UM Football Recruiting - by WM Wolverine

McCaffrey, Wilson and DPJ and it wouldn't take much of a supporting cast to make me love the offensive class for '17.

M needs to clean-up on its top in-state targets defensively; then they can target their national recruits.

too bad '17 targets couldn't come to Signing with the Stars ... by all accounts people loved it.

Lots of new names will appear, lots of names will drop off but it's a rough draft that'll be very fluid. Hopefully some of the Pipeline 9 start to drop for the Wolverines come Spring along with a QB.

WM, can you name the pipeline 9, know DPJ ...not sure about the others.

I love what Antuan Simmons brings to the table. He'd be a great lb.

Right in M's backyard...literally right down the street from the big house.

Ric Flair spoke for about a minute but was hilarious.

Note..sorry PB... I hit the wrong button on my smartphone. Didn't mean to edit your post.

I didn't see "Signing of the Stars" posted anywhere.
Here is a YouTube video of that for those that didn't see it (like me):

It starts at around 24 minutes in. James Earl Jones is a narrator for an AMAZING opening video.

Pipeline 9 are the 9 of the 10 in-state recruits on the '17 recruiting board... I just counted 10 in-state, you can click on the names to bring up where they are from...

A few of the names I'm sure have switched, KJ Hamler is a lower priority than he once was though still probably belongs on the recruiting board. Scott Nelson is an addition.

Peters will redshirt next year right?

[The Oracle]

I'd bet he does, yes.

[Hannibal]

Just read on mgoblog that Gary has an electronically timed 4.74 40.

Wow.

That's faster than one of our WR commits!

Not only that but his feet are really nimble. I read that there won't be a buck in this defense, which makes sense if you want to maximize Gary as a frosh at end, I would think. He'll be needed on the interior more after Glasgow's gone.

What does that mean "frosh at end"?

Play him as an SDE his freshman year, move him inside after that.

I'm not sure how the depth chart will shake out. Supposedly he can be used at either location. Even WDE he is so explosive!.

[hack]

Yes -- it seems like he really could play anywhere on the line, and the strength of the line next year will be on the interior anyways.

[Hannibal]

Wormley, Hurst, Glasgow, and Gary will make a brutal front 4 to go against next year.
