I still want to hear what his timeline will be now.

He said he enjoyed his Michigan visit more, albeit "just a little bit". The shorter the timeline, the more it bodes well for Notre Dame though, definitely.

Yup. We definitely have to hope that he extends his timeline. I think the BBQ would be the type of event that resonates with Hood more than something like a spring game. So, in my opinion, for Michigan to have a shot, his timeline needs to be extended to the end of summer.

In any case, we again saw that Michigan's coaches make a huge impression when kids get on campus. A top flight RB is more a luxury than a need in the 2014 cycle given the haul last year and the interested prospects in 2015. I'd love to see Hood go blue, but regardless of his decision Michigan is in great shape at RB and with Hoke and staff steering the Wolverine ship.

He probably just enjoyed it a bit more than this particular visit to ND (which makes sense, the surprise/eye-opening factor for us is huge, and he already knew what to expect at ND) but overall, ND's still out front.

Steve, do you think Hood is in the "elite" tier of RBs this year? I don't think OSU has much of a shot, but the kid still looks pretty darn good to me.

#3 means squat if the distance between #2 and #3 is the Grand Canyon.

His visit was more enjoyable hanging out with 10 other high school recruits then having a 1 on 1 with B. Kelly all afternoon, but apparently thats good for #2 on his list right now.

#2 actually means squat also

Except the gap between #1 and #2 is much smaller than the gap between #2 and #3.

I wonder if potential playing time is a factor in his ranking ND No. 1 after enjoying his visit to Michigan more? DG and the boys are formidable.

I assume you haven't seen the RBs ND has signed in the last two classes...

This.
