Easy Come, Easy Go: Recruitng News

  • Bryce McNeal, a 4 star WR from Minnesota has decided to de-commit from his verbal and take some visits and consider some other schools including; Minnesota, Colorado, Florida, and Cal. So what does this mean for the Wolverines? not much at this point. McNeal is a highly rated recruit and Michigan fans would love to have him in the fold next year but there is a ton of time before signing day and he could either re-commit or Michigan can go find another WR to replace him. We also have two very "committed" WR' s coming in 2010. Look for Bryce to get a lot of pressure to stay in-state for the new and improved Gophers.
  • Michigan are long shots for highly touted WR's: Shaquelle Evans and Rueben Randle. Long shots yes, but we still have a shot!
  • Rumors were circling that maybe Clemson was interested in Coach Rod for their head coaching position. Like Clemson is a better job then Michigan? Ridiculous. BTW: He is still paying to get out of his WVU contract.
  • Tajh Boyd a 5 star QB just recently de-committed from WVU. There are currently no plans for him to take a trip to Michigan, but it could be interesting. Would it be possible for Michigan to have 4 different dual threat QB's verbally committed at one time or another this year?
  • Lots of positing going on in the 2009 class at many schools. With poor play and coaches being let go or fired on a weekly basis. We will see a ton of kids de-commit and look at other schools.
  • The rumor wire is saying that USC was interested in "Big Will" Campbell but believe he is going to Michigan. That is some good news!
  • Sam Montgomery, a 4-star DE out of Greenwood HS (SC) has Michigan on his final list of schools.

  • For those of you that follow the NFL: Steve Breaston is playing some good football for the Cardinals and just scored his first receiving NFL touchdown against the Cowboys on Sunday. I watched the game and Stevie made some nice catches. Well done!
  • Seems Braylon Edwards might have lost a bet. If I'm not mistaken he had on a Penn State shirt last night doing an interview for MNF. BTW: Braylon had a pretty good game as well!
