Hello Team 135/136
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:40 PM ^
Those dudes need to hit the training table.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:19 PM ^
Easy Magnus is going to be angry
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:24 PM ^
I'm more interested in what Mangus has to say
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:43 PM ^
He'd say those who stay will be champions
February 23rd, 2013 at 8:17 PM ^
freaking pic wasn't taken with a fisheye lens. WHat up wit dat?
February 23rd, 2013 at 9:02 PM ^
Walleye Vision....
February 23rd, 2013 at 10:33 PM ^
Click to see the original. It looks fine.
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:43 PM ^
Is there any explanation to the photo?
Note: I do not understand the twitter
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:41 PM ^
They all need to bulk up.
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:51 PM ^
Skinny recruits? Do we know who is in pic from left to right? Looks like Cole, Ferns and Harris wearing no. 1. Also, has Ferns unloaded any t-shirts?
February 23rd, 2013 at 8:14 PM ^
Names: Cole, Ferns, Hood, Speight, Harris, Campbell
Body language: Likely, Hell Yes, Hell No, Hell Yes, Yes, Yes
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:44 PM ^
Buckle up. Cue the Uptons.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:09 PM ^
Justin, BJ, or both?
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:44 PM ^
So we're still recruiting? After reading that other thread, I assumed we'd just drop football now that we don't have Jerry Montgomery.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:42 PM ^
I just naturally assumed this was from before the announcement.
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:45 PM ^
Let the speculation begin; is that #1 jersey a prototype?
/panic ensues
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:49 PM ^
At lease they didn't go blue numbers with the home uniforms. That's called progress. Congrats Adidas.
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:49 PM ^
Also it appears they have already given George Campbell the legends patch/ jersey. The god damn plane has crashed into the mountain!
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:17 PM ^
Her life was in your hands!
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:49 PM ^
Haha, it's a practice jersey.
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:47 PM ^
Take the HELLO out of the title of your post, hate you for that
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:05 PM ^
Would love large still, right when the two guys are flopping backwards, to frame for the basement.
February 23rd, 2013 at 8:16 PM ^
That would be an awesome picture. I like you will miss those runs, but what I won't miss is an overthrow on every 5 yard slant.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:25 PM ^
That is just priceless.
February 23rd, 2013 at 10:44 PM ^
What makes me sad about that run is that if UM had won, it would have been a legendary run in UM history I think. However, UM lost and it is a foot note in UM and Denard Robinson histroy.
February 23rd, 2013 at 11:07 PM ^
He's not human. He's like a piece of iron.
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:50 PM ^
Unless they all committed
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:52 PM ^
#1 JERSEY?!?!?!?!!?
Braylon won't be too happy about this....
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:22 PM ^
They just use it to get peoples hopes up. They really don't give it.
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:53 PM ^
That's Cole, Ferns, Hood, Speight, Harris, and Campbell. I figured I would say it now since I know it will be asked sometime in the thread.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:02 PM ^
I thought Harris and Campbell were tall, but Holy Speight!
February 23rd, 2013 at 6:53 PM ^
It has me a bit worried on how well Hoke and staff have been doing recruiting... Especially with the talent and depth that has been stock-piled on your O-Line. Once they get some experience, I am nervous what they, Morris, and Green will be able to accomplish versus opposing defenses.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:02 PM ^
Are you a fan of another team or what the hell are you talking about?
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:23 PM ^
I support your enemy, but I am not here to troll...
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:32 PM ^
We have many enemies bro....
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:41 PM ^
I am proud to say that I am a Buckeye. I enjoy coming to this site as the information makes me a more knowledgeable fan. You won't see me run my mouth or disrespect in anyway... I am legitimately nervous about your last recruiting class, though. Take all the big names and high school speedsters you want, but if you don't have the studs to block for them, they are not going to accomplish much. Your O-line is going to be beastly.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:49 PM ^
As a quick comment, I think it would be fair to say we can speculate much the same about the Buckeye d-line in the coming years.
February 23rd, 2013 at 8:07 PM ^
It is going to be fun to watch and I am looking forward to great match ups under Hoke and Meyer, especially with what happens in the trenches. My concern with the OSU d-line is that they have to grow up quickly, as each starter is getting replaced from last year. Although they have talent and are highly touted, they are not proven in college competition and the majority of the 2-deep will be sophomores. I am not too familiar with who UM returns on their o-line besides Lewan. Who are the other returnees? Are your linemen expected to come in and compete for starting positions right away?
February 23rd, 2013 at 10:09 PM ^
Returning starter: Schofield, probably RT. Rest of positions open, but consensus is that the 2013 guys will redshirt and your old friend Kyle Kalis will grab a spot.
February 23rd, 2013 at 11:10 PM ^
Thanks for the info, Brimley. I was never really big on the anti-Kalis mindset shared by most of the fan base. Did I want him to be a Buckeye... Yes. Did I want him to go to any other school besides UM... Also yes. Can I blame an 18 year old young man for choosing a great school and great football program... Not so much. I wish him the best but I hope he becomes well acquainted with Noah Spence and Adolphus Washington in the years to come!
February 24th, 2013 at 9:11 AM ^
RDT: is that you?
February 24th, 2013 at 11:07 AM ^
welcome here. You're right about our offensive line in the future I hope. Clearly though, with the talent both schools are building up right now, it's possible we'll see a return of the "Big Two" days again.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:50 PM ^
...the English?
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:02 PM ^
I'm going to nickname Speight the professor right now.
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:02 PM ^
Looks like Speight was brought to AA via yacht. He just needs a sweater on his shoulders
February 23rd, 2013 at 8:43 PM ^
Wilton 'The Harbor Master' Speight. I like it.
February 24th, 2013 at 12:32 AM ^
Wilton
A) The Sextant
B) The Shroud
C) The Spinnaker
D) Starboard (bc he's a righty)
Speight
February 24th, 2013 at 4:25 AM ^
Is the name Wilton not yacht club-y enough on its own??
February 23rd, 2013 at 7:11 PM ^
Here is the photo scaled proportionately...
Cole definitely looks more like his Rivals reported 6'5" and 275 lbs. now. Speight will definitely make it seem like Michigan is building skyscrapers on offense - 6'6'' will allow him to see the field well, not to mention most of the seats behind whichever end zone we're approaching.
