great day to be blue

Projected 2013 class (24 Spots)

QB: Shane Morris*
RB: Wyatt Shallman* and Ty Isaac
WR: Jaron Dukes* and Laquon Treadwell
TE: Jake Butt*, Khalid Hill*, and Jacob Matuska
OL: David Dawson*, Chris Fox*, Kyle Bosch*, LTT*, and Patrick Kugler*
DL: Taco Charlton*, Henry Poggi, Eddie Vanderdoes, A. Muhammad
LB: EJ Levenberry, Dorian O'Daniel, and Ben Gedeon
DB: Jourdan Lewis*, Dymonte Thomas*, Gareon Conley, and Priest Willis/Tre Bell

Holy shit.

True I guess it all depends on how the class fills up in the near future but we lack depth on the Dline and I think we desperately need bodies there. Maybe take away one of those LBs and put in the third WR but I don't know who the coaches are recruiting for that spot. Obvious wants are James Quick and Robert Foster but those just aren't realistic until they've been on campus. Maybe Rob Wheelwright but he really likes Wisconsin.

Same. Shane tweeted the other day about taking 3 WR.

I think that had more to do with the guys they were after not dropping. If Garnett, Kozan, or Diamond wanted to commit we would have taken two of them.

Here's a blurb from Tremendous indicating he's a Michigan target and also that he's expressed Michigan interest (which it really pains me to point out):

This Rivals profile used to show LSU as higher interest than the other schools listed, though they must have changed it:

Interestingly, he transferred high schools a few weeks ago:

If you're really interested, there was an article in the New Yorker a few months ago about Don Bosco football that spent a lot of time talking about Peppers. Your old friend Yuri Wright even gets mentioned here and there.

Wow, Fournette does look like a man amongst boys in the Youtube video. I'm sure he'll be tough to pull out of LA, though. Sony Michael looks just as ridiculous, especially given the clips I could find were of him in 8th and 9th grade vs varsity competition. South Florida will be tough to extract him from, as well.

Speaking of 2014 talent, I found this link to the Air Force All sophomore team:

Looks like some top talent in the Midwest again. Michigan fans no doubt will love this list.

Gelen Robinson may be one to watch out for.

As long as Michigan is winning we will be in virtually everybody's mix because of our coaching staff, academics, and tradition. As long as we're winning.....we can offer everything.

Is there a reason why we haven’t offered QB Aaron Bailey from IL. Is he a NW or ND Lean? Haven’t seen any tape on him but he seems like he is highly touted and a good athlete.

Agree. We are in excellent position with Treadwell and he is the coaches' #1 WR priority right now. If we don't land him, the coaches will shift gears and open up WR recruiting further. But, if we get Treadwell, I think the coaches are more likely to purdue a RB who can catch or another TE.
