2017 Early Enrollees - who are you most excited to see?
January 3rd, 2017 at 3:53 PM ^
I completed the list.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:55 PM ^
Wait about three days and then send out the U-M directory-scouring WD bat signal.
EDIT: OP changed the thread title, so now I look like an idiot.

9/12...Hall is in...is Hawkins still an EE?
January 3rd, 2017 at 3:55 PM ^
Oh nice, Hall must've just got in today. So that's 9/12.
Hawkins is not an EE.

Electrical Engineer? He's going to love North Campus...

Jive Turkey eggs anywhere near North Campus. Those birds have a vicious history.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:05 PM ^
Dang it, I was hoping Hawkins was. He seems like a physical WR who could play in the slot from day 1.

It's true that he's an early enrollee.
If you're asking me if I know anything definitive, I don't. The people I talk to either haven't gotten confirmation from his camp or they are sworn to secrecy. Everything in the last month points to Michigan IMO, but the kid and his inner circle have played this really close to the vest and quiet. Gotta respect a mega talent that doesn't need the spotlight. I'd guess he's in Ann Arbor come Monday but it could go either way.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:22 PM ^
And yeah, i respect that a mega talent doesn't need to the spotlight. Howeva, it seems like in an attempt to avoid it at all costs, the situation seems to be thrusting him into the spotlight as a consequence.
Oh well...
January 3rd, 2017 at 3:40 PM ^
e.g., When will we have a final list of Early Enrollees?
That would avoid people logging in expecting to see a list of early enrollees, and then frustratingly find the post is only a question on a topic that has been discussed at least once in the past few days.
January 3rd, 2017 at 3:46 PM ^
I'm not annoyed though. What the hell else am I gonna do? Work? Pfffft!
January 3rd, 2017 at 3:55 PM ^
Thanks
January 3rd, 2017 at 3:45 PM ^
lets get down to brass tacks, who has the student directory?

I do. Give me your social security number. Give me your mothers maiden name. And first pets name. And I will send it over as long you give me your credit card number to charge you the low price of $19.99. /s
January 3rd, 2017 at 3:54 PM ^
I believe I read he is not going to EE. These guys are in the directory as of now: Jeter, Black, JKP, CMH, Mason, Ruiz, BSJ, Woods.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:00 PM ^
Hall is in as well

Cesar Ruiz - if he is able to start from day 1 it allows for Cole to move out to LT if there are other injuries or performance issues. DPJ / Ambry are 2A/2B....all 3 might play meaningful minutes in opener against Florida and be starting by time Michigan State comes to town.

I'd rather not have Cole at LT. I think another year in the same position would do him some good and he's already shown he can't handle anything above average on the outside. Puts a hard cap on the performance of your line, especially if you are adding in a true freshman center. If he is good enough to play as freshman I'd rather it be as a guard for a year.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:17 PM ^
No one player is more important than the Team....
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:19 PM ^
I think he probably came back with the understanding that he would play center. Otherwise, Cole would've just left for the NFL, I think. It'd be a dick move to move him to LT.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:30 PM ^
I think he is penciled in at center, but if he made the team better by playing LT (in a "pinch") would it be a dick move for him not to want to move outside? The greater good of the team I would think is most important. Long time before that is an issue and hopefully never comes to fruition....already looking forward to trip down to Texas.

Understand that in a perfect world Cole stays at Center, but if Newsome is not back and whomever breaks camp at LT struggles early (hopefully not the case)....flexibility comes with Ruiz being ready to contribute from day 1. We already know Coach is going to put best 5 out there no matter their age or past position. Perhaps if you had me answer this question in a week it would be Filiaga.

him returning for his Senior year was him getting better as a Center for the NFL. I think we should expect him at Center. If that does not happen it likely means bad things have happened.
Ruiz could see the field at Guard if we need to move Bredeson out to Tackle.
January 3rd, 2017 at 5:36 PM ^
Cesar Ruiz is a center that can pull. Which means he can play guard. Stop with the "Cole changing positions" Drevno even said he prefers him at C and that he wants his best OL-man at center. Idk why no one will quit with this stupid "mason will move.." no, no he won't.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:11 PM ^
1 - Ruiz is needed because we are thin upfront. I would love to see him at OG next year then move to center the following year.
2 - DPJ - If Jabrill is gone we need some high octane plays.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:19 PM ^
I most want Tufele and Filaga to commit.
That would be a huge relief and change our outlook in 2018 and beyond.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:56 PM ^
But Idk if there's still a shot there
January 3rd, 2017 at 9:40 PM ^
My aren't you picky.
Solomon isn't an EE if that helps.
January 3rd, 2017 at 4:45 PM ^
end of debate.
January 3rd, 2017 at 5:05 PM ^
If you are talking about:
- for 2017, it has to be Harris if he comes, and DPJ otherwise
- if you are talking about high need to develop quickly for 2018, I'd say Ruiz.
January 3rd, 2017 at 5:07 PM ^
I'm most excited to see your mom.
January 3rd, 2017 at 8:42 PM ^
At least someone is excited to see her.

Najee Harris, end thread.
Seeing him in this class would be AMAZING.
That said, DPJ will likely be my "favorite player" of the future. Love what that kid brings on and off the field. Can't wait to see him in a winged helmet.
But still, with all of the odds against us? Najee Harris should be who we ALL want to see in spring practice. Because that means we can have nice things.
January 3rd, 2017 at 5:13 PM ^
Doesn't class start tomorrow or do early enrollees have a different setup?
January 3rd, 2017 at 6:03 PM ^
(Just dropped my son off) but you can enroll/start up to the date that classes are closed to any new drops or adds. Apparently that's next week some time.
