Davis-Swain has visited Ann Arbor a few times with his teammates and I would expect us to be firmly in the mix, if not lead for him, after his decommitment

LOL. I was in the stands for most of Ali's games and followed Michigan then more closely than I even do now, and never once heard anybody use that nickname, nor did I ever read it in print. Your claim is 100% horseshit.

And even if anybody was idiot enough to use it, it doesn't change the fact that while at Michigan he set a Big Ten record by successfully converting 76 consecutive extra points. He also set the school records for career extra points (117) and field goals (31).

And to top it off, as an NFL rookie in 1983 with the Giants, he kicked 35 field goals which broke Jim Turner's NFL record for field goals in a season. Haji-Sheikh's record stood until 1996.

The thing I remember most about this guy was that the stadium announcer took extreme pleasure altering the emphasized syllable every time he said his name. If you weren't listening for it, you probably missed it, but my dad caught it and we laughed every time...

I was just over on 247 looking at the 2023 recruiting classes.

Michigan holding steady at #20.  I'd bet my usual $1 that we have some pleasant surprises over the coming weeks and months and end up around #15.

Looks like Sparty had another decommit.  Class is down to 11 recruits.   Although, very high * average.  Pretty much all 4*.  Ranked #35.  Some of their top commits are from out of state.  I'd be willing to be another $1 that they lose a few more of the out-of-state commits.

They have a pass rush/edge coach at state that’s a really good recruiter, claims he works privately with NFL guys in offseason. 
 

From his scouting I don’t know if  Jobe ever lives up to his rankings I think his absolute ceiling is a situational Iche type guy. He’s got a slender frame and I can see him getting stuck on Big 10 OTs.  If he ended up at ‘Bama my bet is he ends up playing their hybrid LB position. Personally I see Dapaepe as the better player
