Is this the guy that was supposed to be at 7AM? Great news! Thanks Steve!
Norfleet is an animal, very fast and shifty.

I do believe Northfleet is the guy. Good pickup.

Ok. But he's not exactly a 4-star WR from an SEC school. Isn't that what Sam Webb tweeted?

He's a 4 star WR/RB. Seriously, y'all need to show some backbone. He's a great player.

No its not that. its just they always over hype this stuff. Tired of it.

Right. I'm personally thrilled we got a guy who can come in right away and return punts/kicks and be a threat in doing so. Not many players can run a 4.34.

Also, to those of you mad about getting a short running back, this guy has something to say:
And just a note, insults about a recruit will result in a banning. I don't care that it's NSD. As we learned today, recruits and their mothers read these.

Good pickup...I frankly always wondered why we passed on him.
So we basically traded Stacey for him with Cincy, huh?

Did he really commit at 1 AM? That's ridiculous

Uhhh ... that wasn't my point. I wasn't commenting at all about his ability. I just am confused based on the info we had been given by a usually very reliable source. Another piece of info was that we would never guess because the name was someone never really on our radar until now. That info was obviously false too.

Why do we need another RB? When you already have one this class and got 2 last year. Ooh and going after 2 more in 2013? ..i DON'T get it. ..I knew it was a in state kid tho its always a in state kid this late. This is so typical Michigan. Its like the Carr years all over again.. Whatever.

You are the only person in this thread who has mentioned his height.

Another thing I would like too point out here... not wanting too get into his whole backstory but Northfleet has had it rough growing up I mean real rough. This kid has a chance too be real playmaker in college... and he is as tough as rails. Really really like this pickup.

Wow, you guys are ungrateful. We pick up a top 247 guy (169) and you are complaining? It is one thing if we were running out of spots, but that is not the case.

He was never on our radar before now. We started recruiting him this week. I'm not sure what you're saying.

I saw Norfleet compete this spring and summer at the NLA 7-on-7 in Pittsburgh, the IMG Madden event in Bradenton, Fla., the NLA 7-on-7 national championships in Dallas, and then I was at his season opener this year against Brother Rice. This kid loves playing football and loves to compete. In 7-on-7 in 100-degree plus weather, he never subbed out on offense and defense. He demanded the ball on offense on every snap. He has a relentless motor. He's a great kid on top of it all. Tremendous get for Michigan. I think he will do big things in Ann Arbor!

I don't know much about him. Can someone give me a quick breakdown? Strengths, weaknesses, etc.
