Michigan Friday: Moe Ways Then One

Sorry the post is late today, life got in the way.  Short and sweet today.

Michigan got their second WR commit yesterday in local boy Maurice Ways.  Moe is 6'3 and 185 pounds from Detroit Country Day and is in the mold of the prototype WR that Big Al wants.  Moe is a 3 star WR to all the services and had offers from The MAC, Pitt, Rutgers, Kansas and Iowa.  

The reported downside is, he is not a "burner" and has questionable hands.  Either way the Wolverine coaches like what they saw and think he has a nice upside.   I like when Michigan keeps local BCS talent home, even if they take a bit of a "risk" on a 3 star prospect.   (insert Mike Hart was a 3 star prospect here)

I believe Michigan would take 2 more WR's in this class if one of those guys were elite and attrition moves the class closer to 20 then 16.  If not, only expect one more.   Moe is the 7th player committed to the Wolverines in the 2014 class and now there are less then 10 spots remain in this small class.

• If you are watching the NFL draft tonight, this should be the night Denard goes off the board.   I think the best spot for him is with a traditional pro style QB where he can get some easy throws and can sub in for the wildcat or even a couple surprise throws every now and then.   My prediction is a team like he NY Giants.   Just a guess.

• Ricardo Miller will graduate from U of M next month and will play for UMass next year.  He will also try to get a redshirt year back when he got injured his freshman year.
