UM Football Recruiting - by WM Wolverine

[Hannibal]

Wheatley sounds like an ideal SDE if Roseboro graduates to DT and we can land KLS as a WDE.

He has the height to play OT, but this is probably the last staff in the world that I would trust to develop a raw guy into a great OT.

[WM Wolverine]

Staff doesn't like Wheatley's explosiveness as a DL.

The ND game is going to kill recruiting

[hodgkal]

That is for sure! Dave Brandon are you listening?

It will kill Michigan's recruiting when they are head to head with ND.

Most other kids won't even be paying attention to Michigan anymore.

[Jeff Buchanan]

You might be right about the kids, Liney, but not the handlers of elites. They know damn good and well who is going to coach up their prodigies to enter the NFL, bringing a big pay day in the process.

M is not going to compete without talent. It is not going to get there with the current coaching staff who are demonstrating very plainly that they have difficulty putting players on the field who can perform at a high level.

Roseboro is taking an official visit to NC State today according to sources.

[Mackenzie]

On "The Herd" today….posted a tweet purpotedly from Chris Clark's account stating something to the effect (but very close) that if Hoke is fired that changes everything.

Say what you will but kids follow this crap. Also, maybe showing a lot of support for Hoke.

I think Rosebora was in NC this weekend. Wonder how that went.

[Hannibal]

We'll lose a recruit or two but we're going to lose more if he stays. And we'll get some back with the new guy and probably get that traditional first 12 months recruiting bump.

247sports.com's Steve Lorenz reported Monday afternoon that a trio of Michigan's 2015 commits now have plans to visit other schools moving forward.
Lorenz reports that four-star defensive end Darian Roseboro, five-star tight end Chris Clark and four-star cornerback Garrett Taylor have all expressed interest in visiting other schools, bringing questions about the status of their current verbal commitment to Michigan.

The most important comment to me was Desmond Howard's (and he picked UM #6 preseason) to the effect that when he watched UM practice, he didn't see anyone (save Peppers) who looked like they wanted to be exceptional. No swagger.

I'd even be for offering the job now to the best asst coach at OSU and keeping the rest of the staff in place. That at least allows some continuity in recruiting. We need OSU's culture.

The rest of the staff includes Funk. He cannot coach a single minute in 2015 for M.

[SeattleLionsFan]

He hasn't coached one in 2014 as far as I can tell! ;)

[iam416]

Well-played.

[Da Geezer]

Roseboro officially decommitted today. He is "re-opening his recruitment process"
