Wolverine Wednesday: Welcomes Caden Kolesar

If you not old enough to remember John Kolesar at Michigan.  He was a very good, tough WR that I have memories of him catching a 77 yard TD against Ohio State.  The QB that threw that pass?  Jim Harbaugh.   I'm not old enough to remember John's father Bill at Michigan but he also wore the Maize and Blue as well.

His son Caden Kolesar decided to play for the Wolverines yesterday.   The first report was he was joining the team as a Gray Shirt and then reports came out as a PWO.  Doesn't matter he is heading to A2 to play for the team he loves.

Caden is a 5'10 195 pound safety that played for St. Edwards in Ohio.   Caden's team won the State title a couple of weeks ago and Caden was named to the All Ohio Team.   24/7 lists Caden as a 3 star Athlete with offers from the BGSU, Akron, Holy Cross, Robert Morris, and Army.  As you might imagine, the Kolesar's are just over the moon with his decision:

“They all cried — my sister cried, my mom cried, my brother cried. Everybody is crying,” John Kolesar said Tuesday. “My brother, Doug, said when he called Mom, ‘I couldn’t keep myself together I was crying on the phone.’ They’re such big Michigan fans. They’re all ecstatic.”

“We are just thrilled,” John Kolesar said. “He’s worked so hard these last four years in high school. He was awarded with a first-team all-state selection, a state championship, and now the opportunity to play football at the University of Michigan is just remarkable.”

The Legacy Continues!

• Reports are that Zach Harrison will tweet out where he is going a week from today and fax in his LOI.  Zach's twitter is private so he will announce just to his friends and family.  Both OSU and Michigan are optimistic he will head their way.  Which probably means he will end up a Penn State.  

• Sam Webb thinks it will be interesting if Dax Hill signs a week from today or not.  If he doesn't sign with Bama, that gives Michigan plenty of time to re-convince him Michigan is the place to be.  

• WOTS is that things are trending in the right direction with CT 4 Star WR Cornelius Johnson.  His mom is a Michigan grad (Medical School) and his grandparents are here locally.  It seems ND and Stanford might be going in a different direction at WR.  CJ visits this weekend.
