There might not be a coming back next time. Unlike Ohio, we don't have a backyard full of 5* and 4* guys. We have to use our resources, name, and tradition to recruit. Very soon we are going to be recruiting kids who weren't alive the last time that Michigan went to a Rose Bowl. -
Yeah. Then it will require competence. But that's how its going. There will still be the stadium and the alumni money. It won't be starting from scratch completely.Comment

If you look at his list of suitors and his limited visits, I think his recruitment may not be over. He's a 2015 kid. He visited Arkansas unoficially a month and a half ago.Originally posted by Hannibal View Post

True, but that will put us in Tennessee's shoes. They might suck for 20 more years.Originally posted by hack View PostComment

I'm personally shocked that Froholdt is going somewhere other than M. I'm not a huge fan of his as a recruit, but I thought he was a lock for M.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?

Yes. But Michigan is clinging to its tradition for all its worth and then some. Who knows how it turns out in the end but the frog/boiling water analogy fits well.Originally posted by Hannibal View PostComment

Michigan picked up a commitment from its first HS sophomore today, a OL named Eric Swenson, from Downers Grove IL.
Swenson is already 6' 5" and 292. He is being coached in the off season by Mike Jones of Core 6 Athletes, a training group based in the Chicago area. The former Iowa offensive lineman has been working with his pupil for over three years now, and likes the progress he's seen out of Swenson.
"Erik's always working to be a finisher in the run game," Jones said. "He gives high efforts in his blocks. He's continuing to develop a mean streak and be a more aggressive player. What really makes him special at his left tackle position is his athleticism. It's one thing to find big offensive linemen, and it's another to find athletic ones to play left tackle, and especially in offenses that are very pass-happy in college and the NFL, they want to protect that blind side. With his athleticism, now down the future and down the road, he has the athleticism to one-on-one pass block defensive end with his arm reach, with his quick feet, he can pass block them all game without any help."
Swenson will be part of Michigan's 2016 recruiting class."The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, .. I'd worn them for weeks, and they needed the air"Comment

Nice breakdown of the 2011 class that Hoke had about 3 weeks to save:

Hoke did alright considering. Discouraging that RR had a good bit of top 250 recruits interested and they all went elsewhere. Fisher and hart were committed.Comment

Apparently Hand is trying to flip Peppers according to Peppers. But he says that "he thinks he's still going blue". This is going to be a wild ride to the finish.Comment
