Doesn't think kindly on Iowa RBs.

IIRC Iowa's class size is around 20.
He looks good! Tough to bring down, very shifty and can catch the ball.
January 31st, 2015 at 11:16 AM ^
...all running backs

I believe Higdon is their only RB commit (although you're spot on here - 20 RBs seems like an Iowa move), and in a seemingly un-Ferentz move, they've got 3-4 WRs in the class too so far, or so I last read. The notion of them perhaps not pitching it to a TE on at least every third play makes me wonder what is going on down there.

20 running backs, and a converted Tight End will still be getting all the carries by November.
Jim Harbaugh, you are a cold man for taking RB's from Iowa. Of course, you probably just saved this kid from a career full of injuries.

He has an offer from Dartmouth - I assume that the Ivy Leagues may bend admissions for athletes, but not drastically. He must be smart.

If I remember from the other thread, he got a 1450 on the SAT without the writing portion. That alone is legit.

I'm lowering my crystal ball to 49%

Lowered is ok, deflated is another story.
January 31st, 2015 at 10:57 AM ^
I remember the thread about him from the other day. Congrats!
You think UM has a decent shot here? Especially considering that Iowa has been going nowhere over the past few years.

he's got a decent offer sheet. Getting him on campus would seal it: Ann Arbor vs. Iowa City is an easy decision.

Congrats on getting your player an offer!
I would recommend linking to the previous thread you wrote on his background and maybe even cutting and pasting the data abut his background into the OP of this post since you have a personal connection.
January 31st, 2015 at 1:48 PM ^
You must be proud.
January 31st, 2015 at 11:00 AM ^
Nervous? I'd say the Iowa staff is probably wetting themselves about now.

Everyone in the Big Ten has treated Michigan like shit the last seven or eight years. It's time for Michigan to start returning a lot of favors.

There was a lot of negative recruiting against us during Rich Rod's tenure.

Don't forget a 3 star from the south is the same as a 4-5 from the midwest.

With that kind of academic record, though, I'm surprised he ever decided on Iowa. They're not terrible, but even my current grad school classmates say they regret having gone there because of the lack of academic prestige.
January 31st, 2015 at 11:50 AM ^
He has to be in Ann Arbor and back home by Sunday night per rules.
January 31st, 2015 at 1:37 PM ^
Yessirrrr.....
January 31st, 2015 at 11:50 AM ^
Right after he got the offer he said he wasnt coming to Michigan and was sticking with his commitment to Iowa. Even with Harbaugh there is a struggle to get guys to come to michigan who have been committed to other schools for a while.
