Crystal Balls not looking good regarding Mr. Solomon

That's not a surprise

$$$$$ and ho's will do it all the time with recruits

This has been known for awhile now ...coaches knew

 

Two reasons that could not be overcome

One look at the recently updated depth charts by class and there is a huge hole behind Mone and Hurst. Same can be said for OG... Seems to go against the logic that champion teams are built from the inside out.

Damn! Too bad to lose him, but not a huge surprise and hard to call this a miss as the deck always seemed stacked against M from the start. They need a nose tackle type and seems options are getting thin, will be interesting to see that play out.

is hurting our recruiting. So is Purdue's new head coach. Not sure how, but that's what my parrot told me.

And he doesn't like cold weather:

Side note: Solomon doesn’t like cold weather. He said it makes his joints stiff. He’s originally from California. He said he believes he could endure the cold weather in Michigan, but did bring up a fear of sub-zero temperatures.

Also mentioned he won't be deciding on signing day (may be into March).  He ain't coming.  'Bama gets another.

 

is the longer Bama stays loaded, the longer they keep OSU away from the title. For as good as OSU has been in the last decade, they have only won it all once....and on a fluke.

I don't know that you can call Soloman a "miss" as it's hard to think what they could have done differently other than the staffer who didn't take him out of a thank you letter excel sheet. NT recruiting for '17 could be a miss but we can't say that until signing day and really won't know for a year or two. I'm higher on the OTs already committed than most but getting a Filiaga would be big. Anyone else wonder how much impact the recruiting numbers are having on M? I'm sure other schools are saying "they already have a ton of OL/DL" in selling early playing time. Harbaugh and his staff absolutely needed to get more big bodies but that may be a side effect.

We are going full court press on Tufele and Austin Jackson and believe we have Gay if he qualifies.  

 

Reminds me a lot of last year, a few guys we thought we had fizzle out, we land the #1 recruit and a combination of the above mentioned, to go along with one guy NO ONE is talking about.

The 0.01% get richer.  Bama is just filthy rich.

I never expected him to come back. Good luck, but UM will figure something out.

This is huge because the only other DT Michigan is recruiting is Tufele, and I personally doubt he will come to Michigan. So at a position of need we will most likely strike out this year. Next year we need an instant impact DT now

Have fun sitting on the bench 3 years and receiving limited coaching up for the pros. For all the draft picks Bama has their percentage of NFL difference makers is pretty bad.

Could OSU take Tufele and Marvin Wilson? It sounded like they were one of the leaders for Wilson yesterday on the UAAA game. Pretty sad when we have to hope that Bama and OSU don't have room in their class for our top targets.
