Woah!

That flat belly veggie pic looks like me when I look in the mirror.

I hate when they use my image without my permission.

Michigan gets a commit from 3* OH DE Keith Heitzman. Had been committed to vandy and had offers from a few MAC schools. He seems like he's another upside guy who won't likely play for a few years, but still good to see hoke bringing in some kids (albeit no particularly exciting ones)

Brady Hoke said he is thinking about bringing back the Michigan helmet stickers, will to talk to the players/coaches.

[LionsWolverines]

Can Michigan please steal this recruit from IU?! ... it says that Michigan is now the team to beat for Raymon Taylor ... and it is priority #1 for Hoke to get him

Purdue would be very happy to see IU's best recruit leave to Michigan.

Ask and ye shall recieve. Taylor committed today to bring the total up to 3 recruits in 3 days.

Though I'm curious how many more DBs we're planning on taking, we have a ton now.

[WingsFan]

Not a bad start for Hoke.

[chemiclord]

Considering the hole he started in with what amounts to a late start, no it's not.

luke warm, seems like a downgrade for Michigan but I guess how can you get much lower than Rich Rod.

He's not Marinelli, he's not Marinelli, he's not Marinelli...I keep telling myself. He's not recruiting kids who lack the skills and figuring he can coach them up. He's not thinking it's more important to be dedicated and loyal to the coach than talented. I keep telling myself.

I think he just needs some kids period.. and the NFL is loaded with kids rated at 3 stars or below.

I'd judge him more on next years recruiting class. This situation with only a couple weeks to find kids isn't fair to judge on.

Agree, Brook. Right now, signing anybody is a plus.

The kids he is bringing in aren't any less talented, or less highly regarded than RichRod's kids...

I hope you are right though...

How comforting.

[SeattleLionsFan]

You might have a point...
