Quick Hitters

- Watch out for CB Anthony Standifer (Crete, IL) over the summer. He doesn't have a UM offer yet but looks pretty good on film; my guess is he'll earn an offer at summer camp. If so, Michigan would be one of his leaders for sure. Film link.

- As mentioned earlier this week, Matt Godin is announcing on May 12th; and now it turns out Ron Thompson will be announcing on May 11th. Right now I'd say both are Michigan bound.

- In state CB Terry Richardson has announced that he'll make his college decision at the Under Armor All American game. This is actually pretty major news, because unless Michigan wants to take more than one CB, I don't think Richardson will end up in the class. By the time that UA game rolls around, Michigan could easily have picked up a commitment from Standifer or Wayne Morgan. The Brady Hoke recruiting philosophy seems to be; we're not waiting around for recruits to announce, commit while you still can.

- The spring evaluation period has started, which means the Michigan coaches are out and about visiting prospects. Maybe a few more offers will be going out this week. I'd imagine all of the top Midwest prospects will be getting a visit, including Brionte Dunn.

    Donovan Roberts hasn't announced yet, but don't worry, its going to be Arkansas apparently.

    Just looking at other big programs who've offered Richardson it seems his UA announcement might be a pipe dream unless he's a silent commit somewhere already. USC and the Big 12 schools are already running out of places and Michigan is well on its way to being full. Unless he has a place reserved he may be committing a-la musical chairs by then.

    Benji, I was watching film on FB Dominic Ramacher. The kid like finishing his blocks, good hands receiving, and ran the ball well too.What kind of chance does Michigan have with him?

    We got a full back in Walk On Joey Kerridge last year, so I'm not sure if we need to spend a scholarship on one this year.

    I'm happy to hear you bring up Kerridge. He looks like a real bruiser. The way he runs through people reminds me of how the big TE from ND runs through tackles. I think he'll be a real asset
