Way too early Scout-300 for 2016 (Swenson)
http://recruiting.scout.com/story/1410626-the-scout-300-for-2016?s=73
Scout released its 2016 top-300. Erik Swenson is #86 and the only B1G commit in the top-100. Doesn't mean much at the moment, but its still nice.
Ben Bredeson comes in at #14 too, he'd be a very big get.
Here's a list of all the guys Michigan has offered:

There are a lot of big-time OL we are in good position with who come in high on that board.
Swenson was purported to be a 5* and shows up a good bit lower in the initial rankings. Reminds me of omg Ricardo Miller and Marvin Robinson both being 5* 'locks' early on
It might just be perception. But that happens a lot - guy who Michigan offers super early and has interest is a "5-star lock" and ends up being a standard 4-star or lower. This is pretty common. Sometimes you have Damien Harris and Jabrill Peppers, but even George Campbell is looking like a top-100 type, not a top-10.
George Campbell always looked like a top 100 guy, not a top 10 guy. You can't be a top 10 prospect if you're a receiver with questions surrounding him such as "Can he catch the football?" That's like expecting a noodle-armed quarterback or a 4.9 cornerback to be a top 10 prospect.
2016? I feel oooooooold.
Scout totally overhauled their layout and it still gives me a seizure. What a POS.
Now that I've gotten that off my chest, am I imagining things or did Greg Little have positive things to say about Michigan recently (i.e. plans to visit). Looks like we're in on a lot of top prospects.
The stupid thing is that not only is the layout just as bad (or worse), the pages take longer to load.
