Game changer at the position. He could step in and start immediately next year after Kinnel leaves.
Welcome to the family, my good man.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:12 PM ^
This is a good thing that makes me happy. Go Blue!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:13 PM ^
This has got to help in regards to Harrison.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:18 PM ^
Yea but doesn't THE WifeBeaterEnabler University have like a ton of other 5*s he could play with?
Shit, I hope he doesn't see this.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:13 PM ^
HOLYFUCKINSHIT!!!!!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:14 PM ^
Well, my daughter and I were at the tunnel entrance and she made sure to yell his name along with other recruits. The lady next to us and her daughter made signs as well. Pretty much, we were the ones that got Dax Hill to commit. No big deal.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:20 PM ^
But did you tweet at him? That’s what really counts.
September 19th, 2018 at 9:20 AM ^
Calling recruits on their cellphone has always worked for me in the past.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:47 PM ^
Thank you!!! Be sure to be there when Zach Harrison is visiting, also!!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:16 PM ^
HUGE
Go Blue
September 18th, 2018 at 8:16 PM ^
I believed.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:18 PM ^
Hopefully this shows other five star targets that they could build something special with this class at U of M. I have good feelings about karlaftis with Purdue’s start to the season, and with Harrison delaying his commitment from before his high school season until after, that is good for Michigan, bad for OSU. It could come down to beating PSU on the field to secure his commitment. Ford and crouch are longer shots at this point, it’s just we never see top rated wideouts from Cali going anywhere other than USC, but we aren’t out of it yet. Cine could really help solidify the safety position with daxton.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:23 PM ^
Rarely does a single game matter to a recruit. More important than beating Penn State is winning the Big 10, because that’s the knock against Michigan/Harbaugh.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:34 PM ^
Meh maybe the case. But I don’t think it would hurt to beat them specifically. Like I think if we beat OSU and penn state but got upset two other games and didn’t represent the big ten east, it would be better than losing to penn state but winning the east on some other team beating them.

Karlaftis--Oddly, I think he's more likely to stick with Purdue because the concern was that Brohm is a flight risk with a good season.
Harrison--No idea. Posters on here think it's PSU if it's not OSU based on what some recruiting folks say. I think Michigan has a great shot at him.
Ford--I thought he was all USC, but their terrible season, in my opinion, puts Helton on the hot seat. Also, he's competing against a 5-star WR who is playing with his former high school QB. If he actually gets on campus, I could see it happening.
Cine--From what I'm reading, he's all UGA. But again, a strong season could change the narrative. Michigan is getting negatively recruited on their performance, I think.
September 19th, 2018 at 6:50 AM ^
I still can't see any reason for a top 4/5 star sticks with purdue.
If they turnaround and have a good year brohm is gone so why go?
If they have a bad year, they are purdue, so why go as they will probably be bad/mediocre the next few years also?
Maybe they hired some 5 star bagman formerly from ole miss???
September 19th, 2018 at 8:33 AM ^
"Concerns" noted. However, Hill's commitment is guaranteed to pique the interest of these elite, uncommitted recruits-and some committed ones too. The timing and magnitude of this event is significant. It will be most interesting going forward. I see Ford as being the farthest out there.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:21 PM ^
Excellent. Been sick all day so this was some good news to finish on. Huge pick up.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:22 PM ^
Fuuuuuuckkkkkkk Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:22 PM ^

September 18th, 2018 at 8:26 PM ^
GREAT! GREAT! GREAT!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:26 PM ^
This - and the add in the sidebar guarantees I can meet my dream girl. All on the same day!
I wonder if she'll stick with me after she realizes I'd dump her to get M commits from Harrison, Cine and Ford (or really, even just one of them).
September 18th, 2018 at 8:30 PM ^
Just got this news over BR notification. Not even gonna lie, did a jumping fist pump...the future is bright, gentlemen. GO BLUE!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:31 PM ^

September 18th, 2018 at 8:51 PM ^
Holy shit, that's awesome!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:54 PM ^
I have no idea what I'm watching, but I can't stop doing so.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:44 PM ^
Wow. Great to add another player with speed.
He just chose a world-class education in the best college town in America.
Go Blue.
September 18th, 2018 at 8:45 PM ^

September 18th, 2018 at 8:49 PM ^
This is awesome. Welcome to the M family young man. Go Blue!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:49 PM ^
Poor Pete Finebaum is going to be apoplectic!! And who cares? Who gives a damn?
September 18th, 2018 at 8:49 PM ^
Holy shiiiiiit!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:55 PM ^
His video reminds me a little bit of Ed Reed ,we can only hope he turns out to be anywhere near Ed
I think hes a 3 year starter
September 18th, 2018 at 8:57 PM ^
I watched some of his highlight film.....2 words: Closing. Speed. He gots it. He comes downhill on running plays as fast and aggressive as you’ll see in high school. And oh boy, he lights ‘em up!
September 18th, 2018 at 8:58 PM ^
Sweet!
September 18th, 2018 at 9:10 PM ^
This kid is an elite talent and will see the field next year, huge get. This 2019 class is is a nice mix of skilled players and heavy o line. We will have the talent, just need the system and coaching to match. Love it
September 18th, 2018 at 9:14 PM ^
Wow, this is a f****** HUGE get for us!!!
September 18th, 2018 at 9:16 PM ^
He's so good we'll only be playing one safety next year. Awesome!
September 18th, 2018 at 9:23 PM ^
The next Chuck Wood? His tape says maybe. Better instincts than Peppers.
