A lot of people have Marshon Lattimore as the number 1 player in Ohio, with reports of him sitting alone at Ohio's FNL event thiis could be big for Michigan.
Erick Smith is also a 4 star safety at a position of need for us
Hopefully Frank Clark and Willie Henry put the full court press on the younger Tarblooders
EDIT: looks like 2015 WR/CB Trevon Story is with them
@TomVH: Grenville receiver RT @__Trevon: On my way to Michigan”
two up would it cause a meltdown on both blogs
Logic is but one of their accomplishments.
The caption under the picture read: "Refreshment stand at county fair, central Ohio."
told Bucknuts that on his last visit to Michigan, Hoke called him by the wrong first name and that turned him off of wanting to commit. Just what I remember reading.
You've been calling her Indiana?
I think they're taking about Tom. But that was RR, wasn't it?
Edit: too slow, and wrong too. Oops.
There's always some great quotes there. I'll pick this one as my favorite:
"I would put "0" confidence in the verbal commitment 5* George Campbell. He is an out of state talent, that lives so far away, I doubt he stays committed to TTUN, in the end I think he ends up staying south, just probably caught up in the moment."
all i see there in the comments is one ohio a*shole who will not accept the fact that there is no way in hell RR would have gone 11-2 two years ago.
To be fair, there is a decent bit of insight as well:
Urban once remarked that a mediocre coach can win a NC with great players but a great coach can not win a NC with mediocre players. (Urban was talking about the importance of recruiting) if you subscribe to this theory of Urban Meyer's, then hoke should be considered a NC contender based on the recruits he's been getting.
Brady Hoke once sold me an umbrella in the middle of the Sahara Desert and I felt damned good about that purchase.
you should. that shade must have been awesome with the sun beating down on you in the middle of nowhere.
Brady Hoke sold Michigan jerseys in Ohio, and they sold like hotcakes.
He then proceeded to turn the tide in the rivalry.
Once sold a car to Bill Brasky, at sticker price.
Would be a fair trade, I think.
I would take Lattimore over Webb in an instant. Not a fair trade. Both have electronic 40 times from combines: Lattimore was 4.48, while Webb was 4.68. Lattimore is more expolsive and has a couple inches on Webb. Webb was measured at 5'10 at The Opening, not the 5'11 or 6'0 he's sometimes listed at.
I thought Lattimore was more of an offensive recruit. Has he expressed a preference for defense?
He literally just said he's 5'10, which is 4 inches shorter than I am and I never even got an offer. Granted I've never played organized football.
So you also ran a 4.48 40 and won the MVP at the Best of the Midwest Combine?
yes.
Watch and see.
I saw somewhere that he was sitting alone at one of the FNL events. How does Ohio fuck up that bad?
Before we read too much into that not everyone has a personality that is super outgoing. There are people out there - even football players - who are quiet, shy, introspective, etc. So that could be Lattimore. If you watch his interviews he is not gregarious. Doesnt mean a thing on the football field but just like Lewan is super outgoing and Schofield you never here a peep out of, it would be nice to have that tandem in Peppers (oozes charisma) and Lattimore (quiet assassin). But getting to your point dont read too much into it - we just assume every football player is rah rah type of personality.
