Michigan Tuesday: 2 Commits and A CWS Finals Win!

Congrats to the 200-1 Michigan Wolverines in taking the first game of the 3 game CWS final.  The Wolverines can close the deal tonight, but Vandy is a talented team and I'm sure will fight to take game 2 so there will be a winner take all final in Game 3.  Michigan will face Vandy starter Rocker who just threw a no-hitter a couple weeks ago.   Fingers crossed for tonight!   Go Blue!  7:00 on ESPN for those that want to tune in.

If you didn't know, Michigan's football recruiting director, Matt Dudek tweets out Ralph Wiggum from the Simpsons when there is a new commit.  This is Ralph:

Matt has tweeted out Ralphie 10 times since Sunday.  

More guys committed on Monday:

• Gaige Garcia, is two-sport athlete in the 2020 class.  He is a RB on the football field and also wrestles.  GG is not a rated recruit, so most expect him to be taking a wresting scholarship and taking a PWO to play football.  GG visited last weekend and decided Ann Arbor was the place for him.  He is a confirmed Ralphie commit. 

• Mike Sainristil is a 2019 recruit that enrolled early and made a huge impact on the Michigan coaches this spring with many WR's out with injuries.  The coaches liked Mike when they offered him and loved him after Spring Ball.  That type of play got Eamonn Dennis another New England athlete an offer in the 2020 class and he accepted and announced his commitment on Monday.  Dennis is 5'10 and 175 pounds and listed as a 3 star athlete, his offer list included Duke, GT, Iowa, Ole Miss, Purdue, Syracuse, and Mississippi State.  

• Another visitor from last weekend and a guy that also visited in April, Jeffery Persi a 3 star OT committed to Michigan late on Monday.   Jeff is a former TE from San Juan Capistrano, CA that moved to OT last year and big time programs took notice.   Jeff is 6'7 and 265 pounds which is a great frame to play college football.   He is a rising 3 star with offers from the likes of UCLA, Wash, CAL, Oklahoma, USC, BC, Arizona, ASU, WSU, TCU, Nebraska, Northwestern, and many more.  

I believe that is 7 confirmed Ralphie's.   

Some maybe concerned about the number of 3 star players Michigan is recruiting.   They are recruiting guys that fit the #Speed in Space offense and of course Don Brown's defense.   Don't forget that these players have yet to play their senior year and will likely move up in the rankings.
