Devin Gardner announcing this week- no surprises
Does this mean scout and Rivals automatically drop him 100 spots? They will also need to update his profile page and downgrade his fake 40 time by at least 0.3 seconds.
I really don't think those websites understand what the 'Michigan Difference' really means. Poor Ricardo felt the brunt of commiting early to Michigan..if only he had waited or hinted that he was headed to ESSSSEEEEECCCCC.

what his star ranking is. Do the kids really care do you think? Im sure some do. I mean we know he is good and has potential. We dont need a third party to inform us again.
I guess I just dont get the poor ricardo comment. Poor him why? Because the fictitious star got left out? I dont know maybe im being too much of a realist or something.

stars don't matter. Have you heard that Michael Hart and Patrick White were both 3-stars? Have you heard that Colt McCoy and Sam Bradford were both 2-stars?

McCoy and Bradford were both 3-star prospects, but point taken

The guy above you was being sarcastic.
Also, Vince Young was a 5 star. So was Chad Henne. So was Anthony Morelli. /mind asplode

Morelli made everyone on Michigan's defense look like 5-stars. Maybe he should be next-in-line for the defensive coordinator merry-go-round
OMG KELLY BARAKA

What he really should have done is wait until the day before the first game of 2010 and THEN announce. Boo-ya, the rarefied 6 star will be his for the taking.
Devin is a huge pick up. He will take over the as starter sophmore season and dominate.
Really? Even though we are likely to have a 2 year starter returning that year, and most feel Gardner needs a lot of polishing before he's ready to see the field?
Sophomore year? Doubt it, unless you mean redshirt sophomore year and Tate is gone as a first round pick after his junior year (I can be optimistic, right?). Dude needs a lot of work.
I won't get excited about recruiting until we have a season again when we're over .500
Thanks for contributing. See you next January! (God, I hope)
In that case can you stop posting about it too? Or do you just like being a buzz kill for everyone else?
I'm not sure what the OP's last sentence means.
