UM Football Recruiting - by WM Wolverine

[Wellington_beefhouser]

Talent likes to put things in a particular way, so who knows, but it's not great news IMO if we're hoping to get guys OSU doesn't want.

Talent says we can have OSU scraps.

I said Black isn't a take for OSU now, and he's not. They have room for 2 WRs, maybe 3. They have Jaylen Harris in the bag as their "top 100-150" WR. They're chasing Trevon Grimes, Tyjon Lindsay and DPJ as their elite WRs.

Personally, I like Harris a smidge better, but the recruiting services prefer Black by a touch. In a toss up, UFM will go with the Ohio kid. That said, if they miss out on everyone they'd definitely get back into recruiting Black -- and that happens all the time. That's why isn't a take NOW.

I'd listen to WM (and even Oracle) -- the kid can play; the kid liked OSU; OSU isn't particularly interested; M wants Black. I'd consider that entirely good news.

As an aside, I have no clue if M offered Jaylen Harris or not. I couldn't care less if they did or didn't. He's a baller regardless.

Getting OSUs cast offs right now is kinda like getting Tom Brady's cast offs. You could do much much worse.

HARBAUGH!!!!! is coming to Ohio for a satellite camp! It'll be at Warren Harding. With Lynn Bowden freshly decommitted from IU and with M having gads of spots, perhaps they'll actually land a really good player with one these things.

I don't mean it as a big deal. Not saying we're dooooooooooooomed. And just because a player isn't desired in one place doesn't mean he isn't good or right for another. Fit, culture, etc. But it certainly would be nice if in a few years we might see the reverse scenario.

[iam416]

With the numbers M took last year and then this year, you're going to see smaller, more exclusive classes in the future. And then you'll see M facing numbers issues and passing on really good kids. Believe me, I'd rather OSU have 28 spots and were pushing for Black than have barely 20 and figuring out which top 300 players they can credibly ask to grayshirt (answer: none).

But, don't worry...M will never pass on a sturdy fullback!

[hack]

One day we will have a class entirely composed of fullbacks, yes.

Nico Collins to visit this weekend, M has a good chance to pry him from the south with the family connections in-state.

One day we will have a class entirely composed of fullbacks, yes.

And Harbaugh will find a way to start all of them... at the same time.

I'd love a team full of Sione Houmas

Why couldn't have Harbaugh added just one more to bring it up to an even 24? I would have like to hear all the SEC screeching about the DOZENS of camps JH is holding!!

[Wellington_beefhouser]

Harbaugh's intensity and drive are fucking amazing.

This is Harbaugh in the words of Will Smith... [ame]http://youtu.be/doqS35FfcUE[/ame]
