What position does he project at for now? DB or WR?
Also, I feel like that's a big thing to forget in a write up from an interview..

He let me know after I had already done the interview with him; could have edited the post, but tweeted it instead.

I timed myself at a 4.23 just last week. Im the GOAT. Seriously though this kid is probably 6' 5" and runs a 4.5-4.6 which is still really good.

I can tell you, as his head coach, I don't condone all the fooling. His times are legit and his kegs really do pipe down.
He'll be camping at the big 3 in the offseason and they'll obviously all handle timing themselves so if I'm lying you'll know about it. :)

Benches 95 lbs? Odd for a prospective D1 football player.
Still don't believe the numbers that are reported, he is way too tall to run anywhere near 4.3 and it's almost physically impossible to be 130 at 6'7"

137 at his last weigh in. The kid is working his tail off to put on weight.
And I've timed him myself anywhere in the 4.29 to 4.35 range. He's run track (sprint/hurdles) his entire life so he knows how to stick a time.

Apparently, Tyrone Wheatley's kid is a sophomore right now.

Scout.com: Video Highlights: Tyrone Wheatley Jr.

Fayetteville-Manlius (Ny.) has a sophomore tight end-defensive line prospect with a familiar name and a lot of talent.

I did not know that.
I expect Tyrone Wheatley to become our new RB coach when Fred Jackson retries (after the 2013 season?) so his son could play for Michigan just like his father did.

FWIW Syracuse and Eastern Michigan almost have identical rushing statistics this year. Only a yard separates them.

Yup. Forgot that Hart was at EMU.
We might even take both. I would think that both would be great recruiters for Michigan because of how much they love the university, the program, and the tradition.
ETA: Cool stat MB21.

He's blue through and through.

He is going to be a top 20 recruit in 2015 and he appears to be a Michigan lock at this point. If he chooses to be social when he commits, then he could be the next Shane Morris, but it may be a little difficult for him since he lives much farther away than Shane Morris does.

I don't know if Damien Harris will be ranked in the top 20 of any recruiting site. I know there has been internet chatter that he will be a 5 star but that won't affect my opinion of him.
I'm much more concerned with what he shows on tape. And thus far, I have been impressed by his highlights

A lot of people will probably compare him to Tyner. Great stats, terrible competition.

I don't understand the criticism with Tyner. He has great size and insane speed.

He is like the 3rd fastest runner in the whole country, not just football.
The school he is going to also has the perfect offensive scheme for his talents.
If DAT can be successful at 5'9" 170 in that offense, I have no doubt that Tyner will be great at 6'2" 220 and with greater speed.

Oak Park DB John Kelly is attracting Michigan interest.
He is reportedly 5'11" and 175 pounds.
