There was another survey but I think it was completely different. This one is new to me, at least.
February 13th, 2013 at 5:39 PM ^
oh yep you're right. my bad.
February 13th, 2013 at 5:36 PM ^
The overwhelming support of the alternate jerseys is interesting. GAME. BRANDON.

Do you like Hoke's no-visit policy?
Yes --14
No -- 3
In between -- 5
Point, Hoke.

I have no opinion on Hoke's no-visit policy, but isn't this survey a little biased? Presumably the majority of people who don't like his no-visit policy decided not to come to Michigan -- thus their answer wasn't based on this result.
Although it would never happen, I'd be a lot more interested to see a survey of the top-100 targets (not commits) that Michigan was in on and see how they felt about the no-visit policy (and uniformz, etc). Might be interesting to see what factors steer kids away from Michigan too.

Tie with Mattison for favoite non-Hoke recruiter! He does remind of Mattison only faster and with a cool mustache.

Good evening, old friend. Would you like a cookie?
February 13th, 2013 at 7:32 PM ^
Per Fred Jackson, Greg Mattison has the coaching ability of Vince Lombardi and the charisma of Fred Jackson. Sounds like we have a good one!

hadn't seen this yet. thanks!

Washington being on there really surprises me. Also, nobody mentioned the Spartans.

I guess Dantonio was serious when he said he wasn't concered with mere earthlings. INTERGALACTIC RECRUITING BABY!

needs to die.
February 14th, 2013 at 2:02 AM ^
We need to lay it in the weeds
February 14th, 2013 at 4:54 AM ^
It is immortal, like the great Xenu.
February 13th, 2013 at 5:45 PM ^
It strikes me as odd that only one recruit thought they would end up at Michigan at the start of their recruiting process.
February 13th, 2013 at 7:27 PM ^
February 13th, 2013 at 8:23 PM ^
Hmmm, I wonder who that one recruit could have been...

nice to see thoes big schools trying to get our players.

important points:
sell the coaches/academics/family atmosphere
recruit the player and parents then the coach
hire nick saban
do we know how much post recruiting research the universities do both with their commits and their misses?
i want to poll every fast receiver over 6 feet tall that turned michigan down
February 13th, 2013 at 6:12 PM ^
The fact that only 1 player (presumably shane) thought he'd end up at Michigan at the beginning of their process just goes to show how deep a hole our couple year stretch put us in terms of recruiting. It is also a testament to how great our staff is at selling themselves and our program.
February 13th, 2013 at 6:16 PM ^
at least 3 years
LC was mailing it in at end in addition to the unmitigated ineptitude of RR.

"Ohio State, every game, every Saturday."
Who do you think said that?
I gotta believe that was Morris too.

I'm happy that the Wolverines got six players who thought they were going to Ohio and two who thought they were going to MSU. Also, the six players who were the most impressed with Fred Jackson have made it obvious why he has been kept on the staff through the coaching changes.
Most of all, though, I want to know which player wants to play Ohio 12 times a year. The team could use about 84 more of him.
February 13th, 2013 at 8:29 PM ^
Sounds like Shane would say that.
February 13th, 2013 at 9:16 PM ^
I'm guessing both UVA references are for Green. Seems like he thought he'd go there at first and they still really tried to get him late (despite not making his top 3)
I suppose Poggi may also make sense (geographically) but I'd bet it's talking about Green

I thought he was known as a dynamite recruiter but only one recruit mentioned him in the impressive recruiter category
February 14th, 2013 at 6:43 AM ^
He is the primary recruiter for all of the guys currently in the 2014 class
