Welcome aboard young man.
seems small for CB - slot WR? returner? or slot CB?
5'10" - is that what Jourdan Lewis ultimately measured at?

Seems more CB size.
From 247 (emphasis added)
"I just want to see what it's like there how the players live and stuff like that," Couch recently told 247Sports analyst Andrew Ivins. "I just want to see what they do on a day-to-day basis and the education. I'm talking a lot with [defensive coordinator Don Brown]. He loves me. He tells me that I'm the No. 1 corner on his board all the time."
A redshirt year and some cheeseburgers may be in his future.
I think you mean Chick-Fil-A.
Eat more Chikn.
Welcome to The Couch!
May you be the one Couch sparties can't burn.
Well played
What does Coach Brown tell the next corner we're recruiting ?
Will the truth work?
Don can keep saying it.
Technically aren't you on the board until you sign a letter of intent?
Is the board a legal document?
Yeah, the truth does work. This staff has been very open (with the team) about where people stand. I think athletes appreciate that. They get that someone has to be #1, and like most people, they'd prefer to know exactly what they're dealing with and exactly what they need to do to improve.
If I were a recruit, I'd prefer a school that openly ranked their players and recruits over one that said some obvious lie like we think all our players are equally good, or a school that refused to share their opinions.
As we all know well, Jourdan Lewis is way too small for the NFL . . .
I guess they wouldn’t be the Lions if they did things that make sense.
In any event, welcome aboard!!!!’ Can’t wait to see your first pick in the Big House!!!! Go Blue!!!!!!!
5'10 is totally fine for a CB
Agreed. 247 profile has him at 147lbs I believe. That looks like Terry Richardson size. If he is gonna stay at CB, he is going to habe to gain 20lbs at least.
From his film, he certainly looks comfortable living in a WR's hip pocket. seems perfect for us, nice pickup
Sounds like a great cover guy (haven't watched his film yet). but someone please get this guy some chik-fil-a. 148 lbs?
At least that's what he's telling people.
rivals says 165, 247 says 148. hopefully it's just not updated. Still on the small side.
Camp season hasn't started yet so I'm taking the 247 weight as an old number.
Jourdan was playing at a listed 175 and topped out around 185 so he's not far off that mark. Obviously can't project him to be an All-American before he starts his senior year of HS but that is a recent size comp that worked out just fine in this defense.
And probably not even in 2019, so he has plenty of time to bulk up before we need him on the field.
some guys don't bulk up. see Terry Richardson or Drake Harris. hopefully that's not the case here.
With a college weight and nutrition program, if a kid doesn’t bulk up it’s vecause that kid isn’t working hard. It is physically impossible to train the way they do, eat the way they do and not bulk up if someone wanted to bulk up. Hitting the weights with a kick arse strength coach + pounding your body with protein= weight gain.
own a Chik-Fil -A.
Just a 4-star? Cripes! We are NEVER going to beat Ohio state again if we can’t bring in 5-star talent! #Maizened
He will be dropped to a 3 star soon. We can't recruit anymore. Just read the board.
The next Terry Richardson.
Yikes man...
At 148 lbs he would still beat the crap out of you, internet guy who trashes teenagers.
Wasn't he something like 5'7"?
Terry Richardson probably has to be the biggest flop in Michigan recruiting of the last 10 years. I beleive he was our highest rated, or at least top 3 rated, recruit for the class, and I don't think he saw anything but mop up duty.
On this kid’s hello post. I know that was not your intention but you are giving credence to @sshole who did.
I get ya, but I have no problem if someone wants to rip Terry Richardson as a Michigan player (objectively looking at his performance and making a fair analysis...even if it is not positive). Doesn't look good, but they have that right. As a player he was a tremendous let down.
Furthermore, as I type this, Terry Richardson is laughing all the way to the bank. He got a FREE 4 year degree from one of the Nations leading Public insitutions. That is what is most important. Give my kid a free 4 year degree to Michigan and you can rip him all day long on a random message board. LOL
And if someone wants to rip him on a lookback of the 2012 recruiting class or past DBs - fine. But the @sshole above used Richardson to $hit on a 17 year old kid that just committed to Michigan.
True dat. I agree. Wrong place to right said post.
How many stars were you as a football recruit? How much of his gold did you watch? Did you interview him? Call his references? If not, Stop being a d-bag and accept that our coaches see something in the kid that they Value. Love the fact that he chose to wear the Maize and Blue. If you can’t, burn your fan gear and go buy a green or red shirt and be wmbrassed by their crap cultures. If not, Man up and support or team.
Do you think you are being funny or something? Don’t need pieces of garbage like you on this site.
It's a good thing you've commented so infrequently over the past decade.
They're some real dickheads in this fanbase.
richardson wad still a better at football than you’ll ever be at anything in your pathetic life. except being a useless troll; you’re elite at that
Weird thing is when you Google his name, there is a picture and statement below the 247 link that lists him at 6'0 160. his face looks older than the picture after you click the link where it also lists him at 5'9.5 148 but the dreads are about the same length.
I want whichever version Don Brown has at the top of his board.
That is GOOD perspective. If Don Brown finds him capable, I don't care if he is 4'9" and 79lbs.
I want that guy on the offensive side of the ball, personally. Our rivals laughed when we gave him a scholarship, but we'll see who's laughing when Wheatley, Jr. picks up Lillipute McTiny in the end zone and throws him 50 feet in the air to catch an uncontestable ball over and over for endless free touchdowns. Checkmate, Urban.
All of the south florida DB’s pls
From his film he's like a nat just keeps buzzing around the receiver and he sure seems to like to play Man which Don Brown will love and seems physical for his size
Knat
