I am proud of this website. 28 posts, and nobody has posted a "IF HE COMMITS WILL JONES DECOMMIT BECAUSE HE'S AFRAID OF COMPETITION?".

Thats probably because Jones is a low 3-star and he already had to compete with D-Gardner anyway. Besides, no one on this site has ever said anything close to people being afraid of competition...Right?

It's probably more because Jones likely wouldn't even have the chance to compete at QB if Legaux commits. He'd start off behind Tate, D-Rob, Gardner, and Legaux on the depth chart and the coaches would probably start whispering sweet slot/cornerback nothings in his ear.

I think Jones could make a decent slot receiver. I think his 40 time is around a 4.4. A little tall (6'2")for the slot but with RR he would make it work. If Jones were to redshirt and then take on the slot, some amazing things could happen there.

If Robinson gets beat out by Forcier, I figure he has to switch positions unless he is going to transfer or accept sitting on the bench for most of his career. I'm already surprised that Michigan is getting so many quality looks and commits at QB. Most schools have at least one or two year gaps between highly ranked QBs. Ohio State, for example, had no 4-star QB commits in 2006, 2007, or 2009.

I'm not sure getting "beat out" means what it used to under Carr. Two things Rich Rod always says. 1. EVERYONE competes for each position EVERY week. 2. He wants at least 2-3 guys he feels he can win with. I know starters need more reps, and time to develop a rhythm with the team and in each game; but I could see RR really trying to utilize every weapon he can find on offense. He might try multiple QBs per season, game, even per play. This might partly explain why he's able to coax so much talent to come here and compete, it's not an all or nothing proposition.

First reaction: There is no way that someone is named Munchie Legeaux. Second reaction: Pretend that there is, and that he is a halfway decent high school football player. How could he not commit to Louisiana State?

An even better question is how does somebody come up with Oregon, Baylor, and Michigan as his three schools? What could you possibly see in three totally dissimilar schools that you don't see in the other 110+?

From FAU: Yourhighness Morgan. Also, Providence has a guy named God Shammgod; nothing like setting the bar high. Here are some other names from other years in the article: Olympian Kim You Suk 1937 Pirates: Johnny Dickshot 1920's Yankees: Urban Shocker The full list has quite a few that are pretty funny, mostly of a sexual or anatomical nature. http://www.yardbarker.com/author/article_external/338026

I'm very excited about Mr. Legaux, and I believe he could be a great addition to Michigan's team. Sure, he's known to be a good quarterback prospect, and of course there is his name (which I'm assuming is pronounced "luh-go"). But I have one reason, and one reason only, for wanting Mr. Legaux on the team -- it's so that during the Minnesota game, I can yell at the top of my lungs: Go Munchie Le Geauxfurs!!! AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fuckin' Geauxfurs. (I'll see myself out of this thread)
