Also, I think your final four is very realistic. I would bet that guys like Diamond that have told the coaching staff that they are waiting till NSD will still have a spot no matter how many OL are verballed (as long as we dont have 28 verbals). If we only have 27 verbals come NSD (including Garnett) and Diamond wants to commit Hoke will still take him. As far as Diggs, if he were further along in the process with us I think we would take him, but there is an academic concern as well. If we did grab a guy like Diggs or any other WR, what does having that 3rd Wr commit do to our sales pitch of immediate playing time for 2013 elite WR's? If the roster looks full of FR Wideouts the depth chart maybe less attractive. Would Ty Issac be considering us as highly if we had brought in Dunn? I think the staff really like that Treadwell kid and don't want to oversign the WR class this year, because with Shane Morris coming in 2013 skill players are going to want to come play with him.<br /><br />Michigan 31<br />Virginia Tech 20<br /><br />Denard Robinson MVP 16-24 220 yards 2 TD's and 16 carries for 112 yards and 1 TDCalebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14107687928010064506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587812383588742150.post-1204877554016784752012-01-03T09:15:49.292-08:002012-01-03T09:15:49.292-08:00Also forgot to add a question.

Any year we bring a new young d-lineman, especially after losing such a force like Mike Martin, it is so exciting. <br /><br />Also I was watching the interview with Garnett and he seems to be owning fellas just like we are hearing Kalis. <br /><br />@Daniel Taylor,<br />I think his recruitment is just very low profile because more than likely he will keep everyone waiting until signing day. As much as I would like to see another top 10 recruit, I think after Chesson signing and all the talk with the Tennessee WR Arnett ttransfer talk really hurts the chances of Diggs going Blue. Although, he is good buddies with Countess and was very impressed that Countess momved to a starting spot so soon.<br /><br />IMO, best possible last four would be (what we have left correct??):<br /><br />1. Garnett<br />2. Wright<br />3. Reeves<br />4. Diamond<br /><br />I know the chances for all four is slim, but these boys all want to wear the Maize n' Blue. I think it's more if they feel there is room on the team mainly concerning Diamond. I think he may be Blue but gets concerned with Garnett coming in. He may feel there is no room. <br /><br />As with everyone, I am excited to see the game tonight. <br /><br />FROM THE TOLEDO AREA: GO BLUE BABY! I talk with everyone around here and all I hear is moaning on why MSU should be in our spot and how we are overrated. My answer everytime: "I remember when we had 3 losses this season... Oh that's right we will only have 2 even after the SUGAR FALLS!"<br /><br />GET SOME!<br />Shane P out.ChuckoftheCrophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00300916476089933429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587812383588742150.post-40500507281535715072012-01-03T08:35:35.245-08:002012-01-03T08:35:35.245-08:00Whatever happened to Stefon Diggs' recruitment...Whatever happened to Stefon Diggs' recruitment?Daniel Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04860117561438025410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587812383588742150.post-86543403021531646902012-01-03T08:13:19.618-08:002012-01-03T08:13:19.618-08:00I read that Ondre Pipkins has been absolutely unbl...I read that Ondre Pipkins has been absolutely unblockable for the West All-American team. Rivals has ranked each teams top performers from practice so far (includes all positions) and Pipkins is #1 over all so far for the West. Here it is from Rivals:<br /><br />"Pipkins is a monster physically - he already looks like BJ Raji or Vince Wilfork. He is one of the most physically imposing defensive tackeles we have seen in awhile. At the point of attack, he is impossible to get on his heels and he penetrates quickly and athletically for a big man. Pipkins is going to be a load for the East offensive line to handle; he was simply dominanting a good group of West linemen in the early session of practice."<br /><br />As for the East squad, Kyle Kalis was rated as the sixth best performer so far, behind DE Jonathan Bullard, DT Tommy Schutt, WR Stephon Diggs, OT DJ Humpries and OLB/S Elijah Shumate. <br /><br />"Kalis moved to guard from his regular right tackle position and he took to it very well. He came out of his stance low and with power and was aggressive in team run drills. In one-on-ones, he engaged, locked up and rode his opponents out of the play consistently. He could play either tackle or guard in college with equal effectiveness and his ability in run and pass protection is balanced. He went against some big defensive tackles and excelled while the other interior linemen for the East squad struggled noticeably."Calebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14107687928010064506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587812383588742150.post-32434545481804486862012-01-03T07:53:36.698-08:002012-01-03T07:53:36.698-08:00Has anyone else read/heard that OT Kyle DOdson may...Has anyone else read/heard that OT Kyle DOdson may be taking an official to UM on the 21st? With Wisconsin's Paul Cryst leaving to be the head coach at Pitt (and rumors that he is taking the OL coach with him) Dodson has re-opened his recruitment. DOdson is Rivals' #20 OT (higher than Bars, Braden and Stacey). <br /><br />On Yuri Wright, maybe he set to announce this weekend, because he is already sold on UM without a visit. Maybe it's wishful thinking, or maybe he has already decided and wants to take a couple of free trips. I think he announces Blue and visits AA next weekend and then does NOT take his last trip.Calebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14107687928010064506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587812383588742150.post-299492145107852242012-01-03T07:52:55.059-08:002012-01-03T07:52:55.059-08:00UPDATE: During this morning's press conference...UPDATE: During this morning's press conference, Tennessee head coach Derek Dooley stated the school has decided to grant DeAnthony Arnett's transfer request. <br /><br />"Derek Dooley plans to grant DeAnthony Arnett a release closer to home," Josh Ward of WNML tweeted.

MSU was behind UM in the rankings last week. Both teams win their games this past week, and MSU jumps up 6 spots in both polls, UM only 3 spots in both polls? Granted MSU beat Indiana, but UM beat a Minnesota team that is now 12-3. UM lost to Duke with a chance to win at the end still, and also beat #8 Memphis. Granted their early season schedule otherwise wasn't much, but they are 2-0 in the B1G, PSU wasn't BAD and Minn again 12-3 now. I know MSU beat Gonzaga and lost to UNC and Duke back to back, has been on a winning streak and beat Gonzaga and Indiana, but they haven't played anyone else. I see no reason why they should jump a team like UM, who was ranked higher before the season, and jump 6 spots when UM only goes up 3 spots. Worst part is, if UM blows out Indiana this Thursday, they won't get as much praise as MSU did.JCreagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14899785983149117847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587812383588742150.post-34092423184656175942012-01-03T07:22:15.589-08:002012-01-03T07:22:15.589-08:00Jeff Tinker, with regards to Demar Dorsey, I think...Jeff Tinker, with regards to Demar Dorsey, I think he would do well at U of M.

Ticket Bowl...My two cents on yesterdays bowl game.<br /><br />Ticket Bowl-Penn State never got on the plane to go to the game and it showed. That whole situation at PSU is toxic. I feel bad for the upper classmen that are stuck there. I think Reeves goes blue any day now.<br /><br />Gator Bowl-Both teams sucked. But OSU sucked more. Why OSU did not play like they did againist UM I will never know?<br /><br />Outback Bowl- Has MSU used up there 9 lives yet. The only thing the prevent D does is prevent you from winning just ask the Bulldogs.<br /><br />Capital One Bowl- Neb. is not as good as most people thought. This game was so boring even cheerleader fell asleep.LOL<br /><br />The Rose Bowl- Great game. But who spikes the ball with 2 seconds remaining in the game? I guess its the the Badgers. How dumb was that. Hate to see the Badger senior go out like that. If the Ducks are not playing for a chance at the NC next year I will be surprised.<br /><br />Fiesta Bowl- Another great game. Stanford needed 4 guys to cover Blackmon.<br /><br />I heard the rumors about DR was on Twitter. Still hope they are not true.<br /><br />I have said a couple different time that the ship has sailed on Diamond. Well I may have reacted to fast. I think UM has a real shot at him. This is a gut feeling and nothing else. But i think UM will make a stong push for him on his OV. Even if UM lands Garnett.<br /><br />Prediction, I am torn on this. If UM is health I believe UM wins big. If DR is not 100% it maybe close. In the end I believe the game is in the hands of DR and Will Campbell. UM wins 31-24.Jer89https://www.blogger.com/profile/16265222869384827060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7587812383588742150.post-73072796482953751632012-01-03T06:15:48.481-08:002012-01-03T06:15:48.481-08:00Is there any chance that Demar Dorsey could end up...Is there any chance that Demar Dorsey could end up back at Michigan.
