The kid has a great arm. When he throws, it doesn't look like he's throwing that hard, but 60 yards later, it comes down in the receiver's hands. I saw him in a few HS games around here and he was always the most talented player on the field.
I saw on a local site here that he might be interested in Michigan, because he has a family member that is ill, and wants to be nearby. But I don't give a lot of credibility to that source.

If you haven't seen it yet, Brian has posted a comprehensive article on 2024 "needs" by position. Recruiting is not something I spend a lot of time with so, how Brian goes about identifying returners, freshman already enrolled, guys that will come back/portal themselves, etc. is really helpful if you're like me. For those that do follow all this stuff closely, it's probably nothing new.
Of course, talent has already asserted M will crater in 2024 because (1) they are going to get hammered by the NCAA for being DFCs and (2) the talent level will suck. Frankly, I feel pretty good about 2024 after reading Brian's article. BTW, JJ is in the "Maybe," he'll be back bin. I've read a lot will depend on what current eligible QBs will be looking to get drafted and that there are a lot of them. Obviously, a college QB risk injury to increase his draft stock so, I guess we'll see on JJ.
Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.Comment

I said M will regress to their mean. That's 8-4/9-3 and losing to Ohio State.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

M will need significant transfer help and JJ returning to win 9+, that schedule is pretty brutal.Comment

That's the one wildcard. M has done well for itself in the Portal so far. That could help things considerably.Originally posted by WM Wolverine View PostDan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

9-3 with that schedule might get M close to the #11 seed spot. Certainly in the teens ranking. Not that thinking that far ahead matters to me at this time. Winning the natty this year gives me enough satisfaction as a fan to last decades.
Dante Moore would be a nice pickup though.AAL 2023 - Alim McNeillComment

The portal could be a two-edged sword for recruiting. For instance, if Dante comes in, then we're likely to lose at least one of Jadyn Davis or Smith. Dante will have 3 years eligibility remaining, and I doubt that the two commits we have now will want to wait until he's done. So, I think we lose at least one of those.Originally posted by WM Wolverine View Post
I didn't realize that DL's Grant and Graham were only sophomores, .. so maybe things are not as dark for '24 as I once thought. There seems to be a servicable nucleus of guys coming back where if the portal could fill in a few gaps, the D could be pretty tough again. That's a wait and see.
A lot hinges on whether JJ comes back or not. If he does, I'm not sure Dante will come here. Will he want to wait another year to be 'developed'? He's looking for real playing time, not mop up. If JJ goes, then the door opens wide for Dante. I'm still wondering about Donovan as well. He hasn't given much indication where he's leaning. He'd be a very strong RB1 should he return, but there are others who have been RS this year, waiting in the wings. Ben Hall and Cole Cabana are talented RB's. Maybe one of the three moves to slot?
I have no idea what the W/L record will look like in '24. Its the toughest M schedule I've ever seen. Texas, Oregon and USC at home are no bargain. Then road games at Washington, Illinois, and Columbus are as tough as I've ever seen. Yes, I included Illinois in the tough road games category, because they hate us there almost as much as OSU does. Its going to be very tough to qualify for even a 12 team playoff with a schedule like that. But, if they DO qualify, it will be well-earned. I don't see how they could get in with anything less than 9 wins. Most likely its going to take 10-11 wins to qualify. JMO.

Looks like it's going to happen, I still want Harbaugh to go to the NFL after the Alabama loss.

Michigan AD Warde Manuel, UM's leaders and lawyers, are finalizing Harbaugh's contract: 5 years, 55 million, which will make him the highest paid coach in the Big Ten, as promised weeks ago. The ball is now in Harbaugh's court.Comment
