The Projected Class

I've been thinking about doing this for a while, and now that Michigan has approximately one third of its class full, it seems like a good time.

I'm going to keep updating this throughout the year, as players come off and on the board, so keep an eye out for it. I'll probably put a link to it at the top of the page.

At this point in time, Michigan only has 18 scholarships available for the class of 2012, however most people think this number will grow above 20 by the time signing day rolls around. Attrition happens in all programs, sometimes seniors won't get invited back for a 5th year, sometimes kids can't handle the academic workload.

In this latest overview, I've given Michigan 28 scholarship places, which seems about right.
