"It's a tight end/H-Back kind of deal. He's a utility guy, who will be motioning from fullback, get work done in the slot. They'll move him around a lot. They sat him down and told him how they're going to use him. They said he'd do a lot of what Kevin Koger did last year."

Both of us are right.

Yeah he is an athlete right now because he also plays DE. I guess we will have to wait and see if he grows more to see if he ends up as a pure TE or as a H-back.
 
We may have another 12 commit OL Dan Gibbs sent out a tweet
Officially playing football at Michigan next year! Couldn't be happier with my choice.

He is a 2 star OG out of Birminghan

Its being reported that he is a preferred walk on and not on a scholarship.

6ft 7 weighs 320 another huge road grader type OL. I gotta say I love the way we have bulked up along the line with mean tough players. Old School U of M football.
 
as far as Hill goes he played 7 0n 7 with Shane Morris. We now have 5 members of that team at U of M. I hope we can still get Adam Breneman. My dream offensive skill players for the 13 class would be Breneman, Treadwell, and Tulley-Tillman to go with Morris.

Just seen an article that said Kozan was down to Auburn and Iowa. Not a mention of UM.


BOOOOO

"Just seen"

What are you, a 5th grader?

Link to the article, mention of the publication in which you saw it, anything else?

Not ground breaking news, its from an Auburn source. I didn't put much stock in it.

However since your all hyped up, and think I am leaving out some mystical information. I provided you a link.

Now calm down, before I beat you down like a 5th grade bully.<-----Of course you would have to come to my house. I am not putting any actual effort into it.

Breneman will be extremely hard to pull from PSU

Kid is huge. He needs to bulk up on the upper body strength for a kid that size. I am sure some hard work in the UM weight room and he will be rolling.

There was a time prior to RR where Michigan owned Pennsylvania.

With JoePa gone and Urban Legend coaching OSU, I look forward to all PA athletes looking first to UM once more.

That won't happen for at least 3 years. PSU still has that allure to Pennsylvania recruits and unless they get destroyed this year they will continue to keep most of the big name guys in place.

A major scandal happened there (one of the worst in history), the Alums don't approve of their new HC (0% support, it's worse than the RR situation) and their recruiting class got poached and left with very little talent (By fellow B1G teams). I'm going to fast track this one and say any top recruit would be crazy to commit there unless family is the only thing that matters to them. The program died with JoePa.

Before JoePa 'recovered' his legacy in the final years, after many years of underperforming expectations, people said the reason he was struggling was because he lost the NJ recruiting base to all the up and coming Big East and ACC programs. Other schools have always had success recruiting in PA -- nothing based on Sandusky, etc will make big, significant changes in the regional recruiting battles going forward.
 
I saw that. I also saw a recent poll showi recruits are basically anti-PSU 75/25 or so .....

2013 TE/DE Jake Butt has named Michigan his far and away #1.

not to sound like a teenage boy, but LMFAO! BUTT!



on another note; I'd hate to say this, because I like the games with Penn State, but I think in about 3-4 years they'll be the equivalent of their basketball team.

It's probably true. Penn State fans must be so pissed. I'm not going to lie, if this happend at Michigan I would probably cry.
 
Jaron Dukes.....Anyone hear anything good about him.

Mgoblog makes it sound like he is a lock for UM. He has nice size, but that about all I know.

Visiting on Friday, Scout says UM has always been his favorite school, hinting at a commitment.

nobody in recruiting is a lock, look at Jordan Diamond, but he is most likely going to be in the 2013 class. I wouldn't be surprised to see him commit this weekend and he will most likely be a 4* by the end of his season if not after the camps. He is a monster of a receiver.
