BBrown: Possible Preferred Walk-on Giovanni Rescigno

This isn't huge news as it involves a preferred walk-on but since I spoke with Giovanni Rescigno I figured I'd post our chat.

Rescigno was at the Nebraska game (sorry to bring that up again) and while the game bummed us all out Rescigno still had a good time taking in a game at The Big House. He's been there a handful of times and says he likes it more and more everytime he goes.

Rescigno doesn't hold any offers right now but he definitely wants to play college ball in some capacity. He won't commit to the idea of taking up the Michigan coaches on the preferred walk-on offer but he is keeping his mind open to the idea. He still plans to visit Toledo, Bowling Green, and Ohio, as well as Michigan again for The Game. He's had some good talks with the coaches already about his potential future as a Wolverine. "The coaches want me to come there and they really like me so it's definitely an option. Obviously if I get a full ride somehwere then that's something I'd take, but I guess we'll see what happens down the road. I'd love to be at Michigan though!"

Rescigno just finished his senior season as the quarterback for Warren De La Salle and was the backup for Shane Morris while he was there. He had this to say about the current Michigan freshman. "Me and Shane are best friends. We were close in high school and we're still close. We have a great friendship." He said that his relationship with Morris is a definite draw to possibly walking on at Michigan.

Rescigno has great size at 6'4", 225 lbs. and spins it pretty well on film. I'd be shocked if he doesn't have an offer from somewhere before it's all said and done. If he doesn't I think he'd be a great candidate for a walk-on position at Michigan.
