Irving-Bey didn't get the start(some rumblings he might), but still want to see him against top competition.  He's had a strong week according to everything I've heard and read. Want to see T Black and Ambry Thomas too. 

Go Blue!

Aubrey Solomon must be even better than I've heard. He is starting at two different positions. Also what's the deal with AJ Epenesa? Is he a legacy or something? Iowa of all places?

I'll be reading a post about one of our stable bloggers who made it to the game and will be following Najee after the game.  Can't wait to find out his every move!

I'm not trying to be an a hole, but I just don't understand why people keep bringing up Oliver Martin's name. We already have enough good talented guys who will challenge for the slot wide receiver spot. I mean, one could argue that we really don't need to take another WR at all since we have so many already on the roster. Though I can understand us still chasing after Nico.

but I'd rather have Akers or Carr over Harris. I'd love to have any of them (!) but I don't think Harris is the top HB in the country, let alone player. I've been saying this for a long time. Harris will still crush it at Bama because Bama is Bama but I don't think Harris would be that much of an impact for us next year. That's no reason to be indifferent about missing on him but HB is the one place we can afford to go light on in this class and I don't think he's "the best prospect since AP" like many claim.

Enters UM as a frosh at 6'3" / 185lbs Plays in the NFL at 6'5" / 230lbs That kind of "late-bloomer" ... men aren't men until 20+ years old. McCaffrery enters UM 6'4" and 195lbs, so with two years of whole milk hoping he gets to 6'5"/220lbs by the time he starts. :)
