Two today with the first coming from Ryan Bartow who is usually very accurate. Not good. He just visited there last week.

Gary was a huge exception. And Asiasi came out of the blue. I'm talking about the DeShawn hand, Mike webber, Treadwell, Kozan, Diggs, Malik McDowell. Not to mention decommits from Damien harris, George Campbell, dee Hart. We've let a lot more 5 stars slip away than we reel in. That's my point.

of literally every school with the possible exceptions of OSU this year and Alabama every year.  

On the guys you named: Weber and Kozan weren't 5 stars, Treadwell got paid, Diggs was a guy lots of schools shied away from, McDowell had a ton of friends at State and felt more comfortable there, Campbell committed on the spur of the moment at the BBQ and was never going to stay, Damien Harris left because Borges got fired, and Dee Hart got freaked out by  the Rich Rod situation.   In other words, it's recruiting, and stuff happens.

Yea what's the excuse here if we miss on DPJ and Wilson, our only shot at 5 stars? I definitely agree with your analysis especially since our program hasn't been the most stable. Just thought those days were behind us.

is that you're cherry picking like crazy.  Every year, every single top school loses out on guys they were expected to get for most of the cycle while swooping in and nabbing someone unexpected.   You're listing all the guys Michigan missed out on, while overlooking the guys Michigan stole late, which include Kyle Kalis, Prescott Burgess, Shawn Crable, Je'Ron Stokes, Mike Shaw, Ambry Thomas, Devin Funchess, Donovan Warren, Asiasi, etc. (whether all these guys worked out on the field is a different question, obviously).  It's recruiting.  People get so worked up about the unpredictability of 18 year old kids and want to construct these absurd narratives around the decisions of teenagers.  

And if Michigan loses Peoples-Jones to OSU, I'll think what I've always thought: Urban Meyer is the best coach in college football by a  very large margin.

Gary and Asiasi aren't the exceptions in your post. Harbaugh is, and that's why we got them. Michigan will always be good enough to be contenders for these guys, but closing comes down to standing out amongst the other elites. Harbaugh does that.

Only Weber factors in JH's time, and that was with very little time for JH to build a relationship with him.

So Adderall is a common Med? Lol. And I need to chill? You replied, then I replied. I worked in pediatrics for years and I never heard a Physician use the medication adderall. Thus, you must have a little knowledge of its usage and the purpose for it! If you're gonna try and belittle someone with a idiotic reply. Just expect that you will possibly run into the same thing, every blue moon! Lastly, I don't care about all this BS. Grown ass men replying constantly about what a teenager is getting ready to do is insane. I was generally just making up shit, like the rest of all these posts. So despite all of this being said do you know who the young man is going to pick? If not, try Adderall. Wtf that is! Lol

This could be more fallout from the imminent Najee Harris to Michigan commitment. Of course that makes no sense, but I'm trying to be positive here

I glanced at Georgia's VIP notes.

It looks like they trailed by a good distance going into his visit, but that the visit went very well. Still doesn't seem like people are all that confident in their circles.

I'll get worried if Webb or Wiltfong say the game has changed.

Too bad they didn't have him visit in July-August so he could see how miserable it can get and that you sweat your ball sack off after walking to get the mail. I'd rather have cold toes and damp socks from a blizzard and snow than soaked ball sack and boxers every day I walk outside. Rumor is that Urban pitches this same line except he shows recruits pictures of himself in whitey tighty briefs next to his NC trophies.
