UM Football Recruiting - by WM Wolverine

[The Oracle]

And per twitter, Dawson makes it official. Back in the fold.

[The Oracle]

And Delano Hill commits. Good start to the weekend.

[Rocky Bleier]

Great News! Let's hope Dawson can persuade Green to come to Ann Arbor. Delano Hill was probably more of a need than Dawson, too. Awesome...

"again a reason why they should never have turned down quality players, Pocic, Levenberry etc."

Absolutely. A real head scratcher why they would say no so early in the process.

[The Oracle]

Well, that's one way you implement your no visit policy. If you say you're still going to recruit the position once it's "full", then you can't really enforce any sort of no visit policy.

[Rocky Bleier]

Is Green the only option left at RB? I can see Malzahn talking him into an Auburn commit. I get the feeling that Green wants to play in the SEC.

[The Oracle]

The RB that's committed to NW is on the list, whose name I can't pronounce.

[Rocky Bleier]

He doesn't have a Michigan offer:

[The Oracle]

Well no, because as of now we wouldn't take him.

[Rocky Bleier]

He has not visited. He doesn't have an offer. There are less than 2 months left in recruiting. Yet, his name comes up as a backup plan. Why?

.

How do you figure? He is a safety with a meh offer list, and we are pretty good at that position, it seems.

[Rocky Bleier]

I think the O-line recruits the past couple of years - including this one - are much more impressive than the Safeties. For what it's worth, 247 thinks pretty highly of him.

Godwin Igwebuike is a backup plan, Green is an early enrollee (?) so he'll decide quite soon. M feels they have a very good chance with Green, if he goes elsewhere the heat will turn on for Igwebuike.

[WM Wolverine]

A few offers going out for OL, not sure what this is about whether it signals OL #6 or a current OL (LTT is rumored) is wavering...

Does sound like attrition (Jerald Robinson) might've opened up a spot for #26. They are at 24 for now.

Any word on DG medical redshirt?

[WM Wolverine]

Everyone will know when it's announced, it won't be news that slips through the cracks.
