Wow, it is hard to find this guy if you Google search "Mo Ways." If you're in the same pickle, try "Maurice Ways."
April 18th, 2013 at 10:02 PM ^
Maybe try Moe Ways?
April 18th, 2013 at 10:10 PM ^
Here's his junior film from youtube.. it is highlight tape, but you can definitely see why the coaches offered him.
April 19th, 2013 at 12:15 AM ^
Thanks for the link. A lot of nice plays, but I love when he caught a screen pass and destroyed the CB with a stiff arm.
By the way, who is the QB tossing him all those passes? Kid looks pretty good.
April 19th, 2013 at 12:44 AM ^
but if you are and for those who may wonder the same, his name is Tyler Weigers and he just committed to Rutgers last week. Ive seen some people ask sarcastically as well as an equal amount generally serious. To whom it may concern:

Thanks. I was serious. I live out in Colorado now and rely on the info here on this site to keep up with Michigan HS football.
I, too, was impressed by the QB. Nice zip when needed to thread the needle and was able to take a bit off when he needed to lob it over a defender. Not surprised to see him get (and accept) a BCS-level offer.
FWIW, I ranked Wiegers #4 of the QB prospects Michigan was considering (behind Cornwell, O'Connor, and Henderson).

Classic Magnus oversell
April 19th, 2013 at 11:14 AM ^
we should also have a chat with the QB who seems to hit him in stride most of the time. Kid can sling it.
there are Mo Ways than one to find him on the internet!
April 18th, 2013 at 10:02 PM ^
Relatively unknown guy forcing highly ranked dudes to commit? Unlikely
April 18th, 2013 at 10:08 PM ^
why would him not being as high ranked not speed things up with the other wr's? they all know there is only 3 spots.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:30 PM ^
There R only three spots*
April 18th, 2013 at 10:36 PM ^
Well, it's more of a freelance gig
April 18th, 2013 at 10:38 PM ^
Are. Grammar.
April 18th, 2013 at 11:27 PM ^
at least I get it
We're going to have to write you a ticket for impersonating an officer.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:05 PM ^
I'm excited for this kid. I think he's got huge upside and great potential to be a serious weapon in our offense. Having Drake Harris and Mo Ways... great wide receiver haul for the '14 class. If Ways drops, then I think KJ would be next.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:09 PM ^
This kid is the real deal! Reminds me of Braylon Edwards. He would be a huge get as wide receiver. Harris in the slot and Ways out wide would be scary in 2-3 years.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:14 PM ^
Most likely they'd both be split wide. They're looking at players like Artavis Scott for the slot role.
(KJ Williams potential commitment notwithstanding)
April 18th, 2013 at 10:16 PM ^
I would not go that far, the kid has a lot of potential but can get pushed around very easily. I coached against him this last year and against our piss poor secondary he only had 2 receptions for minimal yardage. Don't get me wrong the kid is good but not Braylon good.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:30 PM ^
I hope your players don't read this blog.. lol
April 19th, 2013 at 12:41 AM ^
you if I could! lol Way to go coach! lol
And hey "coach" you of all should know its about attributes. Coaches, well real coaches, teach kids to be great, as long as some of the building blocks are in place. Far be it for me though, to question your undoubtedly legendary coaching repertoire.
April 19th, 2013 at 10:36 AM ^
Maybe he's the receivers coach.
April 18th, 2013 at 11:12 PM ^
Likewise. Our secondary didn't have a player who could be a ball boy at Michigan, and Ways was kept in check.
That's weird. You have a piss poor secondary...so against the teams that presumably have better secondaries, he had 49 catches for about 950 yards and 9 touchdowns.
Maybe he was just having an off night. Or maybe his QB was having an off night.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:39 PM ^
Is not a slot.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:13 PM ^
seems like we are stuck with all these tall, fast type wide recievers with the current coaching regime.
/s
April 18th, 2013 at 10:40 PM ^
FIRE BEILEIN!
April 18th, 2013 at 10:14 PM ^
if Ways were to commit, and it'd be a slot guy like Scott or McCaffrey.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:33 PM ^
plus whoever commits first (Ways/Williams)
and then Scott
April 18th, 2013 at 10:16 PM ^
Man, we have been eating well off these local receivers. I dig it!
April 18th, 2013 at 10:19 PM ^
It was only a matter of time, Tremendous had hinted that this offer was coming sooner rather than later.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:21 PM ^
I was really hoping we would offer him after watching his film
April 18th, 2013 at 10:27 PM ^
Looks like Randy Moss, but more of an athletic freak.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:31 PM ^
Stop reading mgoblog and get back to work.
April 18th, 2013 at 11:22 PM ^
Best post ever! He said more than Moss lmfao! He would've had an offer 3 years ago from Les Miles if that were the case.
April 18th, 2013 at 11:28 PM ^
Ok. Fred Jackson
April 18th, 2013 at 10:27 PM ^
I've been on the Maurice Ways bandwagon since I saw his junior film. I thought he might have to wait a little longer, but he's a pretty good athlete. I've heard that he's inconsistent catching the ball, but hopefully he can shore up that aspect of his game.
April 18th, 2013 at 10:35 PM ^
After all, a WR who doesn't catch passes isn't very useful unless his name is Walter Smith.
Detroit Mackenzie. His 'wordsmithing. was a art of beauty. Talkabout a 'coach killer'...pretty much NAILED it on a certain tuos coach. I still chuckle about it today...
April 18th, 2013 at 11:36 PM ^
He looks like he has good tools. Goes up and catches the ball, runs pretty good routes, long and athletic, and has good enough speed to be a solid possession type. Reminds me a bit of an Adrian Arrington type.
Reminds me a bit of an Adrian Arrington type.
I'd take that in a heartbeat.
Another Braylon comparison...
