247 has updated rankings
Sing Sing Sign
The Big House? So they're saying Keith Jackson didn't coin it?!?
Very nice. That is funny...and true
Nice simile brute,
such a glaring sign of weakness it's almost announcing itself through harmonic vocalizations.

Making meaning out of your non -editable auto-correct gibberish since....now!
composite average now over .9
higher than the 2016 class at the moment
Gonna go up even higher. Im betting Turner, All, Thomas, and McNamara AT LEAST get rankings bumps.
Charbonnet will play from the get-go. We haven't had a back as good as him since Hart. Him and Gray will provide a very nice thunder and lightning combo for 3-4 years.
Have you read anything about his blocking? That's usually what holds back freshman RBs.
I wish there was a way to see class rankings based only on 247 rankings instead of the composite.
It's the little number below the big number on the left under "rank".
Omg wishes do some true
Here is 247 rankings in list form: LINK
Whoa how did you get there?
Just remove the word “composite” from the url so it reads: https://247sports.com/Season/2019-Football/TeamRankings/
Can't believe how much better our class just got!!!
Haha. I like it when UM pulls in high ranked recruits just as much as the next person but this is so true. Re rankings and kids dropping in rankings because “they didn’t camp”. It is just a hilarious waste of time to get worked up over this stuff.
Yes. like was said in the article last week, Hinton didn't Camp so he fell. Him working on playing football instead of showing off means he's not as good
This is exciting stuff.
Look, the complaints a couple of months ago had legit grounds--Michigan didn't have a lot of punch in the class. But now there are key commits rolling in, and the guys in the fold look like terrific players in key spots.
Win big this fall and things appear to be on a great track, still. If last year's on-field struggles are just a blip, the recruiting setback will be, too.
My one complaint is that it seems we didn't really capitalize on a strong in-state class that features 2 big time prospects at a position that has seemingly been a sore spot for god knows how long. Other than that though, this seems like a class similar to 2016-2017 with a few big time prospects, some big risers, and plenty of chances for late cycle splashes.
it's true. if we got either brown or dobbs (or both) we would've been in contention for a top 3 class. but we're going to end up with a top 10 class, and with this coaching staff, that's more like a top 5.
If a couple of Hill, Ford, Cine, and Crouch--hell, maybe even Harrison--are joined by a solid actual tackle-prospect, I don't think that folks will even really notice.
What's up with Mazi Smith's rating? He was like #123 and now is #225, but is basically a 5* in ESPN's rankings? So weird
He only dropped from #224 to #225 in 247's ratings. ESPN is pushing his composite way up.
According to 247, the top two commits in the B1G are committed to Wisconsin and Purdue.
Better admire it while you can, that's like Halley's Comet.
Maybe not Wisco. They're doing some great work.
According to MgoFish, the first numbers below were the last composite ratings as of the end of our commit spree. The second numbers are today.
Hinton: 16 -> 22
Herron: 84 -> 86
Smith: 123 -> 119
Rumler: 129 -> 126
Charbonet: 306 -> 186
Gray: 248 -> 245
McNamara: 257 -> 267
Jones: 290 -> 297
Ojabo: 488 -> 318
Barnhart: 379 -> 390
Thomas: 390 -> 401
Turner: 440 -> 443
Q. Johnson: 470 -> 478
Carpenter: 490 -> 509
All: 504 -> 510
Stewart: 593 -> 624
Newburg: 643 -> 688
Velazquez: 968 -> 933
G. Johnson: 953 -> 958
It appears that most slid a couple spots because they weren't re-evaluated while a few risers passed them. Charbonet and Ojabo were given substantial bumps. Velazquez got a little boost too perhaps because ESPN gave him a grade.
Still very confused by McNamara's rating. Yes, his upside is limited due to his height and apparent lack of arm strength, but I don't see how he could get moved down after how he's performed recently. He's performed better than a lot of QBs in front of him and I just don't see how that shouldn't be weighed more than apparent upside
He still could move up slightly. 247 only updated their TOP247 rankings. The rest have yet to be updated.
He moved down because others behind him moved ahead of him. That is all.
Marvin Ham
Belleville LB
92 ranking by 247
committed to BC
should we be looking at this guy?
Only if middle name is Rum
Might you say we're getting "hammered"?
Hinton (36), Moved down 10 spots
Charbonnet (40), Moved up 179 spots!
Gray (86), Moved up 9 spots.
Herron (146), Moved down 6 spots.
Rumler (154), Moved up 2 spots.
Ojabo (193), Moved up 344 spots!
Smith (225), Moved down 1 spot
Barnhart (237) Moved down 2 spots
So refreshing seeing TWO Michigan RBs in the Top100. Were bound to hit big on at least one of them. Hopefully we can hold on to both.
Interesting how former Michigan target Noah Cain was at one point the Top RB in the 2019 class yet now he's all the way down at 242. Dude must've got complacent at the top while all the other backs behind him were hungry
So out of curiosity, now that Ojabo is a composite 4* does that mean the “three star mafia,” now loves the commit?
There were a whole lot of people bitching up a storm as of about 2 or 3 weeks ago. It’s crazy what waiting until the end of the recruiting cycle will do to the sky is falling crowd.
This is exactly why you don't complain about Summer commits prior to rankings updates. This is not to say that we are now recruiting at Ohio St. or Alabama levels, but if you include the targets we are after, this looks a LOT like the 2016 class.
If anyone is interested in seeing a team ranking that is by 247 ranking, not composite, here it is
I guess this should be taken with a grain of salt since I think it's dependent on various fanbases inclination to vote and enthusiasm for online polls (looking at you Nebraska), but it is fascinating that Michigan has San Francisco, NYC, and DC (plus the Boston suburbs)
I think this map also tells us that America's Bandwagon Team is OSU. So many random, rural counties with the block O. I imagine they're also big Yankees, Man U, and Dallas Cowboys fans. Maybe some Duke basketball too
Oops wrong thread. Can we not edit posts anymore?
Nnnnnnnope. Points and edits were left in the truck when the site moved to 3.0.
If USC wants Ford.
USC gets Ford.
Come on, get real.
Anyone else notice Donna dropping 10 spots and losing his 5th star? Lol I giggled
Dobbs* dangit cant edit on phone
It's okay they fixed it now so you can't edit on your computer either.
Did you giggle seeing Hinton dropping 10 spots on 247, thus dropping him from 5* status on composite? glass houses.
Fan 1: You like 247?
Fan 2: It depends.
Fan 1: On what?
Fan 2: If they move a player I like up.
Fan 1: Me too! I think all those kind of places are great when they move a player from my team up.
Fan 2: Word!
Fan 1: I really didn't like them when they moved that great player I think is great down. He got moved down even more at Rivals. I didn't like both of them then. They both weren't good sources then.
Fan 2: Hey, I know. That player is a shoo-in for a Heisman!
I really don't know what the point of this post is? Is there one? Or are you working on some fan fiction...heh get it?
Aren't you a little bit worried that by interacting with it that it might interact back with you? I'd just leave it alone as it looks like it is having fun right now interacting all by itself.
