Top Recruit that Could Have Turned The Table for Michigan Football?
Everyone once in a while I go back through Rival's database and look at some players who were once being recruited by Michigan and could have had a major impact if they would have committed to Michigan (e.g. Justin King, Taylor Mays, Nick Perry, etc.)
Today's Prospect: Brian Cushing. I dug up this little bit from an older article.
“It was disappointing because I was basically telling Michigan if they offered I was going to commit,” Cushing noted. “I just think they were not real sure about me.”
I can't imagine that we would have lost with him lining up next do David Harris in 06. Trying to debate what would be a better upgrade for the 06 Team
Cushing instead of Chris Graham or Justin King over Morgan Trent
Don't really remember how much Michigan interest he had, but he was a highly regarded recruit from OLSM.
Michigan was hot on his trail (he gave the coaches a silent commitment at one point), but FSU was always right there, and took him in the end.
He's been a huge disappointment for them.
Thanks!
