches wanted him. If the coaches wanted him, they likely have their reasons. It's not like we have to pass on Dashawn Hand because we got a 3-star CB.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:28 AM ^
In almost no circumstance is banking a scholarship a good idea. Bring in a kid you think is good now and worry about next year next year.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:54 AM ^
it seems like we would be better off banking the scholly and evening out the classes a bit.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:22 AM ^
Jourdan Lewis to WR?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:26 AM ^
I was pushing for this move before today, so if we get another corner I really hope he does.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:22 AM ^
Jourdan Lewis to WR?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:32 AM ^
After a second thought - that could be a possibility.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:39 AM ^
The more CB's you have the easier that moves becomes- the staff seems to really want to have a lot of depth at CB. Not sure you can say another CB means a likely move to WR for Lewis- but I would think whatvere that chances of a move are they got a lot higher if this news is true (but a lot higher could still very easily mean very unlikely still)
February 4th, 2013 at 1:26 PM ^
I could see Michigan wanting this guy, but telling him to wait for signing day to make the comittment so that it won't scare any of the other already comitted cornerbacks away OR getting him to commit would leave a little door open for Lewis to make a switch to WR if need be.
I say let's take him!
February 4th, 2013 at 11:17 AM ^
I'm sorta surprised we'd offer another CB.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:26 AM ^
I'm guessing it means there's a decent chance that Jourdan Lewis pulls a Reverse Zion Babb.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:18 AM ^
Is this for football or basketball?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:21 AM ^
FB its says CB in the body of the post (Corner Back).
February 4th, 2013 at 11:22 AM ^
Basketball. His position is Center Big-Fella (CB)
February 4th, 2013 at 11:23 AM ^
One tweet doesn't seem like much to go on.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:25 AM ^
Which is why we're waiting for confirmation from someone other than Rodgers. It's worth noting, however.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:30 AM ^
One tweet, an MGoBoard post and over 25 comments in 28 minutes!
February 4th, 2013 at 11:57 AM ^
Why on earth would anyone be paying attention to recruting right now?
I have decided that we need to do this at least once a week. It will keep the "read twitter, search youtube, copy and paste" recruiting analysts busy and enrich their lives.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:23 AM ^
Why is it everytime I hear a player with a hyphenated last name I think they are really good?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:27 AM ^
...serial killers...
February 4th, 2013 at 11:29 AM ^
Dude is a bigtime playmaker.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:25 AM ^
Any opinion?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:32 AM ^
you mean "what's" your opinion.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:49 AM ^
Reminds me of Terrence Talbott.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:25 AM ^
I love our class but if there was a spot id like to take one more its DLine or CB..and this kid is from a power HS which is good to get for many reasons and he has good offers..He seemed to be leaning to Clemson so i would have no problem if this is true..screw the wait and use it next yr approach..things happen and we will worry about next year next year..use the schollys and bring in competitve kids..hope its true.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:27 AM ^
I wonder If his friend got Michigan mixed up with Mississippi? He visited Miss. St a couple of weeks ago and has an offer from Ole Miss.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:30 AM ^
Damn you auto correct?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:33 AM ^
I think Treadwell had a similar problem!
February 4th, 2013 at 11:33 AM ^
According to a trusty old friend of this blog Rodgers has confirmed he meant Michigan
February 4th, 2013 at 11:29 AM ^
Has he been hanging out with Teo?
February 4th, 2013 at 11:37 AM ^
mod should edit the OP.
February 4th, 2013 at 11:38 AM ^
Done...mod can edit further, if needed.
