OSU Offers PWO Spot to 6-foot-7 OT; Michigan Offers the Next Day
Even your preferred walk-on candidates belong to us, Urban Meyer.
Matt Muterspaw, a 6-7 offensive tackle from Ohio, has become the most sought-after PWO in America. Yesterday, Urban Meyer offered him a PWO spot. Harbaugh countered today by doing the same. Don't know anything about this kid, except he came to a satellite camp in Indiana, and according to this article, he loves Harbaugh.
From the article:
"Talk to a father named Rodney Muterspaw, as I did Thursday at Chatard, and find out what this camp means to his kid. His kid won't play for Michigan. His kid, an offensive tackle named Matt, has an offer from Valparaiso. An offer from Michigan isn't coming. Matt Muterspaw knows that. But still he wanted to come to this camp, wanted it badly enough that his father drove him two hours from Middletown, Ohio, to make it happen.
"He's a huge Jim Harbaugh fan," Rodney Muterspaw told me. "He just wanted to be instructed by the Michigan staff. It's a lifelong dream of his. Coach Harbaugh said hello to him and took a picture with him. To a kid who loves Michigan, that's a big deal. If your kid has a dream, you owe it to him as a parent to do whatever you can."

I can't wait until Urbz develops "health problems" that we all know aren't really health problems. I give it three years.
January 15th, 2016 at 6:02 AM ^
You'll find this same post all over the blog back in 2011 when he was hired.
Hoke "would make this guy quit in 3 years".
January 15th, 2016 at 6:23 AM ^
Hoke and Harbaugh is to engage in idiocy.
January 15th, 2016 at 6:36 AM ^
you beat me to it.... carlos i love ya... but you cant compare hoke to harbaugh....
January 15th, 2016 at 11:19 AM ^
That's what Carlos is noting: that people who talk about Meyer health issues "in three years" are saying Harbaugh is like Hoke (for whom people said the same thing). That statement is the lunacy.

Matt Muterspaw may make Michigan mighty memorable many months.
January 15th, 2016 at 10:53 AM ^
For 1 week in November, his name would be Att Uterspaw

When was Muterspaw offered? Doesn't seem to be much out there on him other than he's a 6'7" 290+lbs OT in the Class of 2016.
January 15th, 2016 at 11:31 AM ^
PWO= Preferred Walk On. A preferred walk on is someone who is guaranteed a roster spot come fall, but won't be on scholarship.

Bishop Chatard High School

Didn't look up family specifics, but if Matt is a Catholic living in the archdiocese, that's only $9K/year, which is about 20% of U-M's out-of-state tuition.

That'd only bump our 2016 incoming scholarship freshmen number to what, 30?
January 15th, 2016 at 6:16 AM ^
Fuck it.
Oversign, Baby! Let's be bad.
Suck it, SEC.

zackly what I thought, bet he would grind it up.
January 14th, 2016 at 11:58 PM ^
Sounds like a Glasgow to me.
January 15th, 2016 at 12:02 AM ^
I'm down with good PWO's, Harbaugh is gonna build a monster!

We need a young man with a great name. It's our time.
January 15th, 2016 at 9:21 AM ^
Especially since Sir Patrick Scott is no longer an option.
January 15th, 2016 at 1:53 AM ^
tackle and teammate! Hope he decides to play for Michigan!
January 15th, 2016 at 2:11 AM ^
6'7" is normal for an o-lineman.
January 15th, 2016 at 2:21 AM ^
Future All Big Ten!
January 15th, 2016 at 3:00 AM ^
Are you going to make it that easy for him?
January 15th, 2016 at 3:26 AM ^
I'm hoping 6'7 tight end Allen comes to UM. I may be the only person who likes him better than Nauta.

This was always Harbaugh's MOA . . . pick a fight with the biggest bully on the block.
There are some awesome post-game handshakes coming up.
January 15th, 2016 at 7:42 AM ^
I think that is part of the reason he has done so much national recruiting this year. I have a feeling he will be focusing on the midwest more in 2016.
