This is a fun time of year to have DirecTV and their "sportspack". They show a ton of high school games on the various RSNs. It's the only meaningful football on TV this time of year (obviously), but we're so desparate for football that we watch all of it.

Or you can watch Vikings @ Seahawks on NFL network.

Is anyone as underwhelmed by Connor Brewer as I am?

Bishop Gormans o-line was just massive. They murdered Chaparral in the second half. Roh didn't look like anyone that Michigan needs.

Maybe Roh had an off night, but he wasn't all that impressive.

His eyebrows are so uncraigian.

meh. too early to handout an offer IMO.

I didn't watch the game, but I'm a big Fred Roh fan after publicly standing up for Michigan's program and knowing that he reads this blog. I hope it was just an off-game for Jake, because I enjoy having the Roh's as part of the Michigan family.

Watching Jake yesterday, I did not see a speedster, but he has a good frame and seemed to run good short/medium routes. He looked to me like he might make a solid TE eventually if he can put on some weight. He dropped one pass, but most of the other issues were either Connor Brewer's innacuracy or just the way the entire Chaparral team was steamrolled by Bishop Gorman. They had him at DE for a few series and BG ran over him like he wasn't even there. To be fair, they pretty much ran over everyone like they weren't even there.
Still, I question whether Jake has the speed to be an elite WR at the D-1 level. Maybe he will grow into a possible DE (but, honestly, he didn't look like he had any sort of killer instinct; there was nothing that screamed out future DE to me). More likely, assuming he has good hands and can block, he could turn into a solid TE. But, I agree, I don't think he warrants an early offer.
