    • Very nice.

      • Great! 4th and 5th verbals for 2013, both 4-stars (Bosch OL and Shallman FB/DE), can't wait to see who else commits soon. As long as the early verbals are 4* or better, keep 'em coming!

        • Huge to get Bosch in this class early. Illinois is loaded and the 4-5(LTT, Treadwell, Isaac, etc) are all pretty tight.

          • Great to land a blue chipper from Illinois this year, it could lead to other blue chippers from Illinois as its particularly loaded in top 100 talent this year... Terrific OL class (Tuley-Tillman, Pocic, ) in addition to skill guys like Isaac, Treadwell, etc... M is 'in' in all of the blue chippers in Illinois other than a couple QB's; both of whom will probably have offers from almost everyone in the B10 other than M.

              Meaning he might help recruit other HS studs from Illinois for us? Sweet!

              • Shallman has a huge upside as well. I think Michigan is looking at him on the defensive side.

                • Offense.

                  • Aaaaaand David Dawson and Jourdan Lewis commit.

                    Comment


                    • M has told Shallman he's a running back, which I think is a mistake. Not because he's not a talented back but because he's that good of a defensive end...

                      Oracle and I posted at the same time but yes, Bosch most certainly helps M with other Illinois recruits; Tuley-Tillman, Treadwell, Pocic and Isaac mostly. Great year for top talent in Illinois and M establishing pipelines there is great to gain an edge over ND. Carr, RR generally lost recruiting many of ND vs M recruiting battles in Illinois. ND generally has been able to take the very best in Illinois, leaving the scraps for Wisky, Iowa, Illinois, NW to fight over....

                      Going off on a tangent but the talent in M in '13 isn't particularly exciting after the top 6-7... Class of '14 in-state is deeper and has a lot more top 200 type talent; should be a year M will offer ~10 or so in-state kids.

                      • Good day to clean-up the recruiting board; both Dawson & Lewis were highly expected in this class once an offer came through.

                        Comment


                        • I'm torn on Shallman. I love the option of having someone that big and athletic at RB...I haven't looked at much defensive film of his, but if he's that good a DE....

                          Comment


                          • Pretty much everyone we wanted in state is now done(save Elmer) unless I'm missing someone.

                            Comment


                            • I expect a couple new names to pop-up in-state this summer in camps, kinda like Drake Johnson did but otherwise yes, M cleaned up in-state very early. Berkley Edwards is the type of guy who could get a late offer if ones available late, he's a RB/ATH that could play some receiver and runs a 4.5... If M strikes out on its top targets at DT nationally, they might fall back on Poet Thomas DT... Riley Norman probably isn't M caliber at OL, should do well for MSU...

                              Might recognize the name of Demar Dorsey, he's going to transfer after next season and should get B10 quality offers, classified as a transfer in class of '13. Will need to get his academics to get by admissions. GRCC is actually one of the few CC's M is accredited for.
