Hmmm. Well, if he was hand-picked by Borges, he's probably pretty good.

Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good. -

Rivals still lists six guys with unsigned letters...
Poggi, Fox, Dawson, McCray, Samuelson, and Dukes.
Also, per mgoblog, Sypniewski does not actually have a guaranteed scholarship. More like a preferred walk-on.Comment

I'm getting pretty skeptical of Borges. College football coaches have three jobs. 1) recruiting 2) x's and o's 3) player development.
I don't think anyone thinks Borges is a top recruiter, and I have yet to see much which would change that opinion. I've also not seen a great deal of player development, in fact I have trouble naming one player better last year than the year prior. His x's and o's are debatable perhaps, but even if they were exceptional, i don't know that it makes up for his deficiencies in other areas.
I guess what I am saying is that he is hardly better than Greg Robinson, and not a top 10-20 Offensive Coordinator nationally.To be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" KobayashiComment

Borges definitely not an A+ coordinator. I think that he's a Ron English caliber coordinator. He's going to have a few good games a year and he's going to get pantsed at least a few times a year. He's never going to come up with a game plan for shredding a great defense. I really hope that this QB from Virginia is legit. Wish we would have at least taken a plan B guy in 2012.Comment

Here's a not very glowing scouting report for the QB from Virginia from Touch the Banner...
.The 6'6", 217-pounder has no offers at this time. Speight might be the sleeper of the group. I like the way he throws the ball under pressure. Sometimes it's unbelievable how accurate he is with guys in his face, but to be honest, it seems like he's in a habit of throwing off his back foot because of a porous offensive line. He barely has a chance to breathe before two or three defenders are in his face. He's a little too stiff in the pocket for my liking and will struggle to avoid college rushers; he lacks great arm strength and has a little bit of a hitch in his delivery. He just looks very unpolished. I could see him going somewhere like Texas Tech or Washington State and lighting it up a few years down the road, but I don't think he's a good fit for Michigan.
Meh. Maybe we are taking two QBs this year?Comment

I wasn't impresed with his film. Lacks arm strength for a big kid.I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.

Sounds like another Dave Cone."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

And this guy was our Plan A? Sounds like Hoke/Borges's version of Teric Jones/Greg Brown/Delonte Hollowell.Comment

In a few years it's going to be very interesting to watch The Game when Michigan has the ball. Our O-line v.s. their D-line. Schmucks are putting together a really good defense. Michigan needs some receivers that can stretch the field.Last edited by Rocky Bleier; February 6, 2013, 11:32 AM.I'll let you ban hate speech when you let me define hate speech.
