Michigan Football, Team 137, 2016 Season.

Ah. Yeah, good point.

Bush Sr. is a former NFL safety that started for Atlanta. Bush Jr. isn't the type of recruit you hire a guy to sign.

Possible Bush Sr. was hired to help build a recruiting pipeline in the Miami area but to land Bush Jr? No.

[WM Wolverine]

Gentry to tight end sounds like a long-term move, he's a big athlete and could do very well there. He's in the same class as Wheatley Jr...

Mason Cole is going to practice at center this spring, he'll likely stay there unless Grant Newsome can't handle left tackle duties...

[hack]

The move I keep hoping to hear about is Wheatley to OT.

I got no problem with Bush Jr. I am just pointing out how silly the idea that M bought his services by paying his dad. They could have paid other better players dads instead.

That's the thing. I don't think those other guys are better than Bush Jr, necessarily. And as WM said, Bush Jr. wasn't brought in here just for his son.

Wayne Lyons' mom was hired, and Lyons got no PT.

[The Oracle]

Recruiting shmmruiting. Got bigger fish to fry.

Harbaugh is going to have a HR hitting contest with former Wolverine great Rick Leach today at the Wilpon Complex. Its part of the Softball Academy sponsored by the team every year. Its a fund raiser.

[Mike]

My money is on HARBAUGH!!

You'd probably need to get to know some administrators, instructors and others employed by the university. Maybe knowing a few players would help too.

Obsessed.

ESPN has us @ #3 pre-season, higher the better at least for our final ranking. With the questions at QB, it's difficult to be near that optimistic.

7 games are close to gimmies: Hawaii, UCF, Colorado OOC, B1G @Rutgers, Illinois, Maryland & Indiana... Tougher games are Penn State, Wisconsin, @Sparty, @Iowa, and @OSU...
