Recruits and Misc info..........


*programing note: the ND preview will be posted this afternoon.

I watched some of the Texas High School game last night`on ESPN 2 mostly because it featured Michigan recruit and 4 Star QB Shavodrick Beaver. I was impressed by his size, looks to have a good arm, and has nice escape-ability skills. He looks a little thin and needs to meet Mike Barwis as soon as he gets to campus. With the non-transfer of Mike Cox the Beaver - Cox backfield in future years at Michigan looks like a strong possibility.


Seems Michigan may get some news on the recruiting trail regarding one of their top position needs with a few DE's announcing soon. Five-star defensive end Anthony LaLota will make his college announcement tonight at 8:00. Michigan is in the running and hopefully he chooses to Go Blue.


Phoenix area defensive end Craig Roh has Michigan on his short list but will be visiting USC this weekend for the Crash in Compton.


Also in an interesting side note, Nick Perry's future at USC maybe decided today. It seems Nick had a clearing house issue and was not admitted to USC this fall. If you remember, Nick Perry was a highly touted DE from Detroit that choose USC over Michigan on signing day.


USC recruit Nick Perry is appealing a course grade to the NCAA Clearinghouse for approval but must be certified by Friday or he will be unable to enroll this semester. Perry, a highly regarded defensive end from Detroit, would need to be cleared and fly out to Los Angeles on Friday for any chance to be on the football team this season. Venice tailback Curtis McNeal is in a similar situation. USC officials are trying to get the pair cleared by but uncertain over the prospects. USC hopes Perry and McNeal will try to enroll in the spring semester if they are not cleared but they would be free to go to other colleges
