Man...remember how excited everyone was for that offensive line class?
Now its just Kugler and Dawson and neither has started a game going into their 5th year (at least as far as I can remember).

February 2012 saw the commitments of Jourdan Lewis, Taco Charlton, Khalid Hill, & Jake Butt. Two All-Americans & 3 All-Big Ten players. Gareon Conley, Mike McCray, and DeVeon Smith committed in early March 2012. Ben Gedeon in April 2012.
And I wouldn't close the book on those guys yet, especially Kugler who played a little this year.
December 12th, 2016 at 1:58 PM ^
So that part turned out well.
December 12th, 2016 at 2:18 PM ^
2013 defense recruits: Jourdan Lewis, Taco Charlton, Ben Gedeon, Channing Stribling, Delano Hill, Dymonte Thomas, Maurice Hurst, & Mike McCray. And that is leaving out Gareon Conley who was committed for most of the year until Urban Meyer showed up.
The 2013 offense was pretty rough outside of Jake Butt unfortunately. Also included De'Veon Smith & Khalid Hill. Such a huge contrast between the success on defense vs the non-contributors/transfers on offense.
2013 offense: Shane Morris, Derrick Green, Patrick Kugler, Kyle Bosch, Logan Tuley-Tillman, David Dawson, Chris Fox, Henry Poggi, Wyatt Shallman, Jaron Dukes, Csont'e York, Da'Mario Jones, Dan Samuelson

If you would like an explanation of why the 2016 Defense was exceptional and the 2016 offense was just ok, look no further.
Is there any chance we can hire Hoke as Defensive recruiting coordinator? He is amazing at it.

December 12th, 2016 at 2:45 PM ^
FWIW, Kugler started at LG against Hawaii
December 12th, 2016 at 1:28 PM ^
Man this could be an amazing week!
December 12th, 2016 at 1:28 PM ^
Our ranking should skyrocket after that haul!

High. Very high. The tining is not coincidence.
December 12th, 2016 at 1:47 PM ^
What are we tining? OHHHHH timing.
December 12th, 2016 at 1:56 PM ^
Saucy! haha

Looking at 24/7 Crystal Ball picks:
DPJ - 93%
Black - 95%
Wilson - 76%
Ruiz - 100%
Multiply them all together and you get 67.1%
If you look at the 24/7 prediction graph, you get this:
DPJ - 80%
Black - 90%
Wilson - 70%
Ruiz - 95%
Multiply them all together and you get 47.9%
So somewhere between 48% and 67% - sounds about right!

That math is only accurate if you assume each committment is an independent event. If there are positive (or negative) relationships between the committments, then the chances could be higher (or lower.) Since these are mostly different positions, I don't think there would be any negative relationshios. But if getting one recruit excites a later recruit or if the spacing of the announcement dates were planned, then there would be positive relationships.

Welp, that tears it.
December 12th, 2016 at 2:00 PM ^
Man, I wish Harris was the guy to the left of Harbaugh.
December 12th, 2016 at 2:17 PM ^
They just give away Jordan jackets all willy nilly? If they were at the airport, I assume he didn't have to give it back. Was that picture taken in the area on the other side of TSA where you need a ticket to access?
December 12th, 2016 at 2:32 PM ^
December 12th, 2016 at 4:52 PM ^
Great picture and very cool message.

December 12th, 2016 at 1:33 PM ^
at this point I tend to think it is not a coincidence. This is Harbaugh and the recruits looking to dominate a whole week of the news cycle (I hope).

This is shaping up to be an incredible week. We want all the "Hello:" posts prepared!!
December 12th, 2016 at 1:37 PM ^
The next 2 weeks are shaping up to possibly be ridiculously awesome and I officially have no idea what to do with my hands.

The only other school I imagine could be a threat here is UGA since he just had an official there this weekend, but I feel like our chances here are very good. It'll be interesting to see what the insiders have to say about this one.
December 12th, 2016 at 1:45 PM ^
Come on down Aubrey Solomon.
